Breaking into the international marketplace can catapult a company into increased profitability and growth more rapidly than when selling to a domestic market.

But how do you market your company successfully to overseas buyers? What can you do to provide the right information to prospective clients that are informative and engaging? How can you stand out from the crowd?

The most common promotional approach is to provide brochures. While brochures do play an important role, they can be uninspiring and ill equipped way to convey a real feeling for what an organization does and how they operate.

If you operate a small business, you may feel that your income potential is quite limited. However, you can increase and diversify your income through international trade.

1. Importing

Retail store owners can find additional products to sell from foreign manufacturers, distributors, and other suppliers.
Advantages of importing include increased product selection, lower costs, and increased income.
You may even decide to go exclusively into the import business and become a wholesale distributor.

2. Exporting

Manufacturers can find new customers for their products in foreign countries.
Perhaps consumers in your country have lost interest in your product. It may have become obsolete because of technological advances. A foreign market, however, may be desirous of that very product.

Maybe there is an economic slump in your country. Another country may be experiencing a boom. Sales from customers in that country may help stabilize your income.

Exporting can also help smooth the peaks and valleys of your income. For instance, if you sold winter sporting goods, you could sell to both northern and southern hemispheres to help offset the seasonal nature of your business.
Of course, you might also consider selling sporting goods for all the seasons and still export to other countries to increase and diversify your income.

You could also become an Export Management Agent. Arrange for other domestic companies to sell their products to foreign corporations and earn a ten percent commission.

You would think that selling to foreign customers would be quite risky. However, use of letters of credit can protect all parties. An Export Management Agent might actually arrange for ninety percent of the sale to be paid directly to the domestic supplier and ten percent to be paid directly to him.

3. Licensing

Consider becoming a licensing agent. Earn royalties by arranging for foreign corporations to manufacture and sell the products of domestic companies.

4. Finder’s Fees

Imagine the possibilities for earning finder’s fees in international trade!

You can earn fees from domestic companies for finding foreign buyers (or for finding suitable imports from foreign suppliers). You can also earn fees from foreign companies for finding domestic corporations that will buy their products (or for finding suitable suppliers and products from domestic corporations).

5. Drop Shipping

Visualize receiving an order from a customer based in a foreign country and not having to be bothered with shipping and handling the product. No customs declarations or brokers are required by you. This is because your drop ship supplier is handling those details.

You might collect $100.00 plus shipping of $15.00 from your foreign customer. You then simply send your customer’s order to your drop ship supplier with your payment of $65.00 (consisting of $50.00 wholesale cost plus $15.00 shipping). Your drop shipper will now fulfill the order. Congratulations! You just made fifty dollars.

6. Mail Order

Add a mail order service to your existing business operation. Manufacturers, retail stores, and other businesses can increase their sales by using this additional method of selling that is very conducive to international trade.

7. Internet Marketing

You can also extend your reach to worldwide customers by means of the Internet. Methods of obtaining foreign business include affiliate marketing, online auctions, online stores, and websites.

Finding the right employee can be a piece of cake when you know where to look and how to look. By understanding the advantages and disadvantages of the most popular ways to conduct an employee search you can better increase your chances of finding a good employee. Finally, by knowing how to recruit new employees, not just hire them, you can save yourself a lot of trouble in the end.

The process of finding the right employee is a daunting task for many employers who are unsure how to go about the task, or even where to begin. Fortunately, there are a number of services and methods available that can make an employee search much simpler.

Of course, one of the most popular methods for recruiting employees is to use the traditional help wanted poster and classified listing. It should be noted; however that this method really only works well if you have a traditional storefront with a brick and mortar building. In addition, you should be aware that with this type of employee search you are generally only going to receive the most general and traditional recruits. While this is a reliable, and free, method for finding employees; you are much more likely to attract applicants who are unqualified and who may have questionable work ethics.

Public services can make the process of finding good employees a little easier without spending any money doing it. This is because each state has an employment service office that can help you with your employee search. These offices are often referred to as the ‘unemployment office’; a nickname most states would like to do away with. In reality, these offices are affiliated with the United States Employment Service and Department of Labor. They can help you with everything from screening applicants with aptitude tests to actually receiving resumes and applications for you so that you don’t have to interrupt your daily business operations with the inundations. Best of all-these services are completely free.

If you want to step up your efforts in finding the right employee, you might consider a fee based search. Employment and recruitment agencies handle screening, background checks and aptitude tests in order to help you in finding good employees. They can also provide advise to you on how to recruit employees. Be aware, though; this service will cost you.

Temporary personnel services are also a solution that may be able to help you in finding employees. This type of services normally works better if you are experiencing a temporary labor shortage rather than a permanent staff person; however. The big benefit to using a temporary personnel service is that they will generally handle multiple tasks such as payroll, tax deductions, fringe and other costs associated with an employee.

So, once you have decided how you are going to go about finding employee; do you know how to recruit a new employee? Do you know what to look for in a candidate to know whether they will make a dedicated employee?
Unfortunately, many companies and organizations rush into the hiring decision in an effort to alleviate labor shortage problems without giving any real thought to beyond whether the person has the skills and is available to whether they will make a truly good employee or not.

Many of these problems can be alleviated with a good solid interview and background check. A good interview involves more than asking when a candidate can start to work and whether they have the requisite experience. You need to delve into their motivations and determine whether they will be a good fit for your team. Furthermore, a rushed timeline is no reason not to perform a background check. It may take a little longer but the wealth of information you can uncover regarding a candidate in a background check can save you multiple headaches down the road.

Learn about the various ways in which capital can be acquired. You may be surprised that the bank and your savings account are not the only loan sources available.

Starting a business requires funding in the form of start-up capital and initial operating costs. Although personal savings and loans may be adequate to start a small business along with a great idea, some businesses require a lot more capital that can be born by savings alone. Of course, with greater capital required comes a higher risk level as more sales and revenue would need to be generated by the business in order to support the repayment amount as well as to produce a healthy return on investment percentage.

The second option to obtaining capital would be from people that you know, such as friends, family and relatives. Equity financing could be obtained from there sources, or just as a low-cost loan payable over a certain period of time. This will be a great benefit to you as you won’t have to adhere to conditions and the higher interest rates imposed by financing intuitions or other stakeholders.

The most common source of financing would be from lenders such as banks and credit unions. These organizations are in the business of providing financing and will impose a particular interest rate on your loan. Apart from that, they may impose restrictions on conditions on repayments and even on limitations on the usage of funds provided to you. This type of loans are normally known as debt financing, as obtaining capital from these sources increases the debt of your company.

Equity financing can be obtained by other shareholders or venture capitalists. Capital obtained from venture capitalists are regarded as an investment into the company and not as a loan. As venture capitalists are very selective in the projects that they fund, as they want to ensure that their investments pay off multiple-fold. Therefore, venture capitalist funded projects are subjected to scrutiny from venture capitalists in terms of management, decision making and accounting procedures.

The U.S. government has realized that the importance of funding to fuel the growth of small businesses and thus have launched the Small Business Administration organization for this purpose. There are various loans offered based on the nature of the business, the amount of financing required as well as the repayment period. Apart from that, certain types of loans are funded by lending partners of the SBA, with the SBA acting as a guarantor for the loan. This way, a longer loan repayment period can be obtained, with a lower risk on the lender.

There are also many other capital sources that can be obtained by a small business. This would be a loan from a credit card, employee stock ownership, home loan refinancing or even purchase order financing. All of these are just glimpses of the various ways in which money can be obtained to start a business, each of them with varying cost levels. Therefore, it is up to the business owner to decide on the type of financing source would be most suited for the business.

Once you have determined your financing source, you will then need to develop a business plan that you will propose to your potential capital source. This requires expertise in producing a viable and impressive business plan, and therefore needs to be as comprehensive as possible in provided business information, forecasts and budgets.
The first section of the business plan would be on the background of the company. Here, details of the name of the business, the physical location, the amount required for the startup and information on the business owners are provided. Then, the next section will be a holistic explanation on the nature of the business, its uniqueness, the long-term potential as well as the sustainability of the business. A listing of key success factors as well as the strength of the business idea would be ideal to be used to support the business plan.

After that, a listing of the management team of the company, their background and credentials as well as their stake in the company is drafted. Information on the industry and market of the business will follow, where the maturity and opportunities available within the industry is highlighted. Finally, critical financial information, incorporating forecasts and budgeting are listed. This would be an area of utmost importance to anyone evaluating your plan, and thus needs to be done with accuracy to create a positive impression.

Overnight Success Mastermind Matt Bacak Unveils His Simply Strategy for Achieving Financial Wealth and Success

Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.

InternetMillionaireMind.com today launched a brand new e-book that is poised to turn the way individuals think about wealth and success upside-down. An invaluable resource for anyone who thinks becoming a millionaire is a matter of blind luck or “who you know,” Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mind aims to show people just how simple achieving profound wealth can be.

Suwanee, GA (PRWEB via PR Web Direct) April 19, 2006 — In his newest e-book, Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mind, author Matt Bacak brings the tricks behind his own instant success to the masses. In so doing, he’s tossing traditional millionaire wisdom out the window and replacing it with a brand new perception: Unprecedented wealth is just a mindset away. Individuals who are interested in becoming rich beyond their wildest imaginations can learn more about the e-book by clicking here.

Last month, Forbes magazine unveiled its annual list of the world’s billionaires. This year, 793 people made the cut, representing a 566% increase since the magazine’s inaugural billionaire rankings just twenty years ago. The world is getting richer, and each year more individuals are sharing a piece of that coveted pie.

Contrary to popular belief, however, wealth achievement isn’t a matter of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer, nor is it a case of rubbing shoulders with the rich or toiling away one’s life in millionaire pursuit. Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mind turns such myths topsy-turvy and reveals the true secrets that differentiate the rich from the not-so-rich.

“Forget what your parents, your peers and your business professors warned you about pursuing wealth. Regardless of where you came from, you can secure the richness you always dreamed about, and there is indeed a fast track to financial success. I’m living proof of it,” states author Matt Bacak. Now an Internet millionaire himself, he went from lower middle class cot sleeper to mansion snoozer in a matter of three short years. In fact, at one point he had even hit rock bottom, drowning in bankruptcy while in hot pursuit of his dreams. Today, he’s raking in annual revenues of $2,038,430.19.

The good news is, you don’t have to risk bankruptcy or even devote three years of your life to figuring out to become a millionaire, because Bacak has already done it for you. Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mind breaks the process down into a formula that is so easy to follow and implement that it comes with a 90-day, no-questions-asked, money-back guaranteed. This e-book proves once and for all that achieving financial wealth really is just a state of mind.
