Analyzing Export Challenges and Key Factors

Before importing, this study is crucial for determining your true profitability. It analyzes:

  • Tariff Barriers: Import duties (Tariff Classification).
  • Non-Tariff Barriers: Certifications and Standards (NOMs) for labeling, packaging, etc.
  • Total Landed Cost: Logistics, customs clearance, warehousing, and commercialization.

Step 4: Logistical Operations (Webinar 4)

From the Warehouse to Your Customer's Hands

Real solutions for warehousing, fulfillment, and last-mile delivery.

  • Fulfillment: Start with FBA (Amazon/ML) for low volume; scale with an external 3PL to reduce per-unit costs.
  • Reverse Logistics: Comprehensive management (administrative and physical) of returns—a critical point.
  • Bonded Warehouse: An advanced (and more costly) option to defer tax payments on merchandise.

Step 5: "Localizing" Communication and Social Media Impact (Webinar 5)

Genuinely Connecting with the Mexican Customer

Translation is not enough. Your campaign's success depends on understanding the culture (114M+ social media users).

  • Cultural Adaptation: Understand the nuances of local language, humor, memes, and trends.
  • Channel Strategy: Use WhatsApp (human interaction), Facebook/Instagram (branding), and TikTok (viral content).
  • B2B Business: Utilize LinkedIn for technical sales and building credibility.
