A new guide to support potential exporters based in Ireland was launched in January. Export Start Guide is a joint initiative developed by Enterprise Ireland, Chartered Accountants Ireland and Invest Northern Ireland to help businesses to export.

Export Start Guide highlights the benefits of exporting and includes practical advice on selling internationally. In addition to case studies taken from the experiences of companies that are already successful in overseas markets, the Export Start Guide offers comprehensive, practical guidance information for businesses considering new markets and opportunities.

The Guide covers:

• Why Export
• Is Exporting right to you
• How to Export
• Export Planning
• Resources

Copies of the guide are available for free at www.ExportStartGuide.com
