INTRODUCTION
International marketing can be defined as marketing is an internationally competitive environment, whether the market is home or foreign - Thomas L Friedman When there are no boundaries for a company and it targets customers overseas or in another country, it is said to be engaged in international marketing. If we go by the definition of
It is not the same thing as international trade. Only a part of international trade flows represents international marketing. Further, there is a category of international marketing which is not captured by international marketing statistics.
Marketing of goods and services across national frontiers The marketing operations of an organisation that sells and /or produces within a given country when That organisation is part of ,or organisation with an enterprise which also operates in a other countries. There is some degree of influence on or control of the organisations marketing activities from outside the country in which sells or produce.
The marketing strategies that are employed to attract and influence customers within the political boundaries of a country are known as Domestic marketing. When a company caters only to local markets, even though it may be competing against foreign companies operating within the country, it is said to be involved in domestic marketing.
International marketing
International marketing involve the targeting of consumers overseas. The strategies used in international marketing are often the same as in domestic marketing but the audience is larger. International marketing is used when companies want to concentrate on exporting goods and services to multiple countries rather than just the country of residence.
Debt Unstable countries Protection of intellectual rights Tariff regulations Instability in Foreign exchange markets Non tariff barriers, e.g.:- specification
Domestic marketing
International marketing has endless opportunities and scope. There is an added incentive of foreign currency that is important from the point of view of the home country as well. International marketing allows use and sharing of latest technologies. international marketing leads to improvement in political relations between countries and also increased level of cooperation as a result. In domestic marketing there are no barriers
The scope of domestic marketing is limited and will eventually dry up. The benefits in domestic marketing are less than in international marketing. Domestic marketing is limited in the use of technology Domestic marketing has nothing to do with political relations international marketing there are many barriers such as cross cultural differences, language, currency, traditions and customs.
Control Language Red tape Cash flow Logistics Lack of trained staff
Companies doing business across international borders face many of the same risks as would normally be evident in strictly domestic transactions. For example, Buyer insolvency (purchaser cannot pay); Non-acceptance (buyer rejects goods as different from the agreed upon specifications); Credit risk (allowing the buyer to take possession of goods prior to payment); Regulatory risk (e.g., a change in rules that prevents the transaction); Intervention (governmental action to prevent a transaction being completed); Political risk (change in leadership interfering with transactions or prices); and War, piracy and civil unrest or turmoil; Natural catastrophes, freak weather and other uncontrollable and unpredictable events,
In addition, international trade also faces the risk of unfavorable exchange rate movements (and, the potential benefit of favorable movements)
The degree to which the parent company influences the operations of its subsidiaries varies. Accordingly, top-level managers in companies that are expanding internationally tend to subscribe to one of the four basic orientation or philosophies ethnocentric , regiocentric and geocentric. Let us have an brief introduction towards the above points:-
Ethnocentric orientation
An ethnocentric orientation assume that practices that work at headquarters or in the home country will also work elsewhere. The firm which follows this approach follows the same pricing policy throughout the world. The firm need not put in e3ffort to collect information on these market conditions.
Geocentric orientation
An GEOCENTRIC ORIENTATION the firm analyses the needs of its customers worldwide and then adopts the best standardized operating practices for all the market it serves. This approach takes into consideration the price co-ordination necessary at headquarters to deal with international accounts and product arbitrage. This approach is the most practical of all because it takes into consideration both global competition and local rivalry in establishing prices.
Regiocentric orientation
An REGIOCENTRIC ORIENTATION favors the staffing of foreign operations on a regional basis. This approach might prove to be not so good, when the disparity in product prices from one region to another is higher than transportation costs and duties.
