For business owners looking to expand internationally or are having trouble with their shipping services?

Does anyone do their research? USPS, UPS, & DHL are not the only international shipping companies out there. And it's sad to see so many of my favorite stores either canceling their international services or not offering international shipping at all b/c of customs issues and over-priced contracts. They are losing so much capital because these shipping money mongers want to rip through their clients' pockets! I finally found a company that does it all... it's not just shipping that they offer but anything that can be tailored to suit the client's needs. Now, if only everyone would just jump on the gold bandwagon and we can seriously boost the economy!!!!! How many of you business owners have had issues trying to go global?
