14Market Factors
- Single European market within the EU
- Tariff barriers and custom duties were scrapped
and good and labor were to move freely between
countries. - Product Standards were harmonized
- Border controls were abolished and a common
European passport was created - Commercial Vehicles needed a single loading
document for shipments across Europe. In the past
each country had it own documents and standards.
15Market Factors
- National price controls where eliminated ,
helping to create a large and unified market with
competitive prices. - A single currency , the Euro was introduced in
1999 making payments easier and equalizing
prices( even though not all countries joined the
currency system). - EU is a single market with upward of 450 million
consumers the biggest mature market in the world. - ( though not all members countries are
really in a mature stage yet.)
16Market Segmentation
- European Wide segments were identifies and
targeted. - Pan- European product designs and marketing
communications were created to achieve the same
synergistic positioning in all countries. - Before the integration the European market it had
been up to the marketing manager of each country
subsidiary to develop a segmentation scheme for
the customers in that country. - One researcher identified six basic segments The
clusters of countries form large markets by
themselves making it possible to gain many scale
advantages without necessarily operating across
the whole EU region.
17Product Positioning
- Three Strategic Options
- 1.Market Retreat-
- Sell out to pan-European player example, Nabisco)
- Seek a different less competitive market example
Nokia Dtra)
18Product Positioning
- 2. Pan-European Competition-
- Identify true pan-European market segments
(example Perrier) - Organic penetration from existing national
markets (example Pilkington) - Aggressive policy of acquisitions to complete
European portfolio9example BSN) - Cooperation with other national player to form
pan-European organization9example Carnaud-Metal
box) or alliances (example European Retailers
Association)
19Product Positioning
- 3. Niche Position
- Consolidate national position through
realignment, merger or acquisition - (example Mannesmann-VDO)
- Identify new Euro-regions
- Identify segments across limited number of
countries (example Campbell Biscuits) - Seek economies at component level while retaining
niche brands9example Electrolux) - Become an OEM supplier to pan-European companies.
20Market Tactics
- Product Policies-
- Euro Brand is common and are becoming Global.
- Brand Names may vary in language differences the
product itself may bi identical across countries. - Packaged goods in Europe feature packaging in at
least four languages ( English ,French, German,
Spanish.) - European Brands design products with a more
European Feel like slimmer and thinner designs,
colors and features that are not available for
there other products.
21Market Tactics
- Pricing-
- European pricing can be complicated issue as the
single Euro currency is introduced and companies
have to set a common Euro price throughout the
region. - Price differentials on the same product and brand
in different countries are being minimized to
avoid inducing customers to buy in neighboring
countries . - Long standing practices are not easily changed
especially since in many protected local markets
the high prices have made some products cash cows
for the distributor.
22Market Tactics
- Distribution-
- Sales networks , retail, and wholesale
distribution is gradually being transformed from
locally based smaller units to large integrated
organizations resembling those common in North
America. - The new large units have help to facilitate the
introduction of pan-European strategies among
manufactures. - Saving that have been created through large
centralized negotiations between the manufacturer
and a large distribution chain are well known in
the American marketplace but are relatively new
to Europe
23Market Tactics
- Promotion-
- A Striking Development is the increasing use of
pan-European TV advertising , and taking
advantage of the satellite beamed across
previously closed borders. - As public ownership of TV broadcasting lessens
and commercial airtime is made available , even
in previously protected countries .They are
exposed to the dame mass media messages as the
rest of the EU. - Languages differences are overcome by limiting
copy to voice over's , making it possible to
quickly adapt a given commercial to broadcasting
in a different language.
24Competition
- New rules meant that national subsidiaries had to
be given stronger central direction to gain
projected savings from eliminating unnecessarily
costly national differences in product design,
brand names and promotions. - Smaller European companies and even large firms
the threat from these foreign entrants has been
met by the creation of larger and stronger
companies. - At the corporate level there seems to be one
strategic response pssisble get bigger and go
pan-European
25Foreign Trade Agreements
- The EU has taken over the role as the primary
trade negotiation entity for tits members
countries. - The EU undertakes trade negotiations and dispute
resolution with other regional groupings, often
under the World Trade Organization (WTO)
umbrella. - The EU also takes the lead in conflict resolution
with other trade regions . - The EU will continue to be an important player in
the worlds trade negotiations.

27Economic
- Overall real economic growth was good
- 1960s averaging 10
- 1970s averaging 5
- 1980s averaging 4
- 1990s averaging 1.7 (slowdown)
- Growth slowed in 1990s due to- effects of
overinvestment and an asset price bubble during
late 80s that required an extended period of time
for firms to reduce excess debt, capital, and
labor. - GDP (purchasing power parity)- 4.22 trillion
(2006 est.)
28Economic cont.
- GDP (official exchange rate)- 4.911 trillion
(2006 est.) - GDP per capita- 33,100 (2006 est.)

31Market Factors cont.
- Geographic location- Eastern Asia, island chain
between the North pacific Ocean and the Sea of
Japan, east of the Korean Peninsula - Area comparative slightly smaller than
California - Climate varies from tropical in south to cool
temperature in north
32Market Segmentation
- Japanese consumers the most spoiled buyers in the
world - Japanese becoming more similar to Westerners in
leisure and shopping behavior - For each product segment
- 1. Upscale segments
- 2. Middle-of-the-roaders who buy tried and true
- 3. Those buying on price- looking for cheaper
imports and private labels - Japanese open to discounted prices in addition to
quality, service, and up-to-date technology
33Product Positioning
- Japanese are now learning to make trade-offs
between the brand and the latest features and the
price - value conscious- Japanese dont necessarily
demand the very latest (although exceptions in
some product categories) - However, there is not compromise with quality
when consumers trade off features and prices
34Marketing Tactics
- Product Policies- Western quality levels are a
concern to Japanese consumers - Signs of poor product in packaging- variations in
label position, blemishes in the wrapping,
unappealing color combinations - Japanese attention to detail in all forms of
shopping - Pricing- Price sensitivity has increased
- Lower-priced imports in discount outlets, strong
interbrand price competition - Lower prices do not always mean lower quality
35Marketing Tactics cont.
- Distribution- Japanese system features several
layers of small, specialized units, each handling
small quantities of products - In 1988 wholesale-to-retail ratio in Japan 4 to
1 in US 2 to 1 - Difficult for newcomers to break into a
distribution channel because of the Japanese
preference of establishing relationships with
middlemen and dealing with same people - Japanese retailers have an understanding with
domestic manufacturers not to stock competing
products - American cigarettes
- European beer
- Western PCs
- Creating a new distribution channel is expensive
36Marketing Tactics cont.
- Promotion- Japanese advertising unfocused and
nonsensical - Advertising is an art form not sales tool- little
need for advertising to provide information - Consumers spend more time contemplating purchases
than people in the West - Mundane packaged goods- shift to unique selling
proposition - Due to economic difficulties the buyer needs
reasons for purchasing and focus on low prices - Need to offer smaller packages, fewer units, and
faster restocking of supplies due to lack of
storage
37Foreign Trade Agreement
- Reluctance to engage in trade agreements due to
countrys relative isolation (geographically and
culturally) - Tariff trade protection is dismantled
- Combination of high incomes, high productivity
workers, state-of-the-art technology, successful
exporting - Eased control over foreign capital investments
- Eager to attract foreign products
- Diminished need for protection
38Competition
- Intrabrand price competition suppressed- meaning
a particular brand and model will cost the same
in all stores in Japan - THEN Interbrand competition is strong- companies
compete in terms of product innovation, quality,
and service - Formation of quality circles and total quality
management (TQM) - Consumers choices were based on design, brand
image, and other intangibles - NOW after economic slowdown in 1990s, discount
stores and category killers entered in suburban
locations - Deregulation, elimination of certain trade
barriers allow foreign firms to enter - New emphasis on price and value by consumers
39North America
40Political System

1982, which transferred formal control over the
constitution from Britain to Canada, and added a
Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms as well

except in Quebec, where civil law system based on
French law prevails accepts compulsory ICJ

75Market Factors
- A new industrialized, free market economy that
can compete globally - Dynamic growth has boosted real incomes,
broadened and deepened the technological
capabilities of the industrial sector, and
contained inflationary pressures. - Per capita income has risen for eight consecutive
years - Consumer and government spending have driven
growth in recent year - Exports picked up in 2006 after struggling for
several years - Thus far the economy has been resilient, and the
Labor Government promises that expenditures on
health, education, and pensions will increase
proportionately to output
76Market Segmentation
- Typical Consumer Markets
- Careful targeting and segmentation become
important - Breaking away from British beginnings
- Still have some college sports
- Soccer is has not taken a particular liking

- Queenslanders are compared to Texans
77Market Segmentation cont
- Young people ready for global markets
- Typical in mature markets
- While older generations are nostalgic for the way
it was
78Product Positioning
- Protectionism
- Relatively recent history of protectionism
- Global products and brands are appreciated in the
area - Pro-Home-Country Bias
- In some cases many formed because of social and
cultural habits - Allegiances vanished when low barriers introduced
competitive foreign products
79Marketing TacticsProduct Policies
- Appeal
- Most global products and services only need a
slight adaptation to be accepted in these
martkets - Toyota Camry
- Technology
- Markets are very up-to-date
- Mobile phones
- 2003, penetrated 15 million or 3/4ths of the
country - May have the highest penetration rate in the word
80Marketing TacticsPricing
- Relatively high prices
- Because of the distance, market size, labor
costs, make it inneficient - Tariff rates
- Have dropped considerably since 1988
- Local regulation of business still keeping some
prices high - Booksellers
81Marketing TacticsDistribution
- Efficient distribution
- Because of clustered societies
- Coastlines and metropolitans
- Distribution is modern and up-to-date
- Many companies use Australia as their regional
Asian headquarters - b/c of access to well developed infrastructure
and telecommunications -
82Marketing TacticsPromotions
- Communications media
- Similar to the rest of the world
- Because of the distance and some gov. policies,
global communication is highly welcomed - Use it for globally integrated promotional
messages - Generation gap
- Younger citizens want an American approach to
media - Simpsons, Conan OBrien, CNN
- Older citizens would like a an older view
- British sitcoms and communications
83Competition
- Competition not as intense as other mature
markets - Due to limited size and geographical distance
- Companies often produce on location to avoid
tariff and trade barriers and offset costs - High wages even in comparison to Europe and the
US by 25 and 50 percent - This suggests as the trade barriers come down in
the future, import competition will increase
dramatically
84Foreign Trade Agreement
- 1973- UK joined the European Common Market,
eliminating Australia New Zealands preferred
trading status - Members of APEC (Asia-pacific Economic
Cooperation) and ARF (ASEAN Regional Forum) - For most global markets the two countries are one
regional market - Close trade ties with each other (ANZCERTA pact
Australia New Zealand Closer Economic Relations
Trade Agreement)
