By selling your product or service in another country, you can introduce your company to huge markets, increase your sales and profits, gain brand recognition, reduce the risk of only operating in one market (eg, due to economic or seasonal downturns) and extend your product’s life cycle. When you have narrowed down your list, consider international business laws in each country. You may need to consult locals to research regional laws and customs to ensure that you are able to take your product or service into that country. You will also need to undertake the usual market research, to ensure that people in your target market will definitely want to buy your product or service. Exporting is the direct sale of goods and / or services in another country. It is possibly the best-known method of entering a foreign market, as well as the lowest risk. It may also be cost- effective as you will not need to invest in production facilities in your chosen country – all goods are still produced in your home country then sent to foreign countries for sale. However, rising transportation costs are likely to increase the cost of exporting in the near future. The majority of costs involved with exporting come from marketing expenses. Usually, you will need the involvement of four parties: your business, an importer, a transport provider and the government of the country of which you wish to export to Licensing, Franchising, Joint venture, Foreign direct investment, Wholly owned subsidiary, Piggybacking.

Exporting is the direct sale of goods and / or services in another country, Licensing allows another company in your target country to use your property, Franchising, Joint venture, Foreign direct investment, Wholly owned subsidiary, Piggybacking. The obvious issue here is cost. Entering a market on a large scale will require significant resources. Although this is more likely to make an impression on a new market as it will attract the attention of customers and local businesses alike, it may be risky financially if your company does not take off. Entering on a smaller scale can offer business owners the chance to learn about the new market and limit risks – however, you are much less likely to gain significant amounts of attention.

Let’s take a closer look at the profile of a modern B2B buyer. From increased demand for self-service options and online interactions with sellers, to lowering response to traditional marketing tactics and heightened concern about data privacy and security - the needs of the modern buyer have changed. Modern B2B buyers are younger and tech-savvy.

Research shows that 60% of all B2B tech buyers are millennial (age 25 – 39), followed by 32% that belong to Gen X group (42-57).

These younger professionals are prone to using digital technologies and online reviews in the buying process, in turn revolutionizing how they purchase products or services. For one, they prefer to conduct research themselves, and use the wealth of content available to help them on their journey. When making purchasing decisions, the new B2B buyers mostly rely on these five resources:

Product demos

Vendor/product website

User reviews

Vendor reps

Free trial

As the name suggests, business-to-business marketing refers to the marketing of products or services to other businesses and organizations. It holds several key distinctions from B2C marketing, which is oriented toward consumers. In a broad sense, B2B marketing content tends to be more informational and straightforward than B2C. This is because business purchase decisions, in comparison to those of consumers, are based more on bottom-line revenue impact. Return on investment (ROI) is rarely a 5

consideration for the everyday person—at least in a monetary sense—but it’s a primary focus for corporate decision makers. In the modern environment, B2B marketers often sell to buying committees with various key stakeholders. This makes for a complex and sometimes challenging landscape, but as data sources become more robust and accurate, B2B marketers’ ability to map out committees and reach buyers with relevant, personalized information has greatly improved. Any company that sells to other companies. B2B can take many forms: software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscriptions, security solutions, tools, accessories, office supplies, you name it. Many organizations fall under both the B2B and B2C umbrellas.

B2B marketing campaigns are aimed at any individual(s) with control or influence on purchasing decisions. This can encompass a wide variety of titles and functions, from entry-level end-users all the way up to the C-suite.

Competition for customers, and their attention, is high. Building out a B2B strategy that delivers results requires thoughtful planning, execution, and management. Here’s a high-level look at the process B2B companies use to stand out in a crowded marketplace:

Develop an Overarching Vision

Define Your Market and Buyer Persona

Identify B2B Marketing Tactics and Channels

Create Assets and Run Campaigns

Measure and Improve

you to get the list of ideal customers from one source in India. You may have to use different sources. You can start with Google. Associations of the particular target group can be a good source. There are certain websites that provide details of various companies like Just Dial, India Mart, in.kpmass.com. They could be a good source for developing the database of the companies. One ideal way of finding out more details about potential customers is talk to two or three mid management employees of the companies that your are targeting.

B2B sales, also known as business to business sales, refer to companies who primarily sell products and services to businesses, rather than direct to 7

consumers (B2C). B2B sales typically have higher order values, longer sales cycles and are often more complex than B2C sales.

B2B sales have changed dramatically in recent years and the B2B sales strategies that used to work are no longer effective. But, why? How has B2B sales changed? If a person needed a product or solution, they’d reach out to a potential vendor and deal with a sales person, who’d pitch them with the best option to choose. And if they were happy with what they heard, they would make a purchase. Simple right? It was a relatively straight forward process, in which marketing was responsible for filling up the sales funnel with leads, and then for sales teams, they were responsible for getting those leads into a sales pipeline and moving them down the funnel and into a sale. It was predictable. Now, compare that with the buying process B2B buyers go through today:

A person identifies a problem,

They research it online, then,

They also conduct further research to discover all potential solutions,

They reach out to friends for recommendations, and check what others say about a particular solution on social media, forums, and other online sources,

They Google this particular solution and read online reviews,

During the sales process, they might also click an ad offering a solution, finally,

Based on all information make a buying decision, and only then

They might reach out to the company to complete the sale. Senior Product Manager

Hobbies:-

Music, Gardening, Shopping

Music:-

Making music is far more than just a pleasant pastime. Simply listening to music can be soothing for the soul, mind and body – an all-round mood booster – so imagine what creating music can do to a person. Anyone who plays music goes on a fulfilling journey of emotion, sound, focus, persistence and learning.

Listening to music is a hobby because it can be very relaxing and enjoyable. According to Scientific American, listening to music helps reduce stress and anxiety, improves mental functions like memory and reasoning, promotes cardiovascular health, increases pain tolerance, reduces depression which improves mood. Music is capable of raising states of consciousness, changing your mood, developing the brain, lowering stress levels and accessing different states of the mind. Gardening:-

Gardening is an activity that's good for both the mind and body, and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Plus, you get to eat the delicious fruits, vegetables and herbs that you grow. So, grab your tools and get in the dirt! ...Gardening is a very pleasant and rewarding a hobby. Some nature lovers have a hobby of gardening because they love nature's scenic beauty. In gardening, people grow different types of plants, shrubs, bushes where flowers blossom. Plants and trees are an essential component of our life. My favorite hobby is planting. I love to plant both flowers and green trees. My little garden is in Front ont of my little house, at the terrace, in my bedroom and in my bathroom.. I very much love fragrant white flowers planting in my garden such as Jasmine, White Champaka, and Wild Water Plum.

Shopping:-

13

Shopping as a hobby can be fun, but it brings all sort of problems, not only to the planet but to our personal lives. Money: this is probably the most obvious to most people, shopping on regular basis for things we don't need, hurts our ability to save or invest in things that can be more beneficial long term. Yours sincerely,

(GANESAN SUBRAMANIAN)
