What does this involve?
This free online tool helps businesses in Scotland assess where they are on their exporting journey, what their next steps should be, and what support is available. It's helpful for both established exporters and businesses new to exporting.
It is an easy-to-use, self-serve tool that takes less than 10 minutes to complete.
The tool will ask you to respond to a set of questions, then will build a tailored export progress report based on your answers. The report will:
- explain where your company is in its export journey
- summarise the progress you've already made
- suggest next steps and key tasks that will help you progress in exporting
- direct you to relevant support that's available from Scottish Enterprise and other sources to help you progress
The report will be emailed to you as a PDF document that you can keep and refer back to. The length of the report will vary depending on your circumstances and responses.
Am I eligible?
This service is available to all Scottish businesses.
What does this cost?
This is a free service.
Who is this for?
Scottish businesses that are currently exporting, or that want to begin exporting.
How long does this take?
It will take approximately 5 to 10 minutes to answer the questions in the tool. Your tailored export progress report will be generated and emailed to you within a few minutes.
The length of the report will vary depending on your circumstances and responses, but you should allow up to 20 minutes to read the entire document.
