In the fiercely competitive landscape of global B2B trade, securing the right overseas buyers efficiently is critical but increasingly challenging. Traditional methods—cold emailing, attending fairs, and relying on fragmented databases—often fall short, producing low conversion rates, inflated acquisition costs, and imprecise targeting. To shift gears, innovative solutions like the ABKe Client Acquisition Engine harness the power of customs data and artificial intelligence, driving precise and scalable overseas buyer identification.
Most exporters still depend on legacy lead generation tactics that chip away at their budgets and labor force:
These drawbacks contribute to an alarming customer acquisition cost (CAC) that can eat up to 30% of export revenue in some sectors, stalling sustainable growth.
ABKe integrates globally authoritative customs data with a vast corporate database exceeding 230 million enterprises across 80+ countries. This expansive data pool forms the backbone of an AI-driven dynamic web crawler that scans and updates buyer intelligence continuously.
The engine’s multi-layered technology stack includes:
