Im internationalen Handel hängt vieles an der richtigen Formulierung, und genau dafür ist dieser Kurs Gold wert. Die Muster für Angebotsschreiben und Reklamationen konnte ich sofort in meiner täglichen Korrespondenz verwenden. Besonders die Verhandlungsphrasen haben mir geholfen, in Gesprächen mit ausländischen Lieferanten souverän und höflich aufzutreten. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die im globalen Geschäft sicher kommunizieren wollen.

무역 실무에 필요한 협상 표현과 영문 비즈니스 서신 양식이 알차서 해외 거래처와 메일 주고받는 게 훨씬 수월해졌어요.
