How to export: market, procedures and logistics

Many articles and guidelines dealing with export and “how to export” speak of this as complex, bureaucratic and only for a few companies. They talk about many needs, planning, market research, product suitability, packaging, certifications and other needs.

All these requirements are normal in the market and therefore are not unique to companies that want to export.

We summarize the export issues in three:

  1. Market: Entrepreneurs need to analyze the market they want to reach, city, country or region, tailor their products to market needs, calculate and compare prices, and ultimately identify potential customers.
  2. Procedures: The entrepreneur needs to know the export routines and procedures, such as documents, pricing, payment methods, buying and selling (INCOTERMSS) and the export step by step.
  3. Logistics: The entrepreneur needs to find the right partners for their exportation to be successful, quality and safe, and this includes foreign exchange services, international transport, international insurance, customs brokers, consultants and other specific and necessary services.

Knowing these three problems the business owner will be able to better communicate with his customers, contractors and employees. What once seemed difficult becomes clearer.

And why are the three knowledge (market, procedures and logistics) complementary?

Because it is not enough just to know the market, if we do not know the procedures and logistics.

Nor is it enough to know the procedures only if we do not know the market and logistics.

And it is not enough just to know the logistics if you do not know the procedures and know the market.

Several systems in the world try to solve these three problems separately. Intradebook has developed a solution that combines market, procedures and logistics in one place, in an orderly and interactive way.

    • Dear Makhal,

      First, you can use our INBUSINESS module to search potential customers in each country.
      Second, you must use our INTRADE module to calculate prices and do the whole export step by step.

      Best regards,
