New Business AccountIn general, there is the tendencies as shown below about the goods supplied by a new business account:

1. Initial price of the goods is inexpensive.

2. However, the quality of the goods is not sufficient.

Due to the above reasons, the various modifications are required in order to comply with the quality level of Kubota and/or the customer.When adopting the above Business Account for other project, the quoted price will be higher than the initial price.

That is the result that the Business Account is assumed the extra cost based on the experience of the initial job with Kubota in order to comply with the required quality of Kubota.

Therefore, due evaluation on the price and the quality is necessary, and do not simply judge as unadoptable because the estimated price is high.From the above, try to find out an agreeable suitable price through the negotiation with the Business Account, then, judge whether the Business Account in question is adoptable or not by recognizing that the previous business experience with Kubota should be evaluated even if the quoted price is a little bit higher than others.
