Globalization of Markets?
• “A powerful force drives the world toward a converging
commonality, and that force is technology” (Levitt, 1983)
• “Converging commonality” may not have happened
universally
• Consumer product tastes may have converged less than
industrial product specifications
• Media, communications means have
– made consumers world-wide more aware of their mutual
preferences and
– contributed to creation of world brands
– caused certain market segments to emerge across national market
that have indeed converged--inter-market segments

Market Segmentation
• The process of identifying distinct groups of
consumers whose purchasing behavior differs
from other groups in important ways
– Demography, geography, social-cultural factors,
psychological factors

needs of different market segments
• Marketing mix variables:
–

–
Product (physical goods and/or services)
Price
place (distribution)

International Market Segmentation
• Across national markets, companies may
Offer the same products

to appeal to market segments with similar needs across
markets
– Market segments that transcend national borders -intermarket segments -- allow companies to offer
standardized products
Adapt their products
– and adapt the balance of the product mix to appeal to
market segments with differing needs across markets
– Market segments that have materially different needs

International Marketing Mix:
Product
•
Product: a bundle of attributes
–

Hamburger: meat type, taste, texture, size
Automobile: power, design, quality, performance,
comfort, size/capacity
Attributes need to be adapted to a greater or
lesser extent to satisfy
–

–
Consumer preferences/tastes due to culture
Economic development levels affect consumer
behavior
National product/technical standards mandated by
state

International Marketing Mix:
Pricing
• Price discrimination: demand elasticity
• Strategic pricing
– predatory (quick share-of-market focus):
• lower prices to drive competitors out, then raise prices
– Multipoint pricing:
• pricing in one market may have an impact in another market;
subsidize low pricing in one market from profits in another
–
experience curve:
•
–
use aggressive pricing to build volume and move firm down
experience curve (lower marginal costs)
Regulatory issues:
•
antidumping, monopoly restriction

Marketing Research Issues
• Functional Equivalence
– Similar observable phenomena/activities may have
different function across cultures
(shopping: Japan also a social event; US mostly a chore)
• Conceptual Equivalence
– Non-observable assumptions/concepts/ideas/constructs
may not have the same meaning across cultures
• Instrument Equivalence
– must use measures that correctly measure the same
phenomenon in each culture; language key
– measurement equivalence: “summer” in Australia vs
UK, “middle-aged” in Somalia (life expectancy 45 - 50
yrs) vs Scandinavia (life expectancy 80-85yrs)
– metric equivalence: weights and measures
