BUSINESS AND SOCIAL CONTACTS
Distance is no obstacle nowadays and personal contacts have become the most efficient means of promoting a better understanding in all spheres of human activity. Foreign trade is no exception.
Normally, businessmen keep in touch through correspondence or telephone calls, but there’s no denying the fact that major problems can be solved more effectively through a personal meeting. Both parties have equal opportunities to hear out their counterpart’s arguments and come to an agreement on the business in hand. Since a business trip is always limited in time, a businessman makes appropriate arrangements prior to his departure or immediately on arrival. Among other things he can make an appointment by phone or by cable. It is customary for businessman to draw up a tentative program of the points they would like to take up during the forthcoming meeting.
These tips may come in handy for a businessman in trip:
It is essential to be punctual in business. If you cannot keep the appointment you should notify your counterpart in advance and fix a new date.
On a forma! occasion (talks, a working lunch, a reception) a businessman is expected to wear a suit and tie. Informal occasion (a sightseeing tour, an outing, a visit to a private home) do not call for formal clothe; one should be dressed casually.
