Operating primarily from New York City, with regular UK visits, Gordon offers UK businesses a valuable presence in the US, and vice versa. He will initially spend time at your premises, meeting with senior management and key stakeholders to gain an understanding of your business, strategy and culture, and then become your overseas representative.
With an ongoing requirement for companies to improve efficiency and reduce costs, travel is becoming a major opportunity to address both areas. Time away from the office can be demanding and damaging to your business and customers, and the cost for just one overseas' meeting will be in the thousands. And for new businesses, where to start with building a network, understanding the economy, and maintaining a company office?
This is the fastest growing part of our business, and Gordon has a range of packages, from individual consulting days or having a New York address and use of office space when you visit, to full monthly retainers for ongoing representation of your company in the US or UK.
Gordon can attend meetings throughout North America, at a significantly lower cost than sending someone from the UK. And if you need to visit New York (for business or a weekend break), you have access to an office / bedroom, all included in the monthly fee. And with our referral programme, you can receive free Continental Airlines flight vouchers to make getting here easier (see news page for details).
Give your company a US base, and an experienced and valuable team member; and substantially reduce your travel costs; and improve your time management and quality of life. Gordon has the network, experience and personality to enhance your company's reputation overseas, reduce your workload and travel costs, and introduce you to a new market. US companies are finding that 'buying British' is very cost effective, particularly with work that can be performed over the internet (advertising, design, PR and media are current favourites), and retail opportunities for British brands to penetrate the US.
Gordon works alongside various public and private organisations, and is currently helping Scottish businesses to acquire new customers, have a US presence, organise events on their behalf, and review their strategic direction. If you have no ties, and are fascinated by George Clooney's lifestyle in "Up in the Air", then Gordon can assist you to develop this; if not, he can take the stress and cost out of your travel, open up new opportunities, provide you with an overseas base, and be a very valuable member of your team in another continent. And with frequent trips over the Atlantic, he will be in regular face-to-face contact with your home business.
So give your company a New York address, and a competent and inspiring representative to cover the entire US for you.
