Brief Notes on International Trade Management - international trade policy
Dr. S. Koner,
MBA Professor
California has overseas trade officës in five countries and its State Department of Food and Agriculture and California Energy Commission [to name just two agencies] sponsor trade shows and offer financial assistance to prospective exporters.
The letter of credit is issued, sent to the advising bank who in turn advises it to the beneficiary, also known as the broker or middle man.
Trademark protection and patent law comprise another critical area that requires your attention. A vexing problem for many U.S. enterprises doing business abroad, especially in developing countries, has been the pirating of intellectual property. The Western idea of owning an idea is as foreign to many cultures as the idea of private property.
Industry trade associations are also useful, as are private consulting firms [such as Terence Barber's BHP Associates] and the business departments located within major universities.
The way you market your product in the United States can provide helpful clues for developing methods of selling it internationally.
Sell the standard products you make for your country market in as many foreign markets as will accept them. Adapt your standard products to meet foreign market needs more closely. Adapt your products to meet both foreign and domestic market criteria at the same time, i.e. create a universal [global] product.
The great complaint of most exporters is distributors who are poised to hop aboard the fastest train and move whatever product is currently hot
However, the savviest exporters manage to make the relationship work.
On ramp-to-ramp rail traffic, delivery by the railroad is completed when the railroad delivers the car to the destination ramp and notifies the consignee that the shipment is available for pick up.
As tariff barriers [tariffs, duties and quotas] are eliminated around the world in accordance with the requirements of participation in the World Trade Organization [WTO], other non-tariff barriers, such as product standards, are proliferating.
We have the supplier sitting back patiently waiting for payment. After two or three weeks, they may contact the bank asking about the status of payment against the assignment only to hear that documents have yet to be presented against the letter of credit. The supplier will be referred to the line in the assignment of proceeds that payment will be made to them if and when payment under the letter of credit is made.
Establishing local Customer preferences and evaluating competitive products and enterprises in the target market is elemental.
Your bank can also be an excellent resource if you choose one that has an international department and is committed to serving small business. Such an institution can help you with all aspects of an export transaction and introduce you to the federal and state Government export financing programs that actively support small firms. State governments are another prime source of assistance.
A thorough corporate self analysis or self audit is needed to understand to what extent the exporter is willing to gather information and invest in adaptation of the product for customers in a specific country market or region of the world.
Simply stated exporting refers to the marketing of goods produced in one country into another.
If you have found that direct mail has paid off for you at home, chances are good that it will also help you reach buyers in foreign markets.
