Through our Costa Rican Corporation, Courtney's become an expert in the hospitality industry. Here's her philosophy on being successful in international business in her own words.
"I learned on the fly about the hospitality industry and its super competitive cut-throat marketing style. I've had to sharpen my elbows even further (from working in lobbying and social services!) while navigating an odyssey of complicated laws, unscrupulous behavior, and deceptive tactics. Thank goodness for the relationships and special experts I've come to know and call, "my friends." Without this network of people I'd have failed a long time ago. What I learned was this: the challenges of doing international commerce without establishing a foothold in the local community will destroy a business."
These are some of the great corporations Courtney Marchesani has partnered with, including non-profits she's supported over the last decade.
