How to cross the culture shock

When we begin to do business with foreigners,how to cross the culture shock.If you have any experience about that,would you mind sharing to us.

what a big problems you have... does your business partner want to sleep with you, or what, is he eating something different than you at the dinner? You are not going to spend whole life with foreign person, you are just making business with them so you should stand his presence for few days a year. BTW what is, in your opinion so shocking in foreigners?'|'o'BHHz.tD
I don't see any problems when contacting with Asian people, besides very often they are hard to understand in conversation, better go with e-mails...

Just treat your foreign customers as your friends; don't worry too much about culture difference;communicate more with your customers.

i did international trade work for 3months,only send mail with the foreigner,i don't know what to say without business,just talk about our products,heh :lol

learn more about their culture

learn more about their culture if you like and also you have time at the same time.Generally,it is not a big problem in foreign trading business.
