Our story
Exportgrant
In 2015, we started Deljoo Inc. in Toronto.
We provided web application development, web design, and digital marketing services to our customers in various industries, from manufacturing to financial services and construction.
Also, we worked on developing a B2B matching-making app to connect the service/product providers to international sales reps. During that time, we had a chance to understand some of our customers' needs and challenges to increase their sales by scaling to global markets.
Whether their business is a first-time exporter or has exported in the past, they had the same challenges:
- How can they gather accurate market information to approach their target audiences and test the new target market faster?
- How can they de-risk the waste of time and money if the new target market for their products and services failed?
With our experiences in IT, Digital marketing, and international business development, we could help our customers move from traditional export marketing to more digital solutions. That saved their time and resources and helped them make the best decisions for entering the new market. Moreover, we helped them to reduce their financial risks and save money for marketing and business development for the new market.
Value
WHAT WE DO
We helped to apply for a government grant and secured the budget to cover 75% of their marketing costs to the new market.
It was a winning situation for our customers as Canadian exporters and taxpayers. We have 100% rates of returning customers. Our customers benefited from knowledgeable marketing and technology team besides them who cares for their brand and reputation.
Plus, they were not worried about the cost of having such a dedicated expert team. They could spend enough time focusing on providing high-quality products/services for their customers' satisfaction and make better decisions on scaling their businesses to international markets.
