Bruce A. Wilson
Hi, I am Bruce Wilson of Wilson International Trade Consultants and I have been helping companies sell their products and or services worldwide for over 40 years. I have the experience and knowledge on how to assist companies and individuals overcome the fear of foreign trade, dealing with other cultures and identifying markets in this rapidly changing world. My expertise in these areas can be invaluable, so we decided to share our expertise with anyone who wants to learn how to do business in the international market. My goal is to help more people to export their products and/or services and become successful on an international level.
I have personally been a successful international trade consultant for clients in over 100 countries around the world.
I am well known to, and highly respected by, senior trade officials at the provincial and federal levels of government in Canada and other countries.
The types of programs we can offer and information on topics that may be invaluable to you or your company are as follows:
Programs:
Seminars - Overview of the various topics involving International Trade: i.e.: Do's and Don'ts, How-To's, cultures, financing, sources of business opportunities, agents, associates and government cooperation. Each topic will be formatted to fit the attendees.
Workshops - Designed for small to medium size groups of individuals sitting at tables. They are given handouts on the subjects that we will be instructing and coaching. The distinctive handout material can be taken for follow-up purposes and further discussion. Typically, workshops are a full day, and cover virtually all aspects of international trade. (Politics and religion excluded).
One on Ones - Will be customized to provide information for the particular needs of your business. Each company has their own requirements depending upon their product or service.
Conferences - A presentation of information that can pertain to any international subject or topic that can be related to what the conference organizers want covered. (Politics and religion excluded).
Training - A session of predetermined length on a particular subject or subjects.
Lunch and Learns - A "lunch meeting" that focuses on a particular topic that meets the needs of the client.
In House Talks - An on-site session for specific employees of the client to provide information that they deem pertinent.
Topics:
International Marketing
Integrated global marketing plan development and strategy. The identification of target markets to detailed (realistic) budgets and timelines. The distribution of your marketing material, to all relevant governments in the country and offshore government agencies, and to key potential buyers in identified target markets.
International Financing
International financing procedures and project bidding guidelines. There are more than 35 international financial institutions, commonly referred to as IFIs (ie. World Bank, Asia Development Bank, African Development fund, Caribbean fund and EBRD), that finance thousands of projects worldwide. There are projects that your company may well be qualified to work on, however, you must be registered before you can bid. Registration information for these organizations will be provided as well as assistance on accessing many sources of government grants and financing. The working of other financial details such as bid bonds, bank guarantees, and fund transfers will also be detailed.
Logistical Support
Information regarding the ins and outs of short and long-term accommodation, temporary and longer-term work visas, as well as the location of office space, office provisions and office support services and logistical services.
Shipping Assistance
Instruction concerning proper documentation, insurance, contacting freight forwarding companies and obtaining customs clearance including using customs brokers.
Negotiations
Directing negotiations on contracts, joint ventures and/or licensing agreements. Negotiating styles and strategies, as they vary incredibly from country to country. Providing you with the knowledge and experience to "do the deal" virtually anywhere in the world.
Government liaison
Contacting and working either with or without the key local and foreign government departments and provincial government departments, and making sure the principal people in government stay in touch with you.
Country Cultures
Important and critical information on the "do's and don'ts" and the "how-to's" when dealing with a foreign country. Protocols and respect of their culture and customs is imperative.
