What edge, leverage or service will you apply to an OP enquiry?

First, you've got a lot of competition. Most companies selling carbide tooling have been around for decades and have a marketing and sales network built-up over those years. They have technical reps (worldwide) that will answer cutting geometry and grading questions and make production suggestions right at the client's place of business. Selling internationally, you'll need a manned 24-7 telephone service with people that can answer questions. This is a tall order.

Suggestion: Do a little marketing survey to find unique tools that are becoming more and more popular (i.e. micro boring bars, miniature thread mills, form ground porting tools) in today's trend to miniaturize products. Items that are flying under the radar screens of big companies... customs, specials, etc. Sell the service, not the product. Remember, it's the sizzle and scent of the cooking steak that's most appetizing.

Dear Friend,

Thanx for your valueable advice.

"...to USA and Other European Countries..."

I respectfully submit that the best way to get started is to come to grips with the fact that the U.S.A. is NOT a European country. We were colonized by, and largely settled by European countries, and have received millions of immigrants from them, but we have long had a separate identity. Plus, we are on the North American continent, not the EurAsian one.

BIG difference!
