Sales and Marketing
Acquisition of new customers in new markets will provide your company with the impetus to improve its bottom line and improve its position with investors. Asia has the fastest growing economies in the world and many companies are yet to establish a base – knowledge and resources are a limiting factor.
AsiaFootPrint will provide you with the focus to grow your top-line, to make more sales, to bring in more gross revenue in a difficult and far away region by establishing your footprint in Asia.
AsiaFootPrint helps our clients achieve a dramatic increase in gross revenues by:
- Revealing new sales opportunities
- Discovering untapped markets
- Engaging a focused seasoned sales team
- Enabling solid channel partners
- Diversifying your client base
- Increasing the overall value of your business
AsiaFootPrint provides an experienced array of resources designed to assist with the growth of your business and dramatically improve your overall revenues. Our disciplined approach encompasses a complementary set of services including dedicated, expertly managed sales resources to work exclusively on behalf of your company at our premises across Asia. Known as Agency Reps, we professionally represent your company and drive growth for your business.
The activities of such resources can cover Business Planning, Sales Management, Business Development, Account Management, International Channel Management, Strategic Solution Selling, Telesales activities, Direct Marketing, Public Relations, Product Management, Technical Support and deployment, training and education programs, creating localised collateral and building brand awareness programs.
Your ability to compete in today’s global marketplace is as much a matter of market awareness as it is one of individuality, quality, or price. Those who can benefit from your product or service need to be aware of what you have to offer and that you are present in their market. Potential customers must be taken through the stages of awareness, intent to purchase, and product trial. The professionals of AsiaFootPrint are ready to aid your company in every step along the way, from creating greater understanding of your products and services to closing sales with those critical new clients. All this adds to the growth of your business.
Channel Establishment
Developing and implementing a channel engagement program will enable entry into new markets quickly and effectively and open-up new clients otherwise difficult to secure. The three step program of identify, engage and enable will ensure we recruit good quality partners that will provide mindshare for your products and services in their respective markets.
“Fundamental to success is an understanding of the market potential, its size, prioritizing those markets that suit your product and service offering and identifying the opportunities and potential threats to overcome.”
Specific cultural characteristics are important to understand along with legal, competitive and infrastructure issues. As always a Market Entry Plan should depict the best route of entry along with costs, expected revenue, target channel partners, risks and marketing support programs to build brand awareness.
Risk Mitigation
In the eyes of investors, creating better return on net assets is a measure of the success in building greater shareholder value. Doing this in the context of mitigated risk and controlled costs certainly provides boardrooms with a degree of comfort and confidence.
AsiaFootPrint has a solid reputation with both public and private companies looking to establish a base in Asia and will provide solid management expertise to oversee this entry. No more false starts and bad impressions for you or your customers or worries regarding blowouts in costs.
Compliance
AsiaFootPrint provide a comprehensive suite of compliance services tailored specifically for technology companies looking to establish a presence in the Asia Pacific Region.
Our services range from preparing applications for export development grants, withholding tax clearances and preparing and lodging GST returns, to preparing and analysing budgets, extensive auditing and advising on the most appropriate business structures for both local and overseas entities.
Clients benefit from the significant experience gained by Serge Bolzonello during many years of providing advice to international technology companies.
Technical Support & Consulting Services
To deliver the business benefits articulated in the products and services we represent, it requires more than just a demo, proof of concept or a neat architecture. It requires the skill and expertise of intelligent people who have experienced deployment skills, seen it and actually done it – on more than one occasion.
Whether supporting direct implementations, managing in-house deployment teams or working in conjunction with systems integration partners, AsiaFootPrint offers the full range of skills and technical support needed to ensure rapid progress and a successful outcome to customer projects.
And once a solution is operational, AsiaFootPrint continues to provide a range of training, support, and follow-up consulting services, aimed at ensuring that the customer derives the maximum benefit possible from our implementation.
