S A N O

Meeting December 22nd, 2009

Happy to know that S. has established sales in Eastern Europe mainly.
The way to market and sell in those countries is rather different from the western sophisticated sales network (USA, W. Europe, and Asia). Another case: Latin America.
Objective: reduce risks in company development.

I believe in: • Home work, strong preparation in information on: markets, distribution networks, competition analysis, profits, how, legislation, test cases. • Competitive advantage(s). • USP (Unique selling proposition): quality, EU standards, price, packaging, range, eco green, sales system, etc. • Agent (exclusive?), importer, own distribution company, wholesalers • Personal contacts, chemistry, trust, art of negotiation • Progressive penetration and objectives • Market tests • Market control • Product and business development (new areas, joint ventures)

METHOD – INTELLIGENCE - CHOICE OF MARKET TESTS – CHOICE OF DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS – AGREEMENTS BASED ON OBJECTIVES/INVESTMENTS – PERSONAL CHEMISTRY
