We aim to serve as your reliable point of contact for all business related issues you want us to handle in Western, Eastern and Central Europe, monitor and manage your interests with suppliers of services, and provide independent, objective analysis and advice. Specific business support includes marketing services, problem solving and web research.

 

Web research

Clients often know what they need to find out from the Polish Internet, and if they spoke foreign languages they would not need us. But they don't. We know the Internet languages backwards and forwards. Thanks to access to native speakers of East European languages we can search and collate results in all desirable Western, Eastern and central European languages.

Setting up an office / facility

Depending on our client's strategy, we can assist in setting up an office in any country in Western, Eastern Central Europe. This service usually consists of selecting the most, appropriate location, finding premises, and taking care of all the accompanying legal requirements, such as registering a subsidiary. For some businesses, the right way to approach the market may be to put their website into the local language or to create a call centre. We can take care of outsourcing local support services.

Help with negotiations

Negotiations are a complex aspect of conducting business on an international scale and many foreign business professionals coming to Central Europe find it challenging to communicate with local partners. Successful communication calls for an understanding of the intricacy of cultural differences. We are familiar with the way of doing business in each of the Western, Eastern and central European countries and will help support meetings and negotiations.

Managing a distributor or agent

Are you dissatisfied with your partner on any of the Western, Eastern and central European markets? Do you wonder why sales have been below potential and are still dropping? We can offer the service of managing your distributor or agent. As we are close to the market it will be easier for us to find out what's going on. We will monitor and assess your partner's efforts and potential, and evaluate the reasons for business being below expectations and make recommendations for further action.

Marketing services

Sometimes the most appropriate approach for a foreign company to undertake in a target Western, Eastern and central European country is direct marketing, PR, a telephone survey or other approach. Depending on the scale we can manage the process of making sure that an agreed message is taken to either potential channel partners or end users in the local language

Subsidy projects

Internationalization can often go together and can be co-financed via possible subsidy projects. This opportunity is often overlooked. Yet, it may the keyfactor to succeed with your international growth or at least contribute a subtantial amount to cover your costs.

We may be able to support with:

  • Pointing out the possible subsidies relating to your project,
  • Identifying the most suitable subsidy, appropriate and feasible for your project,
  • Supporting you with the subsidy application.
