What sets Turwitt, Nielen & Associates, P.A. apart from other Consultants?We have been actively engaged in global trade and international business development for over 30 years. Our team members actually travelled frequently to more than 130 countries to develop and to conduct business. They not just briefly visited those markets. Actually they stayed there for extended periods of time and in most cases returned frequently to deepen their knowledge. In addition we lived and worked for many years in various countries throughout the world.

We use a work methodology that has proven successful since many years. Consultants run the gamut from the large, “name brand” consulting companies (with corresponding prices) to the unemployed person who became a “consultant” until he/she finds his/her next job. In addition, there exist consultants who claim to be subject-matter experts in all areas and assert to be able to consult effectively on any range of given topics. In reality they don’t possess the expertise and have very limited practical know-how. We do not fall into these categories.

We are a highly specialized “boutique” advisory firm that is very focused. Our expertise is international business development. That’s what we are really good at, and our level of expertise in this specialty field is unique and very hard to find anywhere else. We add value to our clients by helping them take advantage of international business opportunities more effectively and efficiently than they would without engaging us.

Our longtime experience in more than 130 markets around the world has allowed us to acquire a unique level of know-how that opens up additional possibilities for our client’s projects. This advantage allows for faster development of tailor-made solutions that can give you a decisive competitive advantage.

What sets us apart and why we add significant Value

Our team members actually travelled frequently to more than 130 countries to develop and to conduct business. Besides North America they are very familiar with European, African, Asian, Australian, and Latin American markets.

Our deep and genuine experience, tailored approach, and integrated service offering differentiates us from others.

We apply hands-on strategic business development and innovative solutions to help our clients meet their international business objectives. Advanced processes and tools to support clients in achieving the highest possible success while minimizing the key risks at all stages. We possess capabilities that lead to faster implementation.

Genuine Global Know-How and de-facto Real-World Experience sets us apartWe help our clients make lasting improvements to their performance and realize their most important goals. Over many years, we’ve built skills and gathered know-how uniquely equipping us for this task.

There is a need for Real-World Experience & ExpertiseUniversities and executive training programs commonly teach "international business". Such studies, courses and seminars are valuable, but generally do not distinguish between how to perform business in Africa, how to penetrate European Union markets, selling to potential customers in Sao Paulo, Brazil, or marketing to buyers in Moscow, bundling all international business into one package. The majority of such studies focus on procedures, compliance, political systems, socio-demographics, and general intl. business practices.

While such education is surely positive and establishing a good basic understanding of international trade, those studies are absolutely no substitute for real-world experience, know-how and genuine hands-on expertise. More than often faculty never really worked in real-world executive functions. In addition, intl. trade consultation is provided by various organizations, universities, and government agencies. Those services are helpful to establish some very basic minimum requirements and understanding, but don’t provide specific know-how and actual sales & marketing expertise, and can’t substitute real-world global business know-how that can only be obtained through years of practical hands-on international sales & marketing experience.

There is a big difference between theory and practice. The absence of such real-world “boots-on-the-ground” know-how, and not utilizing expertise that is specific to actually penetrating a market with all necessary activities and details that must be observed, often results in companies using the trial and error method, a great recipe for failure.

That’s where we come in. Turwitt, Nielen & Associates, P.A. is closing the gap and filling the void. We provide the required and necessary expertise for clients willing to penetrate new markets.

There is no Substitute for Real-World Experience & ExpertiseAs Albert Einstein said “The only source of knowledge is experience”. The reality is, although it’s fantastic to have achieved a degree, one will need more than such degree to stand out, to be successful, and to navigate the rough seas of international business and global trade development. Experience is the key element to being successful. Knowledge and skills gathered during many years of practice are the prerequisites for making the right decisions, and to manage international business practices with successful outcome.

Our team of multi-cultural professionals has over 50 years of collective knowledge and expertise that gives us a unique advantage in providing professional services to companies across a broad range of industries. We know firsthand that there isn’t anything like hands-on entrepreneurial experience when it comes to successfully developing international business.
