About this title

Review:

Students and teachers will welcome this addition to the literature. It is an ideal text for undergraduates, being both rigorous and practical.Philip Kotler, J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management, Northwestern University, USA. This book provides a truly comprehensive and well-organised approach to global marketing. Its logical decision sequence provides an invaluable aid to both students and practitioners. This book will become a must. Peter Lorange, President of IMD (International Institute for Management Development), Lausanne, Switzerland. Hollensen's approach and presentation appears fresh, clear and appealing to the target audience.I.C.M. van Kooten, Vrije University, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

From the Back Cover:

Comprehensive and extremely readable, Global Marketing: a decision-oriented approach provides an analytic decision-oriented framework to help students and practitioners alike to develop and implement successful global marketing programmes. After reading this book, you will feel confident in analyzing, selecting and evaluating the appropriate conceptual frameworks with which to approach the five main management decisions of the global marketing process - 1) whether to internationalize;  2) deciding which markets to enter;  3) determing how to enter the foreign market;  4) designing the global marketing programme;  and 5) implementing and coordinating the global marketing programme.
