Amity Business School
Reasons for Global Marketing
• Growth – Access to new markets – Access to resources
• Survival– Against competitors with lower costs (due to
increased access to resources)

Amity Business School
Global Marketing Vs. Marketing
• Marketing is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of goods, ideas, and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational goals.
• Global marketing focuses on global market opportunities and threats.

Amity Business School
Globalization• Globalization is the inexorable integration of
markets, nation-states, and technologies to a degree never witnessed before - in a way that is enabling individuals, corporations, and nation-states to reach around the world farther, faster, deeper and cheaper than ever before, and in a way that is enabling the world to reach into individuals, corporations, and nation-states farther, faster, deeper, and cheaper than ever before.

What is a Global Industry?
• An industry is global to the extent that a company’s industry position in one country is interdependent with its industry position in another country
• Indicators of globalization:– Ratio of cross-border trade to total worldwide
production– Ratio of cross-border investment to total capital
investment– Proportion of industry revenue generated by
companies that compete in key world regions

Keys to Global Success
• Value creation
• Competitive advantage
• Focus
7
Amity Business School
Value Creation
• Value = Benefits/Price– Price is a function of money, time, and
effort– Benefits result from the product, promotion,
and distribution
• 2 methods of value creation• Improved benefits• Lower prices
8
Amity Business School
Competitive Advantage
• Success over competition in industry at value creation
• Achieved by integrating and leveraging operations on a worldwide scale

Amity Business School
Focus• Concentration and attention on core
business and competence– Nestle is focused: We are food and beverages.
We are not running bicycle shops. Even in food we are not in all fields. There are certain areas we do not touch…..We have no soft drinks because I have said we will either buy Coca-Cola or we leave it alone. This is focus.

Globalization or Global Localization?• Globalization
– Developing standardized products marketed worldwide with a standardized marketing mix
– Essence of mass marketing• Global localization
– Mixing standardization and customization in a way that minimizes costs while maximizing satisfaction
– Essence of segmentation– Think globally, act locally
11
Amity Business School
Where in the World?
• How does a company decide which markets to enter?– Company resources– Managerial mind-set– Nature of opportunities and threats in that
market
12

Examples of Global Marketers• Coca-Cola• Philip Morris• Daimler-Chrysler• McDonald’s• Toyota• Ford• Unilever• Gillette• IBM
• USA• USA• Germany• USA• Japan• USA• UK/ Netherlands• USA• USA

Why Go Global?
• For US-based companies, 75% of sales potential is outside the US.– About 90% of Coca-Cola’s operating
income is generated outside the US.
• For Japanese companies, 85% of potential is outside Japan.
• For German and EU companies, 94% of potential is outside Germany.

Management Orientations
• Ethnocentric
• Polycentric
• Regiocentric
• Geocentric
15
Amity Business School
Ethnocentric Orientation• Assumes home country is superior to the
rest of the world; associated with attitudes of national arrogance and supremacy
• Management focus is to do in host countries what is done in the home country– Sometimes called an international company– Products and processes used at home are used
abroad without adaptation
16
Amity Business School
Polycentric Orientation• Management operates under the
assumption that every country is different; the company develops country-specific strategies– Sometimes called a multinational company– Company operates differently in each host
country based on that situation
• Opposite of ethnocentrism
17
Amity Business School
Regiocentric Orientation
• Region becomes the relevant geographic unit (rather than by country)
• Management orientation is geared to developing an integrated regional strategy– European Union – NAFTA
18
Amity Business School
Geocentric Orientation
• Entire world is a potential market • Managerial goal is to develop integrated
world market strategies• Global companies serve world markets from
a single country and tend to retain association with a headquarters country
• Transnational companies serve global markets and acquire resources globally; blurring of national identity

Forces Affecting Global Integration
21
Amity Business School
Driving Forces• Regional economic agreements• Market needs and wants• Technology• Transportation and communication
improvements• Product development costs• Quality• World economic trends• Leverage
22
Amity Business School
Restraining Forces
• Management myopia
• Organizational culture
• National controls
23

International Trade Theory
• Classical trade theories:
– explain national economy conditions--country
advantages--that enable such exchange to happen
• New trade theories:
– explain links among natural country advantages,
government action, and industry characteristics that enable such exchange to happen
24
Amity Business School
Classical Country-Based Theories• Mercantilism (pre-16th century)– Takes an us-versus-them view of trade; othercountry’s gain is our country’s loss– Neo-mercantilism views persist today• Free Trade supporting theories– Show that specialization of production and freeflow of goods grow all trading partners’ economies– Absolute Advantage (Adam Smith, 1776)– Comparative Advantage (David Ricardo, 1817)• Free Trade refined– Factor-proportions (Heckscher-Ohlin, 1919)– International product life cycle (Ray Vernon, 1966)
25
Amity Business School
Mercantilism/Neomercantilism• Prevailed from 1500 to 1800– Export more to “strangers” than we import to amass
treasure, expand kingdom– Maximize exports and minimize imports: no
advantage in increased trade• Government intervenes to achieve a surplus in
exports – King, exporters, domestic producers: happy – Subjects: unhappy because domestic goods stay
expensive and of limited variety• Today neo-mercantilists=protectionists: some
segments of society shielded short term
26
Amity Business School
Absolute Advantage• Adam Smith: The Wealth of Nations, 1776
• Mercantilism weakens a country in the long run
and enriches only a few segments
• A country should specialize in and export products
for which it has absolute advantage; import others
• A country has absolute advantage when it is more productive than another country in producing a particular product
27
Amity Business School
Comparative Advantage• David Ricardo: Principals of Political
Economy, 1817
• Country should specialize in the production of those goods in which it is relatively more productive... even if it has absolute advantage in all goods it produces
• Absolute advantage is really a special case of comparative advantage
28
Amity Business School
Theory of Relative FactorEndowments (Heckscher-Ohlin)
• Factor endowments vary among countries• Products differ according to the types of factors that they need as inputs• A country has a comparative advantage in producing products that intensively use factors of production (resources) it has in abundance• Factors of production: labor, capital, land, human resources, technology
29
Amity Business School
Heckscher (1919)-Ohlin (1933) Theory• The pattern of international trade depends on differences
in factor endowments not on differences in productivity• Absolute amounts of factor endowments matter• Leontief paradox: – US has relatively more abundant capital yet imports
goods more capital intensive than those it exports – Explanation(?):• US has special advantage on producing new products
made with innovative technologies• These may be less capital intensive till they reach mass
production state
30
Amity Business School
International Product Life-Cycle (Vernon)• Most new products initially conceived and produced in the US in 20th
century• US firms kept production close to the market
• Aid decisions; minimize risk of new product introductions• Demand not based on price yet; low production cost not anissue
• Limited initial demand in other advanced countries• Exports more attractive than production there initially• With demand increase in advanced countries• Production follows there.• With demand expansion elsewhere• Product becomes standardized• production moves to low production cost areas• Product now imported to US and to advanced countries
31
Amity Business School
Classic Theory Limitations• Fundamentally: Free Trade expands the world “pie” forgoods/servicesTheory Limitations• Simple world (two countries, two products)• No transportation costs• No price differences in resources• Resources immobile across countries• Constant returns to scale• Each country has a fixed stock of resources and no
efficiency gains in resource use from trade• Full employment
32
Amity Business School
The New Trade Theory• In many industries, as output expands with specialization,
the ability to realize economies of scale increases and unit costs should decrease Because of such scale economies, world demand supports only a few firms in such industries (e.g., commercial aircraft, automobiles)
• Countries that had an early entrant to such an industry have an advantage in such an industry:
– Fist-mover advantage– Barrier to entry (Airbus overcame through governmentsubsidies?)
33
Amity Business School
New Trade Theory
• Global Strategic Rivalry
– Firms gain competitive advantage through:
intellectual property, R&D, economies of scale and scope, experience
• National Competitive Advantage (Porter,
1990)
34
Amity Business School
New Trade Theories
• Increasing returns of specialization due to
economies of scale (unit costs of prod. decrease)
• First mover advantages (economies of scale
such that barrier to entry crated for second or
third company)
• Luck... first mover may be simply lucky.
• Government intervention: strategic trade policy
35
Amity Business School
National Competitive Advantage(Porter, 1990)
• Factor endowments• land, labor, capital, workforce, infrastructure(some factors can be created...)• Demand conditions• Large, sophisticated domestic consumer base: offers aninnovation friendly environment and a testing ground• Related and supporting industries• Local suppliers cluster around producers and add to
innovation• Firm strategy, structure, rivalry, competition good, national
governments can create conditions which facilitate and nurture such conditions
