About RainForest Marketing Associates

Business Summary
Rain Forest is not a distributor or reseller. There are three dimensions to our operation.

1. The first is Market Representation. This is a comprehensive service for companies looking to startup or grow their business operations in the Asia Pacific region. Here, RainForest can:

  • Become your area sales management to develop and drive initial sales interest.
  • Open your local branch office and begin the startup operation.
  • Develop and drive channel partners.

2. The second is Sales and Marketing. Here RainForest provides a raft of services associated with supporting your operation at a simpler level, such as:

  • Technical writing and more - talk to us about your specific needs.

3. And lastly, RainForest provides Business Assistance Services. This is a 'business troubleshooting' service and is offered to companies looking to solve internal problems with their operation. Many years of experience working inside companies, from MNCs to startups have given us a keen eye for identifying and solving management and operational problems. Our service can be as simple as talking over a few problems with your management, or looking at more complex 'change management' issues.
