Why Product Certification Is a Competitive Advantage
ERP selection depends on your scale. SOHO traders can use Excel and a free CRM. Small teams need lightweight trade-specific ERPs. Large companies need comprehensive systems. Don't over-invest early.
Customs data platforms show who imports your product, from where, at what volume, and frequency. This is precise sales intelligence. The only downside is a 1-3 month data lag.
LinkedIn Sales Navigator is worth the investment for B2B exporters. Precisely target by keyword, industry, position, and region. See who views your profile and get real-time account updates.
Google Maps is an overlooked prospecting method. Search industry keywords in target regions to find real trading companies. Street View shows their actual scale. Combine with Google search for powerful workflow.
