The Dirt

05-12-2023 • 9 mins

In this solocast, Jim Barnish explores three actions an international company needs to take when entering the US market.

Some of what Jim gets into:

  • Testing for Product Market Fit: An international company can have an amazing product, but if it doesn't resonate with the US market, then it’s going to almost certainly fail. Understanding the cultural nuances and preferences of the American consumer base is crucial for penetrating the market effectively.
  • Leverage a US-based Growth Consulting Firm: They’ll have a deep cultural understanding, networking advantages, and market research expertise that you’ll need to be successful. Embarking on your US expansion journey shouldn’t be a crapshoot.

To successfully enter the US market and avoid stumbling blocks, you need to carefully plan and execute a strategic market entry strategy. Be sure to listen to this episode for Jim’s actionable strategies to avoid common mistakes.
