???? El Gran Error del “Soft Landing”: ?Por Qué la Mayoría de las Empresas Fracasan al Internacionalizarse? El soft landing es una de las estrategias más mencionadas por empresas que buscan expandirse a nuevos mercados. Sin embargo, el 80% de estas iniciativas fracasan. ?Por qué? Porque la mayoría de las empresas no entienden realmente lo que significa aterrizar con éxito en un nuevo ecosistema de negocios. Aquí están los errores más críticos que vemos una y otra vez: ? Falsa percepción del mercado – No basta con analizar datos macroeconómicos o hacer un estudio de mercado genérico. Sin conexiones locales y un entendimiento profundo del ecosistema empresarial, las empresas subestiman la complejidad cultural, legal y comercial. ? Falta de estructura financiera y legal – Muchas empresas creen que abrir una LLC o una filial es suficiente. Pero sin una estrategia fiscal, bancaria y de cumplimiento normativo adaptada al país objetivo, terminan en problemas financieros o bloqueadas operativamente. ? Red de contactos insuficiente – No basta con tener un par de reuniones con cámaras de comercio o asistir a eventos. El éxito se basa en alianzas estratégicas con actores clave del ecosistema empresarial local. Sin esto, el acceso a clientes, inversores y socios es limitado. ? Mal enfoque en talento y operaciones – Contratar personal local no es solo cuestión de poner un anuncio de empleo. Se necesita una estrategia de RR.HH. alineada con el mercado laboral del país y un modelo de gestión eficiente que garantice la integración cultural y operativa. ? Expectativas irreales de inversión y tiempo – La internacionalización no es inmediata ni barata. Las empresas que esperan resultados en 3-6 meses y no asignan el presupuesto adecuado para adaptarse, terminan abandonando el mercado antes de siquiera empezar a competir. ?? En CEETC (Central & Eastern European Trade Center) entendemos estos desafíos y cerramos las brechas entre Europa Central y del Este, América Latina y EE.UU. Proporcionamos una plataforma de soft landing que no solo asesora, sino que conecta y ejecuta, garantizando que las empresas realmente prosperen y no solo “prueben suerte” en un nuevo mercado. ?? Si estás considerando expandirte a EE.UU. o Europa Central y del Este desde América Latina, hablemos. Porque un soft landing mal ejecutado no es aterrizaje: es un choque contra el suelo. #Internacionalización #SoftLanding #ExpansiónEmpresarial #NegociosGlobales #CEETC #EuropaDelEste #Latinoamérica #EEUU #Networking #Empresas #Emprendimiento #EstrategiaDeNegocios #ComercioInternacional #B2B #ScaleUp

Fueling Growth: How CEETC Helps Companies Secure Cash Flow for U.S. Expansion Expanding into the U.S. market is a game-changer for businesses relocating from Eastern Europe, but without strong cash flow, even the best companies struggle. That’s where smart financing solutions like Accounts Receivable (AR) Financing come in. At CEETC, we understand that waiting 30, 60, or even 90 days for invoices to clear is not an option when scaling aggressively. Through our network of strategic financial partners, we help businesses access the capital locked in their receivables—turning outstanding invoices into immediate cash. ?? Why does this matter? ? Faster growth: No more waiting on payments to seize new opportunities. ? Stronger market positioning: Compete with U.S. firms on equal footing. ? Less reliance on debt: Access liquidity without taking on traditional loans. We work with SMBs, mid-market firms, and corporations relocating from Eastern Europe to the U.S., ensuring they have the financial firepower to scale—without cash flow constraints slowing them down. ?? If you’re looking to break into the U.S. market and need a banking strategy that works, let’s talk. #CashFlow #BusinessGrowth #Finance #TradeFinance #AccountsReceivable #Factoring #Banking #SmallBusiness #Entrepreneurship #SupplyChainFinance #Investment #MidsizeBusiness #InternationalExpansion #ExportFinance #EasternEurope #SoftLanding #CEETC #GlobalTrade #EconomicGrowth #BusinessFunding
