Some organizations discuss exporting and the “how to’s” from the broadest of perspectives. As a result, managers get excited
about the markets waiting for them and their company’s products…and rightfully. However, the factors
involved in long-term success go way beyond the broad explorations of the market potential. ICE offers
the details you need to ensure success in the international marketplace.
Your
people will be able to meet, discuss and develop relationships with their counterparts at member
companies such as Orbis Corp, Briggs & Stratton Corporation, The Vollrath Company LLC, Milwaukee
Electric Tool Corporation, Hatco Corp, Alliance Laundry Systems LLC, Trane Company, Trek Bicycle,
Cooper Power Systems, and P&H Mining Equip.
You’ll be able to take advantage of
experts in exporting from resource members such as Wells Fargo Global Bank, M&I Marshall & Ilsley, HSBC, JP Morgan Chase,
Bank of Montreal-Harris, ME Dey & Company, Euler Hermes ACI, and the U.S. and Wisconsin Departments of Commerce.
If
your company exports, you need the ICE Group.
For
information on the next ICE Group meeting…of if you would like complete details about membership, call
Dianna Rowinski at Wisconsin Credit Association, 262.827.2880 X225.
I'M A BELIEVER
When WCA and ICE were advertising in January and February that they were running a discounted special on Coface reports
it piqued my interest. I have had a report contract with WCA for several years but was not using it. However, the nice thing about
buying a contract from WCA, is that your units don’t expire within a year. So having had these units for several years, I decided to
use them on trying the Coface reports. I had been using Brand X for all of my International reports but was not satisfied with them
because most of the time they didn’t give me very much information even though the reports were easy and fast to get. I have now
received three Coface reports and I could not believe the wealth of information that I received including up-to-date financial data.
If you are looking for a change in your international credit reports, contact WCA and try a Coface report and I am sure you will be a
believer as well. It may take a few days longer, but it is well worth the wait.

"OBAMA AFTER YEAR ONE--ARE YOU STILL STIMULATED"
in the Morning
Presented by: Menzie Chinn
Professor of Economics & Public Affairs at the Lafollette School at UW-Madison
Meeting Location: UW Madison-Fluno Center
Madison WI
In response to the "Great Recession," President Obama signed a $787 billion economic stimulus package known
as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. We will discuss the federal government's policy
responses to the economic crisis, including monetary policy and fiscal policy, proposals for new financial
regulations, the harmonization of the international financial policy and trade policy.
"MAINTAINING BRAND CONSISTENCY IN THE GLOBAL MARKET"
in the Afternoon
Presented by: Linda Gorchels
Director of Executive Marketing Education at UW School of Business
Today's international marketplace is credibly competitive and
globalizing a brand is a serious challenge. Companies must determine which brand characteristics
apply in different markets, and which need to be localized. Experienced, international marketers know
the special challenges of building a brand abroad. We'll look at business models that cater to local
cultures, relationships, all accompanied by a 'real life' global branding effort of a Wisconsin
company.
More details about these two sessions can be found in the announcement.
