Answers before you deploy.
Clear boundaries make commercial representation more effective.
What is Fractional Market Presence?+
Fractional Market Presence gives a company access to experienced local commercial representation without requiring it to immediately hire a permanent team or establish a full local operation.
What is a TradeDelegate?+
A TradeDelegate is a contracted professional assigned to represent a client company’s commercial interests for a defined engagement.
Is a TradeDelegate an employee of my company?+
Generally, no. TradeDelegates operate under a defined contractual representation arrangement unless another structure is specifically established.
Can a TradeDelegate attend a conference for us?+
Yes. Conference representation is one of the core services.
Can you staff our exhibition booth?+
Yes, where appropriate. TradeDelegate is designed for commercial representation rather than basic temporary staffing, so engagements can also include prospect qualification, meetings, partnerships, and follow-up.
Can the representative speak on our behalf?+
Within the authority agreed in your engagement. The representative should never claim authority that has not been granted.
Can our CEO join meetings remotely?+
Yes. Important prospects can be connected directly with your internal executives by video or phone.
Do you guarantee sales?+
No. Activity and agreed deliverables can be guaranteed where stated, but commercial outcomes depend on the client, market, prospects, product, pricing, and competition.
Do you guarantee a specific number of meetings?+
Some packages may include meeting targets. These should be defined in the engagement proposal.
Do you provide immigration or visa services?+
No. TradeDelegate is a commercial representation and market-presence service. It does not provide immigration legal advice or promise visa outcomes.
Can we use TradeDelegate even if we can travel normally?+
Absolutely. Many companies use fractional representation because it is more efficient than sending executives to every market or event.
Can you represent us for several months?+
Yes. Fractional Market Presence engagements can run on monthly or project-based agreements.
Which countries do you cover?+
Coverage depends on representative availability and industry requirements. Submit the target market and coverage can be confirmed during scoping.
Can one TradeDelegate cover several conferences?+
Yes, depending on geography, dates, scope, and industry.
Can you help us find distributors?+
Distributor identification and outreach can be included in Market Presence and Market Activation engagements.
Will you sign contracts for us?+
Not unless specifically authorized under an appropriate written agreement. Standard representation does not automatically include authority to bind the client legally.
