It was a great honor to address the "LE 7ème FESTIVAL DE LA CULTURE AMAZIGHE A FES", MOROCCO ON CULTURAL DIVERSITY. The presentation was 98% pictures to composite for any complications I may have with my Arabic and French. The presentation focused on The Asian, Middle East, European and Moroccan and Amazighe cultures. The pictures showed weddings, eating, languages, religions, celebrations, etc. and the way these are performed in the four cultures. The concluding comments focused on diversity in Morocco and especially amoung the Amazighe people, who are 30 to 50% of the population and how many of the Amazighe people speak 4+ languages, which often include Arabic, French, and English, and how they have during thousands of years benefited from the numerous cultures who have inhabited the land which they have enjoyed for thousands of years. In the picture is Professor Fatima Sadiqi, myself, Ahmed Boukouss, and Profess Moha Ennaji.

Bahrain: Abdulaziz Al Masaeed, the Distributor for Martin Doors in Saudi Arabia, lives in a city that is located on a land bridge that reaches to the island of Bahrain. To expand his business it was only natural for him to find a Dealer in Bahrain, who could purchase Martin Doors from his large warehouse. Dubai Shore Trading was soon established to help meet the demand for quality doors in Bahrain. Along with the doors the new company also received training on sales, marketing, and installation. Choosing to work with Abdulaziz not only created sales in Saudi Arabia, but also in Bahrain.

After establishing a contact plan, the dealers can be grouped into a "Distant" or "Close" international dealers. A distant international dealer is a company outside the USA that has only made one or two small purchases. A close international dealer is a company outside the USA that has made a "significant purchase" for small-sized items or technological information and/or makes "contain-load" purchases for large-sized items.

Would the first experience working with Professionals like Stan Rees of the US Commerce Department been successful if we hadn't follow up all the referrals Stan gave us from the UK Embassy? The answer is NO. What follow up did our company do after we received the name of Roy Chamberlain and two other interested companies? 1. We contacted Roy and the other two companies the same day we received the contact information by fax. Now we do this contact by email. 2. We sent Roy all the supportive information he requested. 3. We called Roy on the phone and developed a friendship. 4. Keith Martin made an appointment with all three companies. 5. A fast decision was made after Keith visited all three companies and after he met with Roy Chamberlain and Karen Diggle. Chamberlain Doors was to be Martin's Distributor. 6. Because Roy and Karen knew that Chamberlain Doors had been selected to be the UK Distributor for Martin Doors, Keith, Roy and Karen wrote up a first order for review when K...

Who are government professionals? Government Professionals are Federal, State, and Local, tax-paid international professions. They are paid for their expertise because of their intrinsic value to the US "Trade Balance" when US Exports increase. Because of their intrinsic value, they are paid whether or not their services are used by taxpaying companies and individuals , who can utilize their help to export products or services outside the USA. My first experience with these professionals was upon my first business trip to the Middle East and Europe, where I had shown samples of my product and received positive responses. Since I had taught International Marketing at the University of Utah, I knew the list of government professionals I could use. I started with Stan Rees, Assistant Director of the International Trade Administration of the Department of Commerce in Salt Lake City. Stan and I decided to do what was known as an, "Agent/Distributor Search." For a small f...
