4. Search of Partners
•The first step is to agree on a detailed profile of the
figure you require.
•Using this profile, we make a systematic search in
the market for potential candidates and contact
them on your behalf.
•These contacts, are used to filter out companies
that do not match the profile. Those that do are
then contacted with a view to obtaining further
information on their activities, finances, references,
etc.
•The final stage is to pinpoint those companies that,
not only fit the profile, but that have also expressed
a specific interest in both your products and the
company itself. Thus your bespoke short-list only
contains highly qualified candidates.
•As required, we can also provide you with or
review distributor/agent agreements.
•We can also provide support and advice during the
whole negotiation process, including, if you so wish,
a ITC consultant present at meetings and
negotiations.
