What's changing in cross-border commercial expansion

The organizations that expand most successfully into new markets are consistently the ones that treat market-entry diligence as a distinct phase with its own budget and timeline, rather than an assumption folded into the general expansion plan.

A recurring pattern worth naming: buying-process length is one of the most frequently underestimated differences between markets, and sales forecasts built on home-market cycle assumptions tend to run persistently behind in markets with longer typical decision cycles.
