Nova Orbis Global Business Advisors is a consulting company focused on Business Strategy, that has got a partnership network structure that also provides all support that a new company needs in order to be properly established in the US. From company formation, accounting services via CPAs (partnership), Tax ID issuance, legal support, premises/offices, Staffing, sales, Marketing and Business Development, all synchronized to reflect the client's strategic perspective.
NOVA ORBIS is a single-point-of-contact consulting partner. There are many companies that have competitive products and goods, in several areas like cosmetics, foods and beverage and others throughout Latin America, that still do not have any kind of local presence or assistance to market their products. What happens is that the vast majority of these companies do not feel properly prepared to expand their businesses to new markets due to several doubts that may appear in the planning process and in the implementation itself.
We can help you on that.
PLANNING PROCESS
In what regards to positioning, where is my company now?
Where do we want to be and in what time frame?
What do I need to do to sell my products/services in a new market/country?
Who are the competitors in that country, and how are they working the market? (Local, multinational, new entrants)
Is it feasible to establish productive and profitable partnerships or alliances?
What are the business best known practices for that specific Country?
Who is my target group for that market, and how do they behave?
