Forecasting
• Basic—share of overall market
• Build-up—share within segments
• Analogy to comparable country ahead in the
product life cycle
• Subjective methods (e.g., jury, export pooling,
Delphi)
• Time series and regression (require reliable
data!)

foreign buyers or
distributors
• “Piggy-backing”
(Complementary
Exporting)
– Two firms exchange
exporting services by
distributing the other’s
product abroad

– Higher unit cost to
consumer
– Likely lower market
share
– Limited learning on
country market

Export Tasks
• Transportation
– Negotiation
– Coordination between
modes and shippers
• Export licenses and
permissions
• Customs clearing
• Warehousing

ENTRY STRATEGIES
• Financing
– Quotes
– Point of transfer
(FOB)
– Credit
• Risk
assessment/letters
of credit
– Exchange rate risk
• Repatriation/ countertrade

Export Problems
• Price escalation
• Dumping regulations
• Finding local distribution
– Screening
– Negotiation
• After sales support
• Imitation by importer/failure to learn local market

Licensing and Franchising
• Advantages
– Low investment
– Limited direct
exposure
– Lower exit costs
– Rapid entry
– Possible reduction in
counterfeiting
MKTG769
ENTRY STRATEGIES
• Disadvantages
– Limited control
(contract =
enforceability!)
• Quality
• Promotion
• Image
– Difficulty in
terminating
relationship
Lars Perner, Instructor

Overseas Turnkey Projects
• Firm agrees to set up construction and/or
manufacturing project—promised to be in
operation form when completed
• Helps leverage investment made at home if
direct competition in the new market is unlikely
• Some risk in being able to “deliver”
– Maneuvering local government regulations
and local infrastructure

Contract Manufacturing
• Advantages
– Faster start
– Reduced investment
in manufacturing
– Ability to take
advantage of
established
manufacturer’s
experience and cost
structure (experience
curve)
MKTG769
ENTRY STRATEGIES
• Disadvantages
– “Training” of
competitor
– Still left with
marketing
responsibilities 
need country
presence
Lars Perner, Instructor

Management Contracts
• Opportunity for firm to profit on its technology and
“know-how” in a market where the firm does not
want to enter or face competition from contractee
• Minimal transfer of assets
• Must be able to operate in local infrastructure,
but contractee and/or government usually has a
strong interest in the success of the project

from scratch”
• Advantages
– Control
– Learning about
country market
– Leverage (may be
disadvantage,
though)
MKTG769
ENTRY STRATEGIES
• Disadvantages
– Large investment; risk
– Risk of
nationalization/
extortion
– May take longer to be
successful
Lars Perner, Instructor

Foreign Assembly/Mixing
• Motivations

– Local content requirement
– Duties/tariffs
– Locus of value addition for tax purposes
