Success story
A well known cosmetics and skin care company wanted to expand internationally. They were evaluating emerging markets such as Russia and China. I traveled with the Chairman and CEO to Moscow, conducted an initial analysis, provided market and competitive intelligence, created a go to market strategy, set up operations and executed that strategy, recruited and trained an independent direct selling sales force and scaled the company to over $100 M in sales in five years.
