International Marketing and Export Management

New opportunities and challenges are arising in global marketing and exporting.  Opportunities are expanding as international trade continues to grow rapidly, and e-commerce enables even the smallest businesses to find potential customers and means of distribution across the globe. Challenges are resulting from increased competition, disruptions in trade flows caused by military actions, anxiety over terrorism and global warming, and health hazards.  The effects of business activity on all sectors of society, and particularly on the environment, are highly scrutinised, whilst factors including ethics, social responsibility, public policy, and company responses are an essential concern.

 

International Marketing and Export Management focuses on the marketing decisions and management processes involved in developing export and other types of international marketing operations.  The key procedural aspects and activities required in exporting, which the manager must know, are covered. Alongside an emphasis on exporting as a marketing activity, all other modes of foreign market entry are also covered thoroughly.
