Today's FedEx top tip: Succeed overseas

Exporting can help raise your business’ profile and credibility, while the rewards are often lucrative.

In fact, the FedEx Great British Export Report 2015 revealed almost three-quarters of SMEs who currently export believe their international revenues will increase in five years.2

While exporting can offer fruitful prospects, preparation is a vital ingredient in the recipe of success.

Firstly, research legislations and duties as these vary from country-to-country and may also differ regionally, for example Russia.3 Take the time to learn the cultural differences and basic language skills, as the smallest gesture can make all the difference, plus develop strong relationships with distributors, as they should know the best means to bring your product or service to market.

Overall, with the right advice, support and preparation going global can be a lot easier than first imagined.
