Find the right distributors or agents with our sales export team
Starting in a new market is a challenge, even if your company already has extensive export experience. our sales export is active in over 30 city with local experts, who know the market, know the culture and speak the language. They support your export team in entering a new market with less risks, less hassle and much faster.
Your personal export developer
One of our team will serve as your local export developer, who will set up your distribution channels, get your sales going and expand your coverage. You will pay us a moderate monthly fee for our activities, plus a commission on the sales. The minimum period to hire us is three months, after that you can decide monthly to pause or stop our support.
Agents or distributors that really sell
If you already have a proven offering and your export processes are in place, we will help you apply it in new countries. Agents or distributors are essential to get exposure in the market. We will not only find them, but also make sure they will sell for you. This is what our local export developers typically will do:
| Month 1-3 | Preparing a market verification report and entry strategy Compiling a long-list of potential partners Finding at least three interested and suitable agents or distributors |
| Month 4-6 | Contracting a first distribution channel Drafting a joint marketing plan with them Training them and providing sales and logistics support |
| Month 7-9 | Finding more distribution channels Additional business development and public relations Channel target setting and management |
If necessary we can intensify our activities to get faster results. We will have monthly calls with you to discuss our progress and align with your goals.
We charge a moderate retainer plus a commission
Our monthly retainer varies per country, based on the costs of living.
| Target City | Our monthly retainer |
| Tier–1 | +++++ |
| Tier–2 | ++++ |
| Tier-3 | +++ |
You can see us as the temporary and part-time extension of your team, for often less costs than flying there economy class and staying for four days. Also see our article: what are the real costs of an export manager?
In addition, our commission percentage ranges from 2% to 8%, depending on the industry. You will pay this commission up to a period of two years after the last paid retainer, but only for the channels that we have been involved in in identifying, setting up or managing. If you don’t like the idea of a commission, we can also offer an alternative with just a (higher) monthly fee.
