International Marketing

International Business Development

International internet and direct marketing growth outpaces the U.S. To quote Drayton Bird, former Ogilvy & Mather Chairman, Direct marketing and internet programs work overseas. The only difference is, they work better!

Profitable international expansion occurs in virtually every product or service category. Leverage your valuable brand worldwide. Even small and medium size U.S. firms enjoy higher profit margins and long term customer value outside the country.

After careful study and planning, consider three options:

• Multinational Approach. All marketing materials, search terms, email broadcasts and print ads direct prospects back to a U.S. based website, fax or phone number. or postal address.

• Local Appearance. With the use of proven and trusted local service suppliers, your firm can have a local language web site, local customer service, local currency but still hold and ship product from the United States.

• Local Expansion. Regardless of "going it alone" or using local service suppliers and vendors, or a combination of both, American products often sell at a premium outside the U.S.
