VIRTUAL PRESENCE PROGRAM
Cost Effective International Customer Development
For Client Companies in the U.S. and Europe
The Need
At some point most companies must contemplate the justification, the timing,
the cost factors, and the sheer level of effort required to “go international,” and
especially to go transatlantic. It may represent a major new market, but
it is also a big step, and can be a big ‘misstep’ if not conducted
in view of the cold hard realities of the marketplace. What could be useful
in this situation is to have the opportunity to “test” the marketplace
in a careful, calculated manner.
The Technique
Nordic American offers companies the opportunity to have a physical presence
in the U.S. or North European marketplace without having to establish a foreign
entity, hire or relocate employees overseas, be concerned about foreign regulatory
issues and taxes, or create a long term commitment. Clients may take their
time and preserve their budgets while still learning the characteristics
of the marketplace, the competitors, and the cost of entry. The offices of
the Nordic American Group can be made available, and members of our team
will provide business services and limited market support to our clients
in one of three styles of your choosing – administrative services,
reactive services, or proactive market development.
