Contents

Marketing is an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating, and delivering value to customers. International or global marketing is extending these processes to “foreign” markets. International marketing has become a major area of expertise for managers since the business world has become more global and companies in Western countries are facing increased competition and pressure in their “home” markets.

This course covers the core issues companies face when entering international markets and how data-driven decision-making can help to resolve these issues.

Typical questions which will be answered in this module include (but are not limited to):

  • How do I set the price in foreign markets? How can I measure the willingness to pay?
  • How can I measure brand value or brand equity in foreign markets?
  • How do I optimise product development in foreign markets?
