With their move to The Netherlands just a
few months away Unique Client Solutions share their tips on preparing for an
international move. We love our home towns of Nottingham and Sheffield but we're excited for our first city abroad!
1. Choose your country wisely.
At Unique Client Solutions we though long
and hard about which country would be the best business move for us. Important
questions to ask are:
Where is there a gap in the market for our
product or service?
What kind of individual are we looking to
add to our team? Are we going to be able to find them?
Is the time difference going to be a
problem when communicating between teams in two countries?
2. Learn from experience.
Look carefully at companies that have had
international success. Study where they have gone, are there any patterns? Do
they bring a team from their home country with them or do they find great
people once they arrive? Do they offer exactly the same service in each
country?
3. Prepare well.
At Unique Client Solutions we have been
travelling back and forwards to The Netherlands for some months now to prepare
ourselves well for the expansion. We’ve studied Amsterdam and found an area
where we would like to be based. We’ve spent plenty of time with new and old
clients based there to learn exactly what they want for their direct sales
campaigns. We believe that this dedication and preparation will allow us to be
on our game from day one.
4. Expect the unexpected
Every day in the business world you have to
prepare for the unexpected. Flexibility and adaptability are key skills of
great leaders. This skill is going to be put to the test when you start doing
business in a new country. No matter how prepared we are at Unique Client
Solutions we know that we’re going to come across things that we wouldn’t in
the UK. Being mentally prepared for challenges will help you to work with them and
around them.
5. Have fun
One of the best things about the modern
business world is that international travel and expansion is so much easier. At
Unique Client Solutions we believe that it is an incredible opportunity to be able
to experience new cities and countries. We approach every day in our industry
of customer acquisitions with a positive attitude and try to be great students.
We get the best results for our clients but we like to have fun along the way.
With this winning mentality we love what we do and are excited for the future
of our company!
