KEY MOTIVATORS TO INTERNATIONAL MARKETING

• Reactive stimuli:– adverse domestic market

conditions– opportunity to reduce

inventories– availability of production

capacity– favourable currency

movements – opportunity to increase

the number of country markets and reduce market related risk

– unsolicited orders from overseas customers

• Proactive stimuli:– attractive profit/growth opportunities– ability to easily modify products for

export markets– public policy programmes for export

promotion– foreign country regulations– possession of unique products– economies from additional orders

• Managerial elements:– presence of export minded manager– opportunity to better utilise

management talent and skills – management belief in value of

exporting

SUSTAINING AND DEVELOPING THE NICHE

• The firm must:– have good information

about the segment needs– have clear understanding

of the important segmentation criteria

– understand the value of the product niche to the targeted segment

– provide high levels of service

– carry out small scale innovations

– seek cost efficiency in the supply chain

– maintain a separate focus

• E.g. by being content to remain relatively small

– concentrate on profit rather than market share

– evaluate and apply appropriate market entry and marketing mix strategies to build market share in each country they wish to become involved in.

– to compete with MNE’s

• Growing demand for specialised / customised products– technology permits economical low scale production

• Communication technology advances– Allowing management across borders

• Quick response time, increased flexibility and adaptability• Accessibility of knowledge, tools and assistance

– E.g. funding, joint research programmes, technology transfer

• Growth of international partnerships

SUPPLY CHAIN INTERNATIONALISATIONMNE OUTSOURCING

• Reasons for outsourcing– reducing capital requirements of

business– Managing difficulty of developing

quickly– improving flexibility– firms reluctant to take risks in

non-core areas– economies of scale of suppliers– expertise of business support

service providers– downsizing may leave

management resources stretched and unfocused

• Disadvantages– loss of know-how– costs of managing

outsourced supplies

OUTSOURCING FOR SMES

• Advantages – opportunities for

learning from MNE– security through

reliable and predictable ordering

– able to focus on production and technical issues

• Disadvantages– need for dependence on

one/two major customers– internationalisation driven

by demands of MNE– continual pressure to

improve product and operations

– weakening of external marketing

REASONS FOR FAILURE

• Failure to effectively scan the international environment

• Over dependence on one product

• Ease with which larger, more powerful competitors or a number of smaller local competitors can copy the idea

• Failure to respond to worldwide changes in customer needs

• Failure to plan financial resources

• Failure to plan for fluctuation in currency values

• Failure to manage and resource both market and operations expansion

• Prohibitive cost of enforcing patents and trademarks in foreign courts which may favour local firms
