And it couldn't be more timely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the old days, creating an international business was left to relatively few--those with the wherewithal to move boatloads of goods into foreign countries. But now, thanks to the Internet, businesses of all sizes have a huge new opportunity to sell both goods and services globally. Yet only 1% of all U.S. businesses export. Why?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTypically, exporting begins with unsolicited inquiries from foreign customers on the web via email, website, blog, or posting on a Facebook page. People outside your country want your product, and they want it now. The problem is that most small business owners do not know how to service these inquiries. What's the best way to ship goods? Do I need a license? Should I sell through wholesalers in specific countries or directly to consumers? How will I get paid?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHelp is here—\u003cem\u003eExporting Essentials\u003c\/em\u003e, an abridged version of the author's \u003cem\u003eExporting: The Definitive Guide to Selling Abroad Profitably\u003c\/em\u003e, equips you with the knowledge you need to sell and fulfill orders internationally.
