Resources On Get International Clients
There are also many readers who want to know more about my process to get international sales. And this is what I write about on my other website: Get International Clients.
My process to get international sales is called the International Sales Road Map… you can find it on the Get International Clients website.
I created this International Sales Road Map based on my 25 years field experience in international sales and marketing. I know it works. It is what I learned for trial and error living and working outside of my original cultural environment.
What exactly is the International Sales Road Map?
Well, it is an easy to follow process based on a cycle of 8 steps to develop your international business and get international clients.
It is a cycle to go through, improve and repeat…again and again. This process helps you to:
- Acquire an international mind-set
- Find effective cross-cultural sales strategies for your business
- Develop the right international business for you
- Connect with your foreign prospects and clients
The 8 steps on the International Sales Road Map are color coded, so the articles are easy to recognize.

My Policy On Comments
Just a word about your comments.
I really do appreciate them!
But the topic of “culture” can stimulate strong emotions in some people.
And to such an extent that they do not seem to recognize that I am totally business focused.
As this is my personal blog, it is also my decision about what goes on here.
This blog is about all things cross-cultural for international business development.
And yes, I will delete anything I deem in any way inappropriate.
Fortunately this has not happened often.
But there is one particular kind of comment that I will delete systematically:
- Racial venting
If you feel compelled to spew hatred, prejudice or your own weird personal hangups, I invite you to do so in a more appropriate place.
Readers here are people interested in international business development.
