The strategy will clear your hurdles to cross and illuminate paths forward to sales
Expansion Plan to lay out the operational changes the company will have to make to successfully export products or services. This will include finance requirements and how to meet them (loans, angel/VC finance or crowd equity finance)

Investor or Client Presentation Our team (including research interns and investor pitch coach) will work with you to develop a DEMO Day presentation that will engage your audience and motivate them to close the deal.
