Handy Tips For Doing Business In USA

Business culture in the USA is similar to that of Australia, but there are also a few differences to bear in mind. Here are some tips to get you started:

– Like Australia, the USA operates with a federal system. State laws vary significantly which may affect trading
– Americans may use the English language differently from Australians. It’s usually best to avoid using humor in business meetings just in case it’s misunderstood
– Many Americans take religion very seriously, with Christians representing around 75% of the population
– The 2020 Covid-19 pandemic has impacted trading between the USA and other countries – please get in touch with TSL to find out the latest developments
– After 9/11 the US tightened all security procedures for cargo which means paperwork needs to be 100% accurate in every case – TSL is here to assist you with this!
