<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">DEFRA can offer support such as access to food and drink trade shows, in-store promotions, a chance to exhibit at trade shows and reduced fees on eCommerce marketplaces.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">These exports will be conducted under </span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://ec.europa.eu/trade/policy/countries-and-regions/countries/australia/">EU-Australia Partnership Framework of October 2008</a>. This aims, apart from cooperation on the multilateral trade system and trade in services and investment issues, to facilitate trade in industrial products between the EU and Australia by reducing technical barriers, including conformity assessment procedures.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><b>So even before an FTA the UK needs to replace existing EU-Australia/New Zealand agreements to ensure existing trade flows as at present.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>As for <a href="http://ec.europa.eu/trade/policy/countries-and-regions/countries/new-zealand/">New Zealand</a> see below. Again even without an FTA, the EU supports UK food and drink exports to New Zealand in many ways.</b></span><br />

Since 1999 the EU and New Zealand have a bilateral agreement for mutual recognition that aims to facilitate trade in industrial products between the EU and New Zealand by reducing technical barriers, including assessment procedures.

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">It has hardly made the press at all, but here is my analysis. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Overall, although the exporting is great campaign got some bad press for exporting jam. The reality is that there is a lot of practical help that Government Departments like DEFRA can offer to any UK business in the food and drink sector that wants to export.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This can be export finance, reduced rates on large eCommerce exchanges or participation in trade missions and events.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This document lays out a funded plan for the next four years, so taxpayers money is being spent on this to support UK food and drink exports. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Although some of this timescale may include BREXIT, this is not really covered as a risk or opportunity that much in this plan in my view.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Key Targets</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So these are to create additional sales, in £M, over the next five years, to these nine markets. These are the target markets for food and drink exports.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, the EU is still a major market with France and Germany alone targetted for additional sales of £742m. The Anglosphere (Australia,New Zealand, Canada and the USA) £872m. If you include Asia as China, India Japan that is a combined £939m.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">To be 100% clear these are for <b><i>additional sales to current, not total</i></b>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Search Engine Optimisation for Fashion and Retail eCommerce - Free Course

Unknown 0 9:00:00 AM

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you are new to Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) which basically makes sure that your website is found by users searching on Google, then this is a great free video course.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the challenges, especially for new fashion sites, is duplicate content. So if a manufacturer creates a product description and you then use that <a href="http://ecommerceretailtechnology.blogspot.com/2016/04/ecommerce-challenge-of-writing-winning.html">product description</a> on your website, then Google will rank your content as duplicate and of less importance and therefore is less likely to display it to consumers searching for this.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are some technical aspects of SEO, but before you get into that, this video course will help you understand the business elements, why its so important to customers finding your website and you making sales.</span><br />

Your technology partner should be adding sales channels like Facebook Messenger

Unknown 0 8:00:00 AM

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you want so sell online, one of the first questions you are going to have to ask yourself is, do I want to develop my own technology from scratch, or do I want to choose a technology partner.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Developing everything yourself takes time and capital investment, but the biggest disadvantage of developing your solutions is that you will never keep up with a technology platform like <a href="http://1.shopifytrack.com/aff_c?offer_id=2&aff_id=7765">Shopify</a>.</span></div>

<div>
<a href="http://1.shopifytrack.com/aff_c?offer_id=2&aff_id=7765" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Shopify</a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> not only has a selling platform for in-store iPad, website, Facebook etc, but it also has its own app store where different partners can integrate services into your online shop. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So if you have made the sale on your Facebook </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-decoration: underline;">Shopify</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> store you can now use Messenger for customer service purposes.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you type an item like "Sports Coat" one section of Google as below will display sponsored section with images of sports coats with prices. So users can click on a link and go direct to the merchant. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-size: 14px;">Right now, my absolute favorite source of traffic for online merchants is Google Shopping (aka Product Listing Ads or PLAs). Google Shopping ads are displayed when a user searches for a product in Google. They appear</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-size: 14px;"> along the top of or often in the upper right hand side of a search results page (see below). Shopping ads can also be found by clicking the “shopping” tab. What we really care about is the 1-8 shopping ads that appear on the Google search results page (see below) - that’s where the magic happens.  </span></span><br />
