Within the last 10 years, exporting has become the prime growth area for U.S. businesses, especially for firms with cutting-edge technology, efficient, low-cost production and world-class products.

A Basic Guide to Exporting is the U.S. Department of Commerce's respected introduction to exporting. It is designed to help firms learn the costs and risks associated with exporting, and develop a strategy for success. The book discusses which decisions need to be made and where to obtain the knowledge to make them.

The 16 chapters are divided into three sections: covering before the sale, making the sale, and after the sale issues. There are also five appendices on export terms, federal export assistance, state and local assistance, U.S. and overseas contacts in major markets, and a bibliography.

This is the best-selling introduction to exporting in existence. It is used by small companies and large corporations, bankers, attorneys, trade missions, universities and students. It is by far the exporting guide of choice for U.S. businesses.

World Trade Press has just extensively revised and updated A Basic Guide to Exporting. Significant new information on export regulation, customs benefits and tax incentives is included. In addition, hundreds of new sources of assistance are available with updated addresses and telephone numbers.
