Strategy
for Export Sales- strategising - where, when and how and with what to compete
- hunting - identifying the hunting grounds and tactics
- attracting - getting the attention of qualified prospects
- engaging - beginning the relationship
- monitoring - keeping an eye on progress
- nurturing - broadening and deepening the sales activity
- converting - finalising the deal
Remember:
- Trade Shows are mostly about attracting attention and engaging with potential or actual clients and partners
- Do the strategising and hunting before the event or you will fail
- Do the monitoring, nurturing and converting mostly after the event or you risk wasting all that time and cost
