Selling services overseas

A brochure providing a basic introduction to selling services overseas has been published by UK Trade & Investment (UKTI).

The brochure provides a structure for looking at securing and developing business overseas and acts as an aide memoir for those already involved to some extent in work overseas.

The brochure contains eight chapters:

• Is this a priority for my business?
• What opportunities are there for my business overseas and in which countries?
• How do I deliver my business overseas?
• How do I sell and raise the profile of my services overseas?
• Can I ensure that I get paid?
• How do I handle the different language and culture of people overseas?
• How can I protect my intellectual property overseas?
• What support and information is available to help me from the Government and other support services?

Case studies are also included in the brochure, as well as a list of useful organisations and websites.
