I have selected 10 SMEs in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State I will be providing free business development and mentoring support for the next 30 days starting from January 8, 2024. I will be taking the selected SMEs on a journey of 'doing business with an advantage'. I will work with them to create advantages that will help them stand out in their respective marketplaces. From business planning, branding, modelling, and structuring to product and service development, sales and marketing strategies, and effective customer service. These businesses will be taught and set on a path to improving their customer reach, market penetration, and improved revenue. They will learn how to operate an accountable business capable of scaling. As we progress, they will share their experiences, scorecards, and improvements. See you on the other side of 30 days 👌 #Porbenihere #your_strslategist

How I successfully expanded Oak and Taek beyond the shores of Nigeria Building a thriving business that transcends borders requires a strategic approach and a deep understanding of market dynamics. ⚫One crucial strategy I implored is conducting comprehensive market research to identify opportunities and tailor offerings to meet specific customer needs. ⚫Establishing a strong digital presence is very important in today's digital age. A robust online presence through social media and website has helped us significantly at Oak and Teak Interiors to expand our reach, demonstrate what we can do, and attract new customers. Your business needs to get online and leverage digital tools to reach new markets. It doesn't matter what part of the world you are in, you may have clients thousands of miles away who can access your products and services through technology ⚫Customer focus is also very critical. It's one thing to have a good product/service but if you are not prioritizing customer satisfaction, you may be losing access to repeat and new customers. ⚫For me, building long-term relationships that drive repeat business and generate positive referrals is critical. You need to also form strategic partnerships that can also accelerate growth. Collaborating with complementary businesses or entering into strategic alliances can unlock new opportunities and expand market reach. ⚫ Lastly, you need to invest in your branding, marketing, technology, and workforce. A skilled and motivated workforce can drive innovation, ensure the flexibility of your business to adapt quickly and propel your business to the next stage REPOST so others can learn from this.

Strategies for keeping foreign buyers These tips will help your company maintain good relationships: Once you’ve found an overseas customer, representative or distributor buyer, do your best to keep the relationship strong. Here are tips on how to build and maintain your international sales contacts. It’s important to keep promises, communicate, and be flexible during all situations. 1- Treat all buyers as if they mean the world to you. Picture the best customer service experience you ever had and deliver something similar—or better. 2- Maintain relationships for the long term. 3- Keep your promises. First few orders are particularly important because it shapes the customer’s image of a company as a dependable or an undependable supplier.  4- Be mindful of exchange rate fluctuates. Regardless of changes in currency, it probably costs you about the same amount to sell a unit of your product. Show your international buyers you value them as customers—maybe you can trim from your margin or offer longer payment terms so they can afford your product. Or maybe you can pass on savings from imported components or decreased shipping costs that result from a stronger Rupee. In return, they’ll reward your flexibility with their loyalty. 5- Be Friendly and Polite, and consider cultural differences in communication. It is important to avoid undue familiarity or slang, which may be misinterpreted. Your product may be the best and the cheapest—but if international customers don’t like talking to you, you’ll lose business. 6- Send letters that are personally signed. 7- Maintain communication. If your company cannot afford frequent travel, consider using e-mail, videoconferencing, faxes, and phone calls to keep the working relationship active and up to date. 8- Keep your foreign contacts updated on changes to your business. Let them know about changes in price, personnel, address, and phone numbers. #business #success #opportunity #sales #opportunities #finance #research #help #strategy #planning #procurement #export #markets #shipping #commerce #marketresearch #businesstravel #citigroup #canada #Canadaexport #paapam #edb #GoTeamCanadaTrade #ExportDevelopmentCanada #TradeCommissionerService #BDC
