The Approach
Assuming your business is export ready and deemed appropriate for partnering with BDG, the
following four moves then outline the established route to a successful export business from the
UK to the USA.
1st MOVE
2nd MOVE
A Market Feasibility Evaluation Study
Implementation of the US Plan
Conduct pre-market entry research, business searches and viability studies
resulting in a Market Viability and Strategic Market Entry Plan (SMEP).
This costs anything from just £3,000 to £15,000 depending on the complexity.
This is priced just to cover labour costs for BDG. The study will include premarket entry research, market potential, profitability, competition,
product certification, logistics, legislation specific additional costs and more.
Work with the SME, establish a US business,
develop an initial market presence, acquire product
certifications, source US agencies, set up
distribution systems and arrange market visit
and partnership meetings.
A field market visit is arranged and hosted by BDG.
This visit will ensure you get to see and understand
all the opportunities and issues relating to your
specific needs. You will meet other similar businesses and talking to exporting business owners
similar to your own. These will most likely be, but not
limited to, existing clients of BDG. Where eligible,
BDG can help you secure UK government funding
for this visit, which could be up to £40,000.
3rd MOVE
Management of US Market Development
BDG will oversee partnerships, initiate US business systems,
review marketing, manage sales territories and provide
continuous monitoring.
BDG will become your partner in success.
More wide reaching than a traditional country based agent,
BDG adds value from end-to-end of the supply chain,
including that end consumer 3,000 miles away. The
commercial model BDG offers is proven and ensures the
team is constantly motivated and focused on bringing export
success to you.
4th MOVE
Evolve Full US Market Integration
Source premises, recruit staff, find production facilities,
and continually provide the enterprise concerned with the
necessary in market support help and guidance.
BDG covers wider geography than UK-US, with a network spanning most parts of Europe
and the Middle East. Call 4bc for a complimentary Export Potential Review on 0845 122 2442
