                             Conclusion

                                 Thus, it can be concluded that the benefits of international marketing
                             are considerable. Trade moderates inflation and improves both employment
                             and standard of living, while providing a better understanding of the marketing
                             process at home and abroad. For many  companies, survival or the ability
                             to diversify depends on the growth, sales and profits from abroad. The
                             more commitment a company makes to overseas markets in terms of
                             personnel, sales and  resources, the  more  likely  it will  become  a

                                   Discuss critically: “In one sense international marketing does
                                   not differ from domestic marketing. It involves the same basic
                                   marketing tools,  concepts techniques  and know  how.

                                   are characterized by complex environment differences and

                                   Explain as to how international marketing is different from
                                   domestic marketing.                        [MBA(FT) 2006]

                                 One way to understand the concept of international marketing is to
                             examine how international marketing differs from domestic marketing.
                             Domestic marketing  is  concerned  with marketing practices  within a
                             researcher's  or marketer's home country.  From  the perspective of
                             domestic marketing, marketing methods used outside the home market
