Designed by the Department for International Trade’s (DIT) digital specialist, Charlie Ruigrok, this session will enable you to develop your digital skills, raise your global brand presence, and allow you to test new markets with minimal investment.

By attending, you will learn how to develop a strategy in the following areas:

• Online Routes to market
A strategic approach towards eMarketplaces means companies can position products in front of international consumers who are on sites where they are confident and from which they are already buying products.

• Identifying Multi-channel and B2B online opportunities 
There are a host of other online channels available that can help establish or grow presence in other markets. These include Flash and member sale sites or eMarketplace platforms set up for more traditional B2B and wholesale opportunities.

Charlie has a wealth of experience in his field, having previously worked with a range of private organisations on e-commerce and digital projects – leading on platform management, website building and optimisation for several international brands across Europe. He works with businesses of all shapes and sizes to break through traditional barriers to exporting overseas, using a plethora of exciting new digital channels.

Book today to discover the tools needed to make your products more visible online overseas.
