Thinking of ‘going global’? There are a million factors to consider, especially in today’s turbulent geopolitical landscape. And, as the US election looms, there’s a real risk that governments around the world could start imposing protectionist tariffs to protect their domestic economies. That’s scary because higher tariffs mean less margin for any company selling overseas. The upshot? Choosing the right country to expand to is even more crucial than it used to be. Here’s the good news: If you have good data-based intelligence and a coherent strategy, expanding into international markets is still a very viable growth strategy. Our advice? Don't rush and tread carefully - evaluate potential markets comprehensively, prioritize based on strategic fit, and be prepared to adapt to local conditions. Want some help making sure you choose the right international market? Let us know in the comments - we will be happy to talk you through it. #InternationalExpansion #goglobal #StrategicPlanning #BusinessSuccess

Did you know that half of all employees search for another job when a company makes two errors in calculating or paying their salary? Mistakes like this can even lead to your company going bankrupt ⚠️ The natural decision is to perform the role accurately, but how? Ideally, you should outsource the risk and responsibility to an expert 🕵️♀️ Four questions to ask yourself when outsourcing the function of payroll are: 1. Does the provider offer services that could further benefit your business? 2. What is the provider´s reputation? Do they respond and solve issues quickly? 3. How effective is their security in responding to and preventing data breaches? The “she'll be right” mentality is not enough 👎 4. And most importantly, do they understand your business? Outsourcing the function of payroll can be expensive. Making mistakes that lose employees and your business, however, costs even more.
