Export readiness - diagnostic tool for service exporters

Click on the above picture
While firms may get an unsolicited query through fortuitous circumstances, they are unlikely to be profitable abroad without having addressed the following three essential factors:

Resources (internal capacity, efficient systems, marketing skills, senior management support).

Competitiveness (unique service, market entry methods, market research).

Expectations (clear and achievable export objectives, open-mindedness, realism).


The Export Readiness Diagnostic tool is a software that assists service export firms in assessing their readiness to export. You can dowload a zipped copy of the Export Readiness tool by clicking here.

 

Tourism strategy development template (CD-ROM)

Tourism strategies (where they exist in developing countries) evolve from the existing, local, leading-player dominated framework. Strategies tend to be fragmented and uncoordinated. The ITC Tourism Strategy Template is a CD-based, step-by-step process tool which is not prescriptive. It enables the development of a tourism strategy, formed through teamwork by leading representatives. The tool enables local people to develop their own locally-specific strategy in a global context of evolving tourism patterns, using international definitions and statistical measures.

The template is for use by a “Core Team” drawn from government and the private sector, with participation and consultation with all interested parties and businesses.


The Tourism Strategy Template is used in a series of working sessions with the members of the Core Team.

To order a copy of the template please contact us.
