Module 7 – How to Export Your Products

A recent study of small businesses in the United States showed that almost 75% do not export. This is one of the biggest mistakes that a company can make. You must be born global, which means exporting from the very beginning. In module 7, we discuss all of the benefits of exporting and how to get started.

Entrepreneurship falls into two categories: opportunity and necessity. We would say that the entrepreneurs of the 1990s saw an opportunity and exploited it. The young boy that sells oranges on the side of the road so this family does not starve would be called a necessity entrepreneur. We study this important distinction in this lesson.
