Buying or Selling Overseas It's complicated
We've got you covered, whether you work full time in international trade or you are just getting started. For beginners we have classes - the Import Series is online now. And for our experienced colleagues we launched a Podcast in October 2022! The Podcast is highly technical topics with experts in international trade.
While the podcast is highly technical for experienced professionals – the class is for everyone, you don’t need a degree in international business, we made learning easy.
Go to the Classes page to see what is available now. These classes are practical, hands-on, and in a how to format to help small businesses learn how to move goods across borders. Just what you need to know for your business – and no more.
International Trade Resources Podcast – available on the main menu tab above. You will see all the episodes and links to the major podcast hosting sites to listen. Our guests are experts in international trade with decades of experience. The topics are technical discussions, and we have some “wow” moments in the first few episodes as we dive in with our guests to uncover some industry behind-the-scenes information. Join us as we discuss how freight billing audits find over charges, the chances of getting products out of a UFLPA detention, and the pro’s and con’s of exclusivity with distributors. We will add new episodes at least twice a month. Check it out!
