All too often, the enormous cost of extending and establishing international presence in just one foreign market frightens small and medium size manufacturing companies into staying local, not to mention the cost of doing that in two or more countries. But does that mean that there’s no way out of this crampy situation? Acumen International as an International Professional Employer Organization has designated a Global Employer of Record solution to help manufacturing companies of all sizes to easily move to as many countries as possible on a shoestring budget and profitably too. With our Global Employer of Record solution, the prohibitive costs of expanding globally which may range from the cost of familiarizing with the target market’s unique requirements to that of employing, engaging and retaining dedicated sales force, as well as terminating them when necessary will be eliminated. This solution saves you time and efforts that are mission critical to succeed in global expansion.

How quickly and successfully your product will move in any foreign market will highly depend on how you choose to sell them - either through foreign independent sales reps, foreign direct sales forces or a Global Employer of Record solution. After many years of experience with helping global companies have a distant outreach with minimal investment, Acumen International has discovered and consequently designated an innovative solution that can help manufacturing companies like yourself to get rid of the necessity to choose the least of the two evils - foreign independent sales reps or foreign direct sales forces. This solution - Global Employer of Record - incorporates the best features of the two traditional go-to-market modes, while at the same time offers a range of its own unique strengths. Through our Global Employer of Record solution, you will be able to engage employees who will be dedicated to selling your products, boosting your global sales and increasing revenue.

Our Global Employer of Record solution is designed to help manufacturing and trading companies to not only employ the right sales force who will effectively sell their products in a cutthroat competitive global market, but to make them devoted and loyal to them by offering the employment security and stability they need. This solution helps you to improve the emotional commitment of your foreign sales people who we employ on your behalf by engaging them the right way according to the labor law of the country, and paying them benefits the independent agent is not usually entitled to. Unlike independent sales reps who may not be fully engaged in selling your products due to their involvement on several products at the same time, your global employees hired via our solution will be focused on your company’s product(s) exclusively. Consequently, you will be able to organize product trainings and control the performance of your sales team thus achieving higher employee engagement.

In the new economy, companies that succeed are those that favor the agile, flexible and innovative ways of doing business. This is especially true about international business. Acumen International has designed an innovative mode of foreign market entry to help numerous manufacturing/ trading companies to extend their global presence without having to set up their own legal entities. Companies can now leverage the global infrastructure of an International Employer of Record in 150+ countries to easily establish an outpost in a foreign land without literally being there. With a Global Employer of Record hiring their sales people locally, handling all HR and payroll issues, and bearing all employment risks, businesses can enter or expand into various foreign markets fast while keeping the “light” footprint. It allows exporters to test out the markets without any direct commitment to the markets that are not key to them and can serve as an interim solution for all companies.

Again, it’s all about passion! You most certainly need to work with or through someone who has a strong passion for selling your products as you have, someone who does not only have great selling skills but great knowledge about your product. That is the kind of person you need to succeed in any competitive global market. With that in mind, Acumen International has invented a proven solution that helps small and medium size manufacturing companies to operate their businesses internationally without having to deal with the risks that go with selling through foreign independent sales agents or reps. This solution offers an absolutely risk-free entrance and establishment in any foreign market by enabling you to work through often difficult to get dedicated workforce who will be passionate about selling your products and who will work only on your product as if they were your in-house sales people hired in your home country.

When businesses decide to expand into foreign markets through hiring global salesforces who would represent their product abroad, one of the biggest challenges manufacturers face is calculating the cost of hiring a sales person in the country of their interest.
