Officials encourage firms to focus on exporting

Businesses that aren't considering exporting their goods or services are turning their backs on 75 percent of the world's purchasing power and 95 percent of its population.
Utahns who have something to sell overseas can take advantage of a variety of free services offered by the U.S. Commercial Services, officials said Wednesday during the seventh annual Rural Business Conference, which attracted more than 500 people.
Last year, the U.S. Commercial Service helped 12,000 U.S. businesses - most of them small- or medium-sized - export goods and services worth $12 billion.
