Basic Marketing Support includes: Marketing Plan, Advice on entering the U.S. Market, Prices from Competitors, Major Sales Channels, etc. We will also assist the clients to put these plans into practice. However, the sustaining marketing support needs additional marketing service, such as introducing buyers, etc.
If a large amount of translation services are required, fee should be paid correspondingly.
