The benefits of working with The Export to Group
Customer retention is fundamental to business success. Many businesses are excellent at winning new business both domestically and internationally, applying all the resources available to them and cheering each hard won account—meanwhile the established customer base is gradually eroded by competitors doing exactly the same to an under resourced, inadequately trained and mismanaged sales support function. |
The Export to Group can provide professional, commercial based assistance to new and established exporters
• How to start exporting?
• How to chose which market to export to?
• How to ensure that products/services are suitable and compliant?
• How to find clients/partners/distributors/agents
• How to invoice and protect against financial exposure?
• How to communicate and promote the business?
• How to negotiate contracts?
• How to access financial support to visit new markets or trade fairs?
• How to follow up?
Businesses change supplier more often due to poor service than price or new product innovation. In a local, domestic market this can be readily addressed. When your client, distributor or partner is hundreds or thousands of miles away, possibly in a different time zone, certainly working in a different culture, possibly also a different language, the challenge of customer retention is that much greater.
Supporting key accounts or distributors internationally is tough
New market entrants have a decision to make
Having won your new customer, appointed your new distributor or entered into an exciting new international partnership how are you now going to maximize the return on the investment that you have already made to create this exciting new opportunity?
