Export Sales Representatives often travel to different countries, where they must know how to properly engage with the local cultures and customs. They must navigate language barriers, manage time zone differences for meetings, and adhere to international regulations, all while hitting sales targets in foreign markets. 

Sometimes the financial stakes are high and there can be a lot of pressure from employers for sales reps to close deals. Meanwhile, irregular work hours can cause hardships for workers with families, making it tough to maintain a balanced work-life equilibrium. In addition, the frequent travel routine requires workers to adapt to diverse climates and manage health risks, as well. 

Exports are a major part of our economy, with America’s top exports including items such as machinery (including computers), aircraft, vehicles, electrical equipment, medical apparatus, pharmaceuticals, precious metals, cereals, oil seeds, meat, and cotton, among others.

These days companies in virtually every industry are selling to global customers. Even small businesses can tap into worldwide markets, especially thanks to the convenience of online shopping. 

Many exporters are striving to ensure that international workers are being treated better, requiring fair standards and practices as part of any trade agreements. Some deals, like the USMCA in North America, make trading simpler and help local economies. However, any international trade comes with its share of supporters and critics. 

Salespersons in general often love to talk, share ideas, and collaborate with others to get things done. Export Sales Reps may have been keen to travel and curious about other countries and cultures. They might have also had an independent streak, wanting to find a job where they had some freedom and were entrusted to work without being micromanaged.
