10. International Product Strategies
Standardization Vs Adaption
Basic marketing concepts tell us that we will
sell more of a product if we aim to meet the
needs of our target market. In international
markets, we have to take into consideration
consumer’s cultural background, buying
habits, levels of personal disposable income
etc in order to deliver a tailored marketing mix
program to suit their needs.
11. • In today’s global world, where consumers
travel more, watch satellite television,
communicate and shop internationally over
the internet, the world now is becoming a lot
smaller. Because of this there is no need to
adapt products to local markets.
• Brands such as Coca-Cola, MTV, Nike, Levis are
all successful global brands where they have a
standardized approach to their marketing mix,
all these products are targeted at similar
groups globally.
12. • In many circumstances a company will have to adapt
their product and marketing mix strategy to meet
local needs and wants that cannot be changed.
• McDonald is a global player however, their burgers
are adapted to local needs. In India where a cow is a
sacred animal their burgers are served with chicken or
fish.
• Coca-cola is some parts of the world taste sweeter
then in others. Yes we can argue that standardization
is better for the organization because it reduces cost,
however many organizations will have to ‘think
global, but act local’ if they are to successfully
establish them selves in foreign markets.
16. Global Strategy
Global strategy involves consistent strategy for
each country which includes:
• Integrating & coordinating the company's
strategic moves worldwide.
• Selling in many if not all nations where there
is significant buyer demand.
17. Cont..
