EXPORT PREPARATION GUIDE
Plan the first 90 days of export preparation
Sequence the work before investing in websites, packaging or outreach.
01
First: establish your baseline
Collect the current product documents, commercial inputs and factory constraints. Record the assumptions you still need to validate.
02
Next: close the critical gaps
Prioritize the issues that block a credible offer. Coordinate product presentation, documentation and quotation inputs with the person responsible for each decision.
03
Then: prepare suitable conversations
Develop a concise buyer profile and a consistent product presentation. Qualification and negotiation should be grounded in verified product capabilities.
04
Review before expanding
Review feedback, unresolved gaps and costs with your team. Agree any ongoing support separately rather than treating an initial assessment as a commitment to a long-term project.
