    Into Seinäjoki: Entrepreneur Story – Mokka Market International Food Shop

    This episode is something a little different, I hope you enjoy it. In partnership with Into Seinäjoki & E-P WIISE ry, I interviewed my friend Mohammed Al-Marrani about his journey from the countryside of Yemen to the plains of South Ostrobothnia. He explains his dream of being an entrepreneur, his integration into Finnish society, the help and guidance he received to start his business and his plans to grow Mokka Market in the future.

    Sales Pitch Workshops Increase The Impact Of Your International Sales Meetings

    Since winter 2014, I have been working with Finnish companies to craft effective sales pitches that they can use in international sales situations. These have been used in pitching competitions, for one-on-one sales meeting and at international trade fairs and exhibitions. The workshops can be used to develop sales arguments for new products or to develop texts for marketing materials, company websites etc.  In November 2020, I was approached about something slightly different, five companies and five pitches in only two hours.

    E-P WIISE ry – Official Launch Event

    You have heard me mention the Work Integration for Immigrants Service (WIISE) in previous articles. As our plans for WIISE developed, it was decided to form a membership association (yhdistys). On Monday 9.11.2020, Etelä-Pohjanmaan WIISE ry was officially launched at an event held at the office of Xport and BSTR – Luova markkinoititoimisto in Seinäjoki. This ‘hybrid event’ was also livestreamed for those who had registered in advance. By the time the event started, WIISE already had 20 registered members and the WIISE team were delighted to have been joined live by approx. 40 people; 25 online and 15 in person. This episode is the audio of that event, where we introduce the inspiration behind this new venture, the work we have already done as WIISE and our future aims.

    Why Should YOU Practice Conversations In English?

    Recently, one of my ‘Sales Pitch workshop’ customers made a comment that made me think "This can really have a long-term effect". I’ve also been meeting people for regular English Conversation coaching for a few years, so I thought I’d share a few examples of how they have benefited from this.

    Don’t Miss Those Buying Signals From International Customers

    I’ve been working with the Finnish company HappyOrNot for the past 6 years on inbound sales. I recently experienced a couple of frustrating situations, in which I was trying to buy services and the company was completely ignoring my buying signals. This made me reflect on my HappyOrNot work.
