Getting started in exporting: What do I have to do?

Welcome to Export Success, a weekly 30 minute online radio blog with one goal:  To help you grow your business by succeeding in the global marketplace.  I’m your host, Dr. Robert Letovsky, and I’ve had almost 30 years of experience in international business.  Each week, I’ll be speaking to exporters, logistics managers, financial experts and government agency representatives to give you the kind of practical, how-to information you need to grow your business internationally! 

This week, my guest will be Brent Raymond, Director of International Trade & Foreign Investment for the Vermont State Agency of Commerce & Community Development. Brent has helped dozens of small and mid-sized firms to market their products abroad.  He’ll be talking to us about the first steps a small business should take if it wants to start exporting, what resources are out there to help them and what pitfalls should you as a first time or inexperienced exporter have to watch out for.

I hope you’ll join me for this week’s broadcast of Export Success on Blogtalkradio so that your business can start reaching out to new customers around the world!
