I'm in the Master of Entrepreneurship at Western Carolina University and all of the courses are on-line. The program is highly rated and the cost is a bargain. You will learn all about what you need to do to start up a business, including funding and marketing. Here's a place to start http://www.wcu.edu/3863.asp and feel free to call and them ask questions. I believe that you may be able to take only those courses that you feel you need. I'm taking ENT 693 right now and it is exclusively about marketing a small or start-up business.

  • Study the demand and supply potential of your products in the US market, its viability/feasibility.- in short, A market survey
  • Prepare a catalogue with products, specifications, applications...etc.,.
  • Identify potential end users, yellow pages, industrial directories....
  • For a beginning, go in for free listing on the many B2B websites
  • Create your website

Marketing can be done in many ways.

  1. Advertising in magazines dealing in similar products
  2. Direct marketing
    • sending catalogues to potential customers
    • direct calling asking for an appointment

I feel these are a few ways to go about it

IF you have the resources, you can appoint people / companies undertaking marketing of industrial products
