Scope of Work

Three capabilities. One engagement.

Every engagement covers all three capabilities across the full sales cycle. The work is not split into discrete deliverables.

01 / Buyer Development

Strategic buyer introductions

Identification of U.S. buyers relevant to your product, with direct outreach calibrated to each company's procurement process.

02 / Commercial Navigation

Cross-cultural & commercial support

Translation between Korean and American business norms across the sales cycle — meeting briefings, real-time interpretation, negotiation guidance.

03 / Deal Management

Deal support through signature

Full deal management from first meeting through signed contract — follow-up coordination, sample logistics, contract review, and vendor onboarding.

Operating Practice

How the work runs.

Four practices that hold across every engagement, regardless of sector or deal size.

01

Principal-led engagements

Engagements are run end-to-end by the firm's principals. The same person handles outreach, negotiation support, contract review, and post-close coordination.

02

Through-signature deal management

Involvement runs from first outreach through signed contract — including follow-up coordination, sample logistics, contract review, and U.S. vendor onboarding.

03

Bilateral operations

Operations run from Seoul and the United States. Buyer relationships are built and maintained on the U.S. side; client coordination is handled on the Seoul side.

04

Retainer + success structure

Engagements combine a monthly retainer with success fees tied to closed business. Pure-commission and pay-per-lead arrangements are not part of the firm's commercial structure.

Start a Conversation

Every engagement begins with a discovery call.

A 30-minute conversation about your product, your U.S. commercial objectives, and the right structure for moving forward.
