Exporting is essential
to the health of the U.S.
economy. Exports support over 11 million jobs in the United
States, which pay 15% more than the U.S.
average, and international sales have contributed to nearly 30%
of domestic economic growth in recent years. But this success is
not limited to large corporations; the number of American businesses
sending their goods and services overseas has tripled since 1990,
with a full two thirds of that boom coming from companies with fewer
than 20 employees. It's become a necessity for any business to export,
and those that don't are 9% more likely to fail in any given year
than comparable firms that do.
