I visited your profile this morning, noting that you are starting an import/export business. What is your target market? Online, brick & mortar?
I`d be more than happy to give you some feedback, just need a little more info, please.
You can post your response on this forum so that other new entrepreneurs may learn as well. Please also feel free to email me directly at FavoriteThingz@cox.net</A>

As far as sales mentors go, Todd Duncan (toddduncan.com) and Tom Hopkins (tomhopkins.com) are hands-down my favorites.
More powerful than a brochure is a feature article in your local newspaper about what you are doing. Buy an hour of time from a top PR person, they can help you understand how to get this done for yourself.
One thing I will mention is to get in tune with the challenges/struggles/issues that your potential clients deal with and maybe gear your messaging around it. Instead of just telling what you do, tell who you help while relating to their challenges/struggles. (then maybe people will say, "Oh, that`s me, I need this service/product, I should talk to this person, those are my challenges/goals/issues/struggles) Well, you get the idea!
This will help you engage your prospects.
I love sales and I am a professional www.CoachWithJeremy.com
