U.S. goods and services are in demand across the globe. But to be successful, it’s essential for a business to understand the many aspects of international sales. The devil is in the details but that’s where the profits are too. This workshop will take you under the hood of export practice to uncover details you’d rather know beforehand than discover in mid-export sale. The free 2-hour program will provide an overview of key considerations exporters needs to understand. Topics will include:

• Properly classifying and reporting your export
• Complying with US (and foreign) laws controlling exports/imports
• Developing a logistical plan
• Export documentation
• Typical export terms of sale
• Getting paid and risk mitigation strategies
• Export financing sources

The program will conclude with an overview of additional resources and services available for growing your export business.
