Words of the President of our AbetInternational and of the holding J. C. Melo Technical Consulting Co.Inc, Dr. J. C. Melo, 78 years old with almost 60 years of continuous experience in IT, IT and business management: Exactly in the period of that world crisis you should study to get your MBA, in order to be much more competitive in the job market. At some point the economy is going to rebound. And when it does, it’s important to ensure that job teams remain excited to be part of the culture. Now more than ever it’s time to invest in talent.

Do not believe that a MBA should be obligatorily of long duration! We are not a "cheap" University, the five main reasons that explain our low cost MBAs are: 1.

As tariff barriers [tariffs,  duties and quotas] are ëliminated around the world in accordance with the requirements of participation in the World Trade Organization [WTO],  other non-tariff barriers,  such as product standards,  are proliferating.

An example: While the issue centered on whether a claim was timely filed,  the court discussed the issue of the carrier’s liability,  and noted that there would have been no delivery so long as anything remained to be done by the carrier,  such as unloading.  However,  the court granted summary judgment for the carrier due to the claimant’s failure to file a claim within nine months from the date delivery should have been made.

Common engineering changes needed to conform to the country specific requirements.

Foreign distributors and sales representatives generally work on commission,  assume no risk or responsibility,  and are under contract for a specified period.

Though there are multiple complexities in export marketing,  you most concentrate on issues and challenges relating to the need for product adaptation for export markets.

The letter of credit is issued,  sent to the advising bank who in turn advises IT¹ to the beneficiary,  also known as the broker or middle man.

Foreign Government product regulations now common in international trade are expected to expand in the future.

Firms that market their products and services internationally expect higher growth rates than those which concentrate exclusively on domestic markets,  reports financial consulting firm Coopers & Lybrand.

Scope of Product Adaptation Product adaptation deals with a whole range of issues,  ranging from quality and appearance of products,  to materials,  processing,  production equipment,  packaging,  style and modeling.

Engineering changes needed: Knowledge of legal and operating requirements will help the exporter to determine whether that ‘special’ that is selling well in the home country needs to be substituted or should an arrangement be made to offer a different drive ratio to achieve the desired operating revolutions per minute.

The packaging design should be based on the Customer needs.  In industrial products the pack should be considered for its usage and for its amenability to storing,  pouring,  re-use,  etc.

Once the endorsement is taken care of,  the bank will issue a document or letter titled Assignment of Proceeds addressed,  in this case,  to the supplier.  The content of this document will indicate that an assignment of proceeds has been made in their favor with a stated value.  IT¹ will also indicate that if and when payment is made under the letter of credit,  payment will automatically be made under the assignment.

Engineering changes needed: Measurement Systems—specifications,  manuals,  instructions,  labels,  dimensions,  and parts may need to be converted to the metric system.

Disputes often occur in the distribution cycle over which party must bear the loss of a shipment due to a contention that the carrier had not yet taken control of the shipment or had made a “delivery” according to the bill of lading.

Doing business in foreign markets can be very different from doing business here at home,  so don't be afraid to ask for help.
