Give your services an international dimension

Is your service or product unique to your region or country, or do you think that it could also be an international success? Or would you like to join forces with other entrepreneurs to introduce an existing service or product to the Dutch market? Are you inspired by the possibilities, but put off by the difficulties of internationalisation?

The pace of successful business is constantly increasing, and is becoming more and more international. Especially in the field of services, you have to ask yourself whether they are unique to your area or country, or whether they could also be successful across borders. If the answer is yes, Budeco can help you to make your move into the international marketplace. Budeco helps foreign businesses to achieve success in the Dutch market, and we help Dutch businesses with their international expansion. You will be assisted by a rapidly growing network of Budeco offices in Scandinavia, the United Kingdom and Belgium. Specifically, Budeco can help you with:

• the practicalities: a local website, translation and localisation of your product or service and your marketing materials, setting up a postal address and telephone number, as well as a local point of contact;
• identifying possible local partners who can carry out your services, including arranging for contact introductions and setting up partnership agreements;
• identifying potential clients for your services; from initial contact up to and including the closing of the deal;
• establishing a local operation, up to and including the final establishment of an independent sales organisation.

A good example of what Budeco can do for you is the Swedish company Comaea AB, which offers an online system to companies of between 50 and around 1,000 employees to support their competence management. Budeco translated the system, prepared a marketing plan, a Dutch Comaea website, and Dutch language promotional materials tailored to the target group. Budeco launched Comaea in the Netherlands at Performa, the most important HR trade show of the Benelux. We organised seminars (“competence cafes”) in order to meet the target group, and ultimately achieved so many sales that Comaea and Budeco are now working on establishing an independent Dutch company, Comaea BV. The cherry on the cake!

Budeco is working hard to establish an international network of passionate business developers, so that we can help you achieve success in more and more countries in the years ahead. At present, we can offer our services in Belgium, the UK, Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
