Helping Korean businesses work smarter in the global market.

Smart Business

Success in international business requires working smart with overseas customers and suppliers, working smarter than your competition. That’s where SBF Consulting helps, assisting Korean companies to work smarter in global business.

Services

SBF Consulting assists Korean companies through consulting in:

  • English messages, emails, and proposals
  • Presentations in English
  • Website review and validation for international audiences

English Communication

Expert assistance for:

  • Messages, emails, and proposals
  • Presentation preparation and rehearsal
  • Website review and validation

English Messages, Emails, and Proposals

Written communication must say exactly what you intend, clearly and naturally, for people in international audiences. Automated translations from Korean to English often sound unnatural or unclear.

SBF Consulting helps you create:

  • Messages – Clear, concise texts for WhatsApp, Telegram, KakaoTalk, etc.
  • Emails – Reviewed and edited for maximum clarity and impact
  • Proposals – Collaboratively developed using extensive international proposal experience to communicate your ideas clearly and persuasively

Presentation

Global audiences expect professional, culturally appropriate presentations and the presenter to be fully prepared. A mistake in your presentation could jeopardize an entire project.

SBF Consulting assists with:

  • Presentation Creation – Carefully adapting Korean presentations to meet international business expectations, with up-to-date global presentation trends
  • Presentation Delivery – Rehearsing presentations with you, providing expert feedback and video analysis to boost your confidence and success

Website review and validation

Your website is your company’s global face. How easily visitors find it, how fast it loads, how intuitive it feels, and how understandable its information is – all impact whether visitors become customers.

SBF Consulting can help with:

  • Search engine optimization – Optimizing your site for global search engines (Google, Bing) to increase visibility
  • Usability – Verifying:
    1. Logical site organization
    2. Cross-browser and cross-device compatibility
    3. Fast loading speeds
    4. Accessibility for impaired users
  • Understandability – Ensuring content is clear for English-speaking visitors

Web accessibility

Websites should be usable by people with disabilities (e.g., limited vision, mobility, or hearing). Accessibility is not only socially responsible but also a potential competitive advantage, as many global companies employ people with disabilities.

Color Contrast Checker

An important part of making a site accessible is ensuring there is good contrast between the text and background, as it affects how easy the text is to read. Contrast is also important for presentations.

SBF’s free, online color contrast tool evaluates the contrast between two colors and rates the contrast as good, okay, or bad.
