Our principal Dave Archer, also known as The Export Coach, is 100% focused on doing everything possible to help Canadian companies generate more export sales. A three-time Export Award winner and Lead Facilitator for the Toronto World Trade Centre’s award-winning Trade Accelerator Program (TAP), he has done business in over 40 countries during his 25+ year career – and his experience and insights are now available to all Canadian companies that are serious about growing globally.

Our core business is bridging the gap between Canadian and Mexican companies. Our professional, fractional team acts as yours, giving you offices and staff in both countries whenever you need us.

ABOUT US

WHY CANMEX?

We believe more Canadian companies would do business in Mexico if they had the right tools, knowledge, and partner to do so.

Our sole purpose is to help Canadian companies do business successfully in the Mexican market. The most rewarding outcome we can possibly achieve is “handing over the keys” to our partners after we have launched them in Mexico. We really do care about the companies we partner with, and use our extensive experience and on-the-ground presence, resources, and network to help ensure that all of them succeed.

Many of our activities and services qualify for government funding — the CanExport grant, for example. Ask us about it!

WHAT WE DO & HOW WE DO IT

SALES

This often involves searching for and qualifying the right Mexican distributor(s) for you.

First, we get to know your product or service, identify your ideal customer or distributor, and develop a powerful value proposition.

Next, we identify and reach out to prospects, visit the best ones personally, and share everything we found — along with our analysis — with you.

Then, if it looks like you have an opportunity and you’d like us to stay on board with you, the sales process begins, supported by our office in Mexico as part of your team.

But, if you’re ready to do it on your own, we’ll part as friends and remain ready to help if you need it.

These are typically short and medium- term projects.

RESOURCING

First, we clearly define the product, service, or solution you are looking for (and just as importantly, NOT looking for).

We use our resources in Canada and Mexico to target, qualify, approach, get quotations, and negotiate with potential suppliers on your behalf.

Then, you decide whether or not to go ahead with the options we provide you.

These are typically short-term projects.

TRAINING

Some of our partners prefer to utilize their in-house team as much as possible. But sometimes those people need specialized training to maximize their effectiveness.

We can import our broad experience to your staff quickly, targeted at the gaps your staff may have, to help you drive success from within your organization.

In some cases, we use focused experts we know who are best qualified to deliver the in-depth knowledge you or your staff need to succeed.

These are typically short-term or crash course projects.

CONSULTING

Sometimes your international business needs or objectives do not fall into any of the above categories. If that’s the case, just give us a call or shoot us an email, and let’s spend a few minutes discussing what you want to achieve. If we can help, we’ll tell you how. If we can’t, we’ll tell you that too! Either way, it’s free to find out!
