US Company Selling Products & Services Overseas?
Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I have a software product that could either be hosted as a SaaS or sold per copy as a B2B sale.
I've been approached by an Irish company looking to either license my product. I've been trying to figure out the mechanics of a US company trying to sell into Ireland specifically but more generally globally.
Is this something I should worry about or just go forth?
Does anyone have any resources they could share about how to navigate this process?

First - congrats on the recognition of your product.
In regards to how to go about it - I'd suggest to get familiar with Digital Rights Management in general and selling software online in particular. There is a lot of resources on the internet, here are a few:

You may consider using a platform to sell - they will take care of all "legalize" (of course, you will pay some fee for that, which will reduce your income). Take a look here: https://sell-saas.com/resell-digital-products
If you prefer to do it yourself - consider hiring a DRM attorney; I know many IH'ers may cringe at that suggestion, but you need a professional to examine your contract, right?
Best of luck!
