importer or buyer located in the foreign market

selling and marketing methods

The simplest form of export organization.
Easiest to establish.
Consist of an export sales manager with some
clerical help.
Primary job of the sales manager is to do the actual
selling or directing of selling.
All functions connected with export transactions

appropriate domestic department.

units and in carrying out technical functions.

Built-in form is best suited for direct export for the
manufacturer who operating under any of the
following conditions:
Small in size;
New or relatively new to export marketing;
Expected foreign sales volume is moderate to
small;
Management philosophy not oriented toward;
growth of foreign business;
Company resources are limited.
As overseas business increases, separate export
department may be established to take care of it.
 Essentially self-sufficient unit and well equipped
to handle export activities (advertising, logistics,
etc.).
 In other words - complete export marketing
department.
 Structured internally upon the basic of functions,
geographic region, product, or a combination of
these.

Characteristics of separate export department:

international and domestic sides of the firm
regarding the time to be spent by domestic
marketing personnel on foreign business matters.
Export operations can be conducted on a full-time
basis by personnel knowledgeable and trained;
specifically committed to exporting.
Has a fairly high degree of flexibility in terms of
where it is located.

Business practices


Functions: selling activities, customer relations,
information gathering.

users.
Traveling export salesperson:
 A person who lives in one country, often the home
country of the employer, and travels abroad to perform
the sales duties.
Resident sales person:
 A person who is sent out of the home country to
live and work in a foreign market.

Basic functions of traveling sales personnel:
(i) Communication of product information to
customers, and obtaining orders.
(ii) Customer relations: maintaining and improving

A distributor is a customer of the manufacturer,
who purchases the goods and earns their profit
through a profit margin when it’s resold.
An agent is a representative of the manufacturer
who earns commission for finding foreign
purchasers of the manufacturers goods.
Unfortunately, terms are often used interchanged.
In direct exporting, use of exclusive agents or
distributors is easiest and least costly; also has
potential for development.
Conditions required the uses of
distributors/agents:
 Little knowledge of foreign market;
 Do not wish to make greater investments; not
sure the product will be successful or not;
 Do not have personnel capable of being a
traveling salesperson;
 Order small in quantities or size.
 More importantly, the uses of
distributor/agent is less risks and less costs.
