Export Communications Review
  *
*

International products and services evaluation programme for exporters


A subsidised Export Communications Review can help you to evaluate the way you are presenting your business and  products or services to overseas customers. The review will provides you with impartial and objective advice about addressing language and cultural barriers when trading with overseas markets, helping increase competitiveness and marketability overseas by recommending practical and achievable improvements.

A British Chambers of Commerce-accredited Export Communications Consultant will analyse your business' current situation and prepare a report highlighting strengths and weaknesses, while making practical recommendations to help you achieve goals. You will also be given suggestions regarding other organisations or companies that could help you.
 
The aim of the Export Communications Review is to give you the confidence to deal with overseas customers both now and in the future. That's why, as well as offering solutions to immediate problems, the review makes long-term recommendations which can be used as the basis for developing an export communications strategy.
Depending on the size of company and the extent of its product range and export activity, a review may involve up to three visits by the consultant.

Benefits

An Export Communications Review could help you:
  • Develop your export business in a proactive manner

  • Handle an increased number of enquiries from target markets competently, efficiently and professionally

  • Consider countries your previously thought too difficult

  • Identify where language and cultural barriers are causing you to lose business

  • Trade successfully with foreign markets without necessarily learning the language

  • Increase your export business

  • Improve relationships with your overseas customers and distributors

  • Confidently approach the language industry for help, giving knowledge of the process, procedures and suppliers

  • See your company from an outsider's point of view, at what you already do well and identify areas to improve further

Export Communications Reviews really work!

Hundreds of businesses have already benefited using UK Trade & Investment support. While the review is designed to overcome language and cultural barriers between British exporters and overseas business, research of companies who have been reviewed show that a third have actually gained business and increased their export turnover as a result.
