Get Feet on the Ground

You may learn about a country from online research but firsthand experience gives you a feel for what the local culture and marketplace are like. 

Most work can be done remotely, but it is also good to plan for the complexities of travel.

Find the Right People

  • Hire locals in the country as they know the language and understand the culture. They also understand the target customer. Drawback: they don't know your company and products well, and you may have to invest in added training.
  • Hire expatriates within the company. It can help you penetrate a market with people already familiar with your company and products.

Train Your Team

Good training is done during the onboarding process and thereafter at regular intervals. 

Locals need more training on product knowledge, while ex-pats will need training around the local market and culture.

Iterate to Great

Implement a plan and track the results, then study the results. Keep the principles and processes that work and discard the rest.

 

There will always be limitations and room for growth, and by setting high standards, you could set yourself up for success.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Giovanna Scalzone
