What's the best way to land (US,UK,CA )offline clients -- if you are from another country?

8 replies
Hey guys,

I just have a quick question and I would appreciate if you can recommend products or techniques to help me target offline businesses when I am from the Philippines, maybe the easiest way for me is to do a Joint Venture (which is obvious) but i'm researching how to do it on my own especially since I have a call center and staff to do all the work needed.

If there is/are good products you can recommend kindly let me know, or techniques are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    keep in mind a lot of these businesses youll be calling probably get the same monthly cold call that you're going to proceed with if you stick to a product or technique. be original, be different.

    I'm already working on a J/V with a Partner in India who has very unique products that are quite possibly going to be very lucrative.

    I'm getting distributors/vendors in the USA to sell the goods after they order the products by the crate at wholesale prices (Which are EXTREMELY cheap due to the currency exchange between here (USA) and India).

    My J/V Partner can ship to International Ports where the vendors/wholesalers/retail stores can either pick them up, or have them delivered from there.

    Would you be doing any type of Import/Export like this? If so, I'm already working on it with a Partner from India so I could most likely help you a great deal as well. Even if you won't be Importing/Exporting Physical Goods, I can still help you "Get in the door" at some Major companies as I have some connections and plenty of experience doing business to business deals/sales.

    PM me if you're interested in discussing this further. I'm always looking for an opportunity to make some extra cash and help others at the same time.

    Best Regards,

    James

      great advice. now this is stuff that we will look for. Alternatively I thought of flying to the states for 3-4 months just for this and get some stuff running and go home then do it again. or stay 2 months there. 1 month ph and 2 months US. just to get started.
