Mexico → United States → International Markets

Mexican capability, made easier to choose internationally.

We help capable Mexican companies become easier for international buyers to find, understand, verify, evaluate, and engage.

For established companies that can already deliver, but whose capabilities are not yet sufficiently clear, visible, or verifiable to an international buyer.

03The six-dimension GFG framework

We evaluate the commercial infrastructure supporting each stage of the buyer's decision.

Each dimension is scored separately, showing where the opportunity is lost before any conversation.

01

Positioning

Do they understand what you do and why it matters to them?

02

International Presence

Does the company read as credible outside Mexico?

03

Proof and Credibility

Can they verify you without asking?

04

Discoverability

Can they find you at the moment of evaluation?

05

Buyer Conversion

Is engaging you low-friction and low-risk?

06

Commercial Follow-Up

Does an inquiry survive the first week?

07Leadership

Founder-led advisory.

The people who evaluate your company are accountable for the work.

Anthony Bodnar Jr., CEO & Co-Founder, GFG Advisory

Anthony Bodnar Jr.

CEO & Co-Founder

Anthony leads diagnosis and international positioning at GFG Advisory: how a Mexican company's offer is defined, and how a foreign buyer actually reads it when they cannot visit, cannot ask, and are comparing several suppliers at once.

He is directly accountable for the commercial reading of every case — what the organization claims, what can be verified, and what is lost between the two. The same discipline applies in the Mexico → United States corridor and inside the international document operation of Global Felicity Group, LLC, where the work is exposed to real international demand.

  • Commercial readiness diagnosis across the six framework dimensions.
  • Definition of the core commercial proposition and its translation into buyer language.
  • Evidence architecture: what must be verifiable, and in what order.
  • Final review of every deliverable before it reaches the client.

Richard Shewmaker

COO & Co-Founder

Richard leads execution and client experience: making sure what was diagnosed is actually installed, running, and owned by a named person inside the client organization.

His responsibility is that implementation does not depend on GFG Advisory permanently. He runs the same discipline in the international document operation of Global Felicity Group, LLC, where the process has to hold up against requests arriving from dozens of countries.

  • Implementation of the international commercial interface and the inquiry path.
  • Intake and follow-up systems: what happens after a buyer writes.
  • Operational handover to the client team, with a designated internal owner.
  • Continuity of published work and verification of what is claimed publicly.
