Long sales cycles, large orders and a contact who is hard to find

Selling a machine abroad is nothing like selling a consumer product: there is a project, there is engineering, and there is a technical buyer nobody reaches through a contact form. Exporta.ai finds the companies that use what you build, and the person who decides inside.

Your customer is not defined by a generic sector but by a process: who packs hot, who cuts sheet metal of a certain thickness. No commercial database is sorted that way.

Purchasing signs the decision and engineering validates it. Writing to only one of them stretches the cycle by months or kills it.

CE marking, local standards, who repairs the machine 2,000 km away. These are the questions that close or sink the deal, and they arrive late if nobody prepared them.

Search by what they do, not what they are called

You describe which company your machine serves and the AI finds those that fit by activity, size and country, with their website and profile. Then, inside each one, the person.

Both decision makers

Technical and purchasing roles at the same company are located, so you can work them in parallel instead of waiting for one to introduce you to the other.

Entry conditions, with their source

Duty, required certifications and technical barriers for the country, cited. It is what decides whether your price holds, and what you cannot discover after signing.

They exported to three countries through inherited contacts. They searched for food packers in six new markets and found 180 with a real fit; the first order came from a production manager they would never have reached through the switchboard.

An illustrative example of typical use; it does not describe a specific customer.

You describe it in your own words, not from a dropdown of sectors. The more concrete you are —which process it solves, at what volume, in which industry— the better it searches, because it searches by the company’s real activity and not by its classification code.

That is what the CRM is for: every contact keeps its history, which stage it is at and what was said last time, including what was said at a fair. A long cycle is lost to forgetting, not to lack of interest.
