Freelancer Hosting

The affordable way to enter the Korean market & your reliable representative on-site

You do not require a complete subsidiary including a furnished office and a full team if you just want to explore the Korean market or improve existing relationships before making any significant investments. In such cases a single qualified specialist on-site is typically sufficient to take the first steps in Korea. Nowak & Partner recruits this reliable representative of your company while providing you with the necessary infrastructure at the same time, so you do not have to worry about anything and can stay focused on your business objectives.

Your goals

• You discovered the high potential of the Korean market for your business and are focused on market expansion, but you are concerned about the investment cost of having your own office in Korea.
• You intend to strengthen your local presence and therefore need suitable and qualified local personnel to exclusively represent your business and promote your products in Korea.
• You are looking for a cost-effective solution to explore the Korean market and build initial distribution channels or improve existing customer relationships on-site.
• You have sold products to Korea and need to ensure on-site service.

Our service

We provide a proven solution for taking the first steps in Korea, thereby minimizing the costs and laying a solid foundation for a permanent market presence in the future.

Together with our clients, we have developed a concept called “Freelancer Hosting”. As part of our HR recruitment service we search for a qualified local specialist who will represent your company while being hired by Nowak & Partner.

Unlike a sales agent, the freelancer is focused 100% on your business objective. He or she works exclusively for you and at the same time is fully supported by our company structure and administrative processes.

Solution

By hiring a freelancer as the liaison between your headquarters and your Korean subsidiary, your engagement with the local market can be done in a very cost-effective manner. Your freelancer in Korea can be responsible for a variety of activities, such as sales, key account management and distribution management as well as monitoring suppliers and technical projects.

This concept has proven to be particularly effective as a market entry setup and can be easily transformed into your own subsidiary later on — for even stronger market engagement and higher growth for your business.

The only condition for this solution is that no direct sales of products may take place via Nowak & Partner.

Sales must be arranged exclusively through the freelancer between the headquarters and the end customer or with the help of one or more Korean retailers. If necessary, however, at least the import of sample products via Nowak & Partner may be possible after consulting with us.
