The challenge for today's manager is to identify and seize the opportunities most appropriate to their company. The text examines the main issues facing companies that want to compete successfully in the global marketplace. It combines coverage of the relevant theories with a practical approach to the issues. The book is divided into several sections covering: assessing a potential market economically, culturally and politically; identifying cultural similarities and differences; deciding which products to market internationally and how to price and promote them; motivating marketing managers to compete globally; building and implementing successful marketing strategies - from making strategic decisions and choosing market positions and entry methods to developing a marketing plan.
