00:00:00.299 --> 00:00:02.125
Thinking about a new
export market?

2
00:00:02.347 --> 00:00:04.173
Start by asking what
the data actually

3
00:00:04.309 --> 00:00:05.803
measures. In the
government's

4
00:00:05.803 --> 00:00:06.968
TradeStat reports,

5
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:09.464
choose exports, your
confirmed H S code

6
00:00:09.472 --> 00:00:11.546
and a country. Then
compare matching

7
00:00:11.554 --> 00:00:13.551
reporting periods and
value units.

8
00:00:13.815 --> 00:00:16.026
Check the portal's note
about code and unit

9
00:00:16.034 --> 00:00:17.818
changes before
comparing years.

10
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:20.612
A large export total is a
research clue,

11
00:00:20.642 --> 00:00:22.161
not an order from a
customer.

12
00:00:22.330 --> 00:00:23.816
For a useful freight
discussion,

13
00:00:23.909 --> 00:00:26.056
add your origin,
destination,

14
00:00:26.213 --> 00:00:27.336
packed dimensions,

15
00:00:27.450 --> 00:00:29.640
gross weight and
cargo-ready date.

16
00:00:29.797 --> 00:00:31.930
World Cargo Logistics
can help turn that

17
00:00:31.930 --> 00:00:34.130
shipment brief into a
routing discussion.
