Six steps for a winning market-entry strategy
You have your eye on a new market. You’re certain your products or services are a perfect fit. But to get there, you’ll first need to develop a strategy.
Carl Gravel, director, International Expansion at BDC says a market entry strategy is a key tool for clarifying what you aim to achieve, how you’re going to achieve it, and will provide you with a road map for your whole business when you enter a new market.
A typical market entry strategy, he says, can take six to 18 months to implement. That timeline is well worth the effort as it will make sure you have the best distribution channels in place, that you are launching the right product and that your goals align with those of your stakeholders.
Here are six steps you can follow to build a winning market-entry strategy and start exporting into previously unknown territory.
Set clear goals
Be specific about what you want to achieve in your new market, including the level of sales you can expect to reach. Keep referring to these goals as you flesh out your strategy to help you stay on track and confirm that your opportunity, products/services and overall business goals are aligned.
Research your market
Use every means at your disposal to get to know your new market, including going there in person. Gravel suggests attending trade shows as a participant or exhibitor to meet people, learn about the competition and make business contacts in the area.
When getting to know your market, it’s important that you learn
about it in every dimension – not just business-wise but also socially, culturally and politically. If you’re entering a region with a different language or cultural norms than Canada, think about how you’ll communicate with key contacts. Explore all the rules that could affect your product and how you produce and deliver it. You’ll also need to understand your labelling requirements to ensure your packaging complies with local regulations. Learn about different distribution channels, too. At this stage, says Gravel, it’s advisable to seek information and counsel from embassies, consulates and industry associations.
Study the competition
A detailed competitive analysis based on your research and visits to the target market will help you make key decisions; for example, if you need to modify your product or service to customize it for that market.
Gravel says most businesses underestimate the degree of competition existing in new markets. Getting expert advice from a consultant can help clarify the challenges.
Choose your mode of entry
There are many ways to enter a new market. You can use the services of a distributor or agent located there. You might become a franchisee or acquire an existing business. You can even construct an entirely new brickand-mortar facility.
Gravel says in his experience, a lot of companies start by going into the U.S. first, and most choose to partner with an existing distributor. If you choose that path, make sure your strategy includes a unique value proposition for the distributor. Your partner will want to understand what’s in it for them, and how your product or service is different enough to stand out in the marketplace, but not so different that buyers won’t understand what it is.
Figure out your financing needs
Find out if you’ll need to get any financing to support your export venture. You may also want to get insurance that protects your company against losses when a customer cannot pay. EDC offers credit insurance that can help you avoid cash flow issues when an international customer fails to pay.
Develop the strategy document
Once you’ve worked out the details of your strategy, you’ll be ready to write it out. Once created, this document will be your blueprint going forward, detailing your goals, research findings, contacts, budgets, major action items and timelines, and how you’ll monitor and evaluate your success on an ongoing basis.
“Be as structured as possible,” says Gravel. “Once you have a plan, it is easier to follow the action items and not be overwhelmed.”
He also advises having your accountant, lawyer and an external specialist review your strategy. You want to ensure you haven’t missed something that will prevent you from entering the market or require you to pull back after you get there. CI

Get the right type of insurance for your business
Your business may have many assets: Vehicles, office space and equipment, inventory, an indispensable employee or partner and, most importantly, yourself. To protect these assets and to protect your business from potential risks, you should consider getting insurance.
All businesses take some risks, but taking too many risks or failing to protect yourself does not make good business sense. Could your
business survive if one of the partners dies or becomes disabled? Would you have sufficient cash on hand to deal with any business
emergency that could arise? In many cases, the answers to these and other questions about risk is “no”.
Insurance needs vary greatly and it is best to get advice from an insurance broker or agent who is familiar with your specific type of business. The following are different types of insurance that may apply to your business.
Insurance for owners, partners and key employees
The loss of a key person can devastate your business and your
livelihood. These types of insurance can help protect your business and your family from potential risks:
• Life insurance — Protects your family in the event that something happens to you. This is especially important in the case of a sole proprietorship, because the owner is personally liable for all the debts of the business.
• Disability insurance — Will provide you with income for a specified period of time, if you are unable to work due to an injury or illness.
• Partnership insurance or buy-sell insurance — If your business partner passes away, partnership insurance will allow you to purchase the shares and continue running the business.
• Critical illness insurance — Provides you with a lump sum benefit, if you are diagnosed with a critical illness.
• Key person insurance — If you rely on certain key people to help run your business, protect yourself against the loss of these key employees. Speak to your accountant to find out which of these are deductible as business expenses and which ones you will need to pay for yourself as an individual.
Insurance for business property and earnings
You need to protect your assets and earnings in the event that a disaster or emergency destroys part or all of your business premises and assets. This could include:
• Property insurance — Property insurance will cover the property and buildings owned by your business in the event of destruction or damage due to things like fire and other perils.
• Contents insurance — This covers assets that you store at your business premises. If you are leasing space for your business, the owner of the property probably has property insurance, but you are likely responsible for your own contents insurance. If you run your
business out of your home, you will likely need separate contents insurance for your business assets.
• Business interruption insurance
— If you need to shut down your business temporarily due to a fire or other peril, business interruption insurance will cover your loss of earnings until you are back in business.
• Vehicle insurance — You will need to insure any vehicles that your business owns. If you use personal vehicles for business purposes, be sure to advise your insurance company.
Liability insurance
Mistakes happen. You, your employees, your equipment or your suppliers could be the cause of mistakes that ultimately end up hurting your customers, your employees or other people who are involved with your business. To protect your business from being sued, you should consider these types of insurance to limit your liability:
• General liability — Covers injury to clients or employees on your premises
• Product liability — Provides protection in the event that your products are defective or cause serious harm to those using them
• Professional liability insurance
— Provides protection if you are sued by a client for errors, omissions or negligence, when performing professional services
• Cyber liability — Protects in the event of a lawsuit stemming from an electronic security breach involving compromised personal or commercial information. Can include situations relating to the theft of devices containing organizational, client, employee, or similar data.
Accounts receivable insurance
Having a client that does not pay can leave you in a difficult situation.
You need to protect your assets and earnings in the event that a disaster or emergency destroys part or all of your business premises and assets.
You have to pay your employees and suppliers, and are essentially stuck covering the costs of goods sold, without the corresponding revenue. Accounts receivable insurance, also known as credit insurance, can help protect you from this risk, when a client goes bankrupt or refuses to pay.
The risks are often greater when dealing with export markets. The government offers export insurance to cover a variety of risks including accounts receivable insurance.
Health insurance
Providing a health insurance plan for employees can be a key factor in recruitment and retention of employees. You can talk to an insurance broker or company about group plans covering supplemental health and dental benefits for your employees.
Get the right insurance for your business. Making sure you have the correct business insurance can provide peace of mind. To discuss your business insurance options, contact an insurance representative to find or develop a plan that is right for you and your business. You may also wish to contact your local chamber of commerce or industry association, as some organizations offer members lower rates on their business insurance. CI

to be transformed into a hotel
Fusioncorp Developments Inc. of Toronto has been awarded a construction management contract valued at $8 million to convert and expand a fivestorey residential site at 45 Mutual St. in Toronto from a residence/commercial building to a hotel.
Called Hotel Beebop, the expansion will add four new levels (48 units with a gross floor area of 18,582 sq. ft.) atop the existing structure, with a similar floorplate.
As the construction manager, Fusioncorp will work with the
developer Castl Inc. and onespace unlimited inc. (architecture and interior design) to create the modern exterior and spacious interiors.
“We are intrigued by this project,” says Nick Ainis, co-founder and
CEO of Fusioncorp Developments. “We have many successful building conversions and expansions in our portfolio and a hotel in the downtown Toronto core is a welcome addition. The address is ranked a walker’s, rider’s and biker’s paradise on walkscore.com, which is ideal for hotel guests. This conversion poses some challenges, including construction access in such a busy area. We’re looking forward to getting underway.”
Construction is slated to begin later this year. Projected completion date is Spring 2026. CI

With the ever-increasing demand for multi-unit residential properties amongst investors, a trend has been emerging over the last number of years. Many properties, and certainly buildings with 30+ units, are seeing multiple offers as part of an open bid submission process.

If you aren’t familiar with the bid submission process, it is the act of marketing a property for sale without providing a price. Typically, the Seller will provide all due diligence documents in advance of the offer deadline to allow buyers to determine what they are willing to offer on any given property. Sellers love this process as it can generally lead to multiple offers and can create a bidding war that drives up their end price. Buyers dislike this process, however, because they prefer to have some guidance on pricing going into the offer stage. As a brokerage, we are caught in the middle of wanting to deliver great results for our Seller and satisfying our buyer clients’ demands for more investment properties.

What we have been noticing with these open bid properties is that ‘upside’ becomes a very common discussion point. The value a buyer places on the upside in a building can often become the factor that makes their offer stand out among the rest, at least as it relates to purchase price.

When considering what the upside is on a property, its more than just rental rate upside, especially considering the lower vacancy rates seen in the Ontario market nowadays. Beyond the upside of what you could rent turned-over units for, investors are looking at upside in the utility consumptions by implementing programs to replace lighting with LED bulbs, installing Low-flow toilets in every unit, and investing in higher efficiency heating equipment. Upside can also be found in converting excess space in a building to either additional units, commercial space, or amenities that could draw in greater tenant rents. Sometimes even the location of the property itself

Whatever the upside factors may be on any particular property, when going into a purchase process, understanding what YOUR value is on the upside will give you a leg up when bidding against other buyers. It appears that, at least for the time being, the sale price of the property is no longer determined just by market comparable sales. It is now the grey areas of upside that are driving the prices higher. Of course if every seller had their way, the Buyer would be paying for 100% of the upside in their purchase price but realistic sellers also know that they need to leave something on the table for a buyer. As a buyer, you need to know what the upside is and how much you are willing to pay for that upside. It is a business decision that only you can determine based on your operations.

To be fair when discussing bid submission processes, it should be stated that price may not always be the only factor when a seller chooses one offer to work with over another, but it is likely the most significant factor. As an example, buyers are becoming more and more organized in their purchasing processes in order to streamline their conditional periods and closing dates, as this can also help to achieve a sign back from a Seller when multiple offers are on the table. Especially if all offering prices are neck and neck, the terms of the offer becomes an important factor for a seller.

You may not be a fan of the open bid submission process, but it appears as if this new trend will be sticking around. By doing proper due diligence upfront, good research on the property’s market, and determining the price you want to pay for the upside, you can still achieve great acquisitions in this tight and highly sought after investment class.
