Description
Come listen to Nicole Massey-Pratt from the Illinois Small Business and Development Center International Trade Center speak on demystifying exports and take your business to new heights!
Today, it’s easier than ever for small businesses to sell goods and services globally. With over 96% of the world’s consumers living outside of the United States borders, this presents a tremendous opportunity for U.S. businesses to increase sales and profits. Despite this amazing business growth opportunity, fear and confusion often prevent small business from reaching new heights with export success.
Join Nicole Massey-Pratt of the SBDC International Trade Center, as she discusses what you need to know when you go global and how to get there.
Topics include:
- Exporting misconceptions. Do they exist?
- Why should I go global?
- When is my company ready to export?
- What mechanics should I use when of going global?
- How can I sustain global success?
- What are some common mistakes I should avoid?
