The USA represents a huge market that is very receptive to Canadian ideas and products, whether manufactured in Canada or imported into the USA from lower-cost international countries. Unless your company has a One million budget, you will need to learn and employ practical, cost-effective methods and strategies. This introductory seminar will help you define your USA market, and introduce you to the basic essentials of marketing and logistics (packaging, shipping, warehousing and US Customs compliance). You need to know these basics before you commit to the design, manufacture or purchase of your product or service. Brought to you by Jim Pettinger of International Market Access and April Collier of Pacific Custom Brokers. This seminar allows time for the speakers to answer specific questions about your business ideas. This seminar is hosted at Small Business BC in Vancouver and delivered to other locations via live video conference.
