Work we can talk about without naming the client.
A sample of recent engagements. The industries changed each time. The approach mostly did not.
Five projects, five different problems.
Every client thinks their situation is unique. Some of it always is. Here is what the work actually looked like on a few of them.
A consumer electronics brand's first year in Japan
The client made kitchen appliances and had never sold outside North America. We tested demand with retailers in three cities, found a distributor willing to carry the line, and got the first container through customs inside five months.
Getting a mid-size contractor licensed to bid in Poland
Public infrastructure tenders in Poland require a local entity and a licensed representative before you can submit a bid. We registered the company, found the representative, and had the paperwork ready before the next tender window opened.
Staffing a clinical support team in Mexico City
A healthcare technology company needed six clinical specialists on the ground before a hospital pilot could start. We sourced and screened candidates, matched contracts to local labor law, and had the team in place before the pilot's start date.
Untangling a customs bottleneck at the Polish border
An industrial pump manufacturer was losing a week at customs on every shipment into the EU. We audited the paperwork trail, fixed the classification codes causing the holds, and negotiated a bonded warehouse arrangement that cut clearance time to a day.
A retail chain's first look at the Seattle market
A European retailer wanted to know if their concept would work in the US before signing a lease. We ran foot traffic studies, priced out three neighborhoods, and delivered a plan showing where to open and what it would cost to get there.
They had six people cleared and working before our pilot start date. I did not think that was possible in eight weeks.
