I would say it would be better to stay more regional until you are fully engaged in business, and very comfortable with shipping.
For the USA, Canada &/or Mexico might not be too difficult as far as shipping regulations and costs go, since they border us. They are still international borders, though, so check out the procedures thoroughly before you begin to include shipping to them. Canada would be the easier of the two, I think.
After a full year, see how things are going, reach out to Canada/Mexico if you have not already, get your feet wet. Expand slowly, like maybe South America. These are all land-connected countries, so the shipping might be more reasonable.
For people in Europe or African countries, I would say the same thing... stay more regional at first, then reach out further. Same thing, actually, for all areas.
Good luck to all ECAs in SFI!:))...
