Most manufacturers in the UK could only aspire to be as good as some of our international rivals. On average only 10% of most manufactures business is achieved through export sales. A high percentage of these sales will generally be to Ireland. Typically, many manufacturers only have one or two representatives in overseas markets.

What do manufacturers do when they want to begin exporting?

• Spend months trawling through the web looking for suitable partners to locate maybe ten or fifteen large companies that promote themselves well on Google?

• Look for consultants that charge an arm and a leg to find one, maybe two agents that barely brings them a return on their investment?

• Spend a fortune on exhibiting at and visiting trade shows and exhibitions just because its something they’ve always done. A show where the number of visitors they receive is purely based on chance and quality of distributor they meet is based on luck.

• Spend a fortune on SEO and Ad words where their company will appear somewhere in the mist of competitors. By chance a potential customer may click on their site.

• Exporting products to markets via a distributor who was selected by trial and error who will select only one or two products from their product range.
