Introduction
A cornerstone of a global marketing mix program is the set of product policy decisions that multinational companies (MNCs) constantly need to formulate.
The range of product policy questions may include: What new products should be developed for what
markets? What products should be added, removed, or
modified for the product line in each of the countries in which the company operates?
What brand names should be used? How should the product be packaged and serviced?

3. Multinational Diffusion
Example: Microsoft’s Xbox videogame
The Adoption of new products is driven by three types of factors: Individual Differences Personal Influences Product Characteristics
1. Relative advantage2. Compatibility3. Complexity4. Trialability5. Observability

3. Multinational Diffusion
Other country characteristics used to predict new product penetration patterns include: Homogeneous population Lead countries Lag countries Cosmopolitanism Mobility Labor force profile, Developing vs.
Developed countries

3. Multinational Diffusion
Time to “Take off”- Most new products display a distinct period
of time to takeoff- Varies a great deal across product
categories, between countries, previous takeoff experience

Test marketing May be skipped to save money Lead markets can be used as projections
(Exhibit 10-4)
Timing of Entry (Exhibit 10-5) Waterfall—staged rollout beginning with home
country Sprinkler—global rollout simultaneously
Often used for high tech goods

5. Truly Global Product Development
Scores of companies have research centers spread across the world. Challenge is to establish a truly global innovation process that transcends local clusters (i.e., to become a metanational innovator).
To harvest the benefits of metanational innovation: Prospecting- find valuable new pockets of
knowledge around the world. Assessing- decide on an optimal footprint
(number and dispersion of knowledge sources).

5. Truly Global Product Development
Mobilizing: To harness the benefits of global innovation, companies must find ways to mobilize pockets of knowledge (e.g., technical blueprints, patents, equipment, market knowledge).
The optimal strategy for mobilizing knowledge depends on the type (simple vs. complex) and nature (technical vs. market) of the knowledge involved.

5. Truly Global Product Development 4 possible strategic scenarios for mobilizing
knowledge: Exchange information (arm’s length, digital
transfer is sufficient). Move information about the market where the
technology is. Move information about the technology to
where the market knowledge is Move knowledge by rotating people and by
temporary co-location(See Exhibit 10-7.)
