There are three approaches: The first approach holds that prices should not be publicized, fearing that customers would be deterred by the prices even before they make contact with the company as well as in order to prevent exposure of this sensitive [...]

My B2B software solution is excellent – why is it so hard to sell it overseas?

A common phenomenon I encounter in my work meetings with B2B software companies and startups is the frustration of founders, CEOs and sales managers that although they have an excellent product it is very difficult to sell it overseas. The frustration from this situation is particularly big when it concerns a product that has succeeded in the local market in Israel, so there is no doubt about the usefulness of the solution, its rich functionality and the company's delivery capabilities. [...]

The main reasons startups fail

Geektime published a survey listing the main reasons startups fail. Quickly glancing at the survey shows that “bad marketing” is responsible for only 15% of cases, while looking at the other reasons in-depth (% of respondents who listed a specific reason) reveals a much more worrying picture: “We built a product and searched for a problem” (42%) – This is very common among Israeli startups, which have advanced technological skills but a lack of vision when it comes to identifying target [...]

Despite the broad professional consensus in favor of creating marketing plans, it’s quite surprising to see that there are still small and medium-sized enterprises that do not bother investing in making international marketing plans.

In which arena are you competing when internationally marketing your B2B software?

B2B startups, and even more established companies, that develop innovative products are very focused on the product and its development. These companies have invested all of their capital, time and efforts into developing and improving the product. When they face difficulties entering international markets, they don’t seem to understand why it’s so hard to sell a product that is better than the competition, and why clients don’t simply realize it and just buy the product or at least start [...]

Should you sign a B2B software distribution agreement with overseas distributors?

Most B2B software companies I work with seek to identify distributors, resellers or other channel partners in order to promote their products in relevant international markets.

“The Distributor is My Client”

Any reasonable person would tell you that this statement has a built-in contradiction. In a live survey that I conducted during one of my lectures in front of a large and experienced crowd of exporters, around 67% believed that if a locally-based company that develops or manufactures products and solutions works with a distributor or other channel partner abroad and issues them an invoice, then the distributor is that company’s client. A few exceptions aside, this is a mistake. The [...]
