Doing business in Canada, the 10 rules nobody writes down
Canadian business culture is not hostile to newcomers, it is just quiet about its own rules. This guide sets out the ten that cost people the most money: why “that’s interesting” is usually a no, why silence is not rejection, why small talk is the qualification round, and why you should never accept the first quote you are given.
Around 1,500 words. Includes a straight-answers section on English, timelines and where to get free help.
Why these are free
Most of what is written about entering the Canadian market is either a government page that explains the paperwork and none of the behaviour, or a gated PDF that wants your email before it tells you anything. I have spent twenty years on the Canadian side of these conversations, and the things that actually derail a newcomer are rarely the forms.
If a guide saves you one bad quote or one dead follow-up, it has already done its job. If you want someone in the room for the rest of it, that is what the consulting is for.

Fifteen minutes is usually enough to tell you whether your plan for Canada is sound, and where it is going to cost you. No charge for that conversation.
