In today's environment business markets change fast. Traditional marketing means are difficult to adapt to the new market environment. The international market requires it should be adapted to by means of new marketing means namely international marketing. In brief, international marketing is the process of planning and conducting transactions across national borders to create exchange that satisfy the objectives of individuals and organizations. International marketing has forms ranging from export-import trade to licensing, joint ventures, wholly owned subsidiaries, turnkey operations and management contracts.

The largest single market in the world in terms of national income, the United States represents roughly 25 percent of the total world market for all products and services. Thus, U.S companies that wish to achieve maximum growth potential must “go global” because 75 percent of world market potential is outside their home country. Management at Coca-Cola clearly understands this; about 75 percent of the company's operating income and two-thirds of operating revenue is generated outside North America. Indeed, global marketing made Coke a worldwide success. The Coca-Cola Company focuses on the non-alcoholic beverage market, producing a range of drinks around the world. It is the world's leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages, primarily carbonated soft drinks. The company is active in more than 200 countries (Mintel, 2005), with the help of directly controlled subsidiaries, partnerships and franchising, thus making it a truly global company. The company sells over six million beverages every day in 2005. International marketing involves recognizing that people all over the world have different needs. Companies like Coca-Cola have brands that are recognized across the globe. While many of the products that these businesses sell are targeted at a global audience using a consistent marketing mix, it is also necessary to understand regional differences, hence the importance of international marketing
 

Non-U.S companies have an even greater motivation to seek market opportunities beyond their own borders; their opportunities include the 290 million people in the United States. Many companies have recognized the importance of conducting business activities outside the home country. For example, even though the dollar the dollar value of the home market for Japanese companies is the second largest in the world, the market outside Japan is 85 percent of the world potential for Japanese companies. For European countries, the picture is even more dramatic. Even though Germany is the largest single country market in Europe, 94 percent of the world market potential for German companies is outside Germany. Industries that were essentially national in scope only a few years ago are dominated today by a handful of global companies. In most industries, the companies that will survive and prosper in the twenty-first century will be global enterprise. The stakes of companies entering into a global market are much higher than those that choose to stay within their country's borders. Some companies that fail to formulate adequate responses to the challenges and opportunities of globalization will be absorbed by more dynamic, visionary enterprises. for example-will undergo wrenching transformed. There is a third, grimmer, scenario as well: some companies will simply disappear.
 

International marketing is important because the world become globalised. “Globalization” is one of the most popular issues in Business life and has already brought so many changes that influenced the development of international marketing. International marketing takes place all round us every day, has a major effect on our lives and offers new opportunities and challenges. International marketing is necessary because, from a national standpoint, economic isolationism has become impossible. Failure to participate in the global marketplace assures a nation of declining economic capability and its citizens of decrease in their standard of living. Successful international marketing, however, holds the promise of an improved quality of life, a better society, more efficient business transactions and, as some have stated.#p#分頁標題#e#
 

In the most recent decade for which statistics are available, 1996 to 2005, the World Trade Organization estimates that global exports nearly doubled, in increasing from US$5.4 trillion in 1996 to US$10.4 trillion in 2005. Such growth is unique, particularly since. Trade growth on a global level has usually outperformed the growth of domestic economies in the past few decades. As a result, all countries and many firms have found it highly desirable to participate in international marketing. World GDP grew 3.3 per cent in 2005 but exports surged 13.4 per cent. Admittedly much of this was due to the high price of oil, but both agricultural products up (up 8.1 per cent) and manufactures (9.9 per cent) grew much faster than GDP. The difference is not so marked for mature economies, which tend to have slower export growth (though often higher import growth) than their change in GDP. Taking 1995 as100, Australia's exports had risen to 137 in 2005, while its real GDP was up to 142. the respective index numbers for New Zealand, the UK and the US were 136:141, 148:31 and 140:133. However, when we look at the emerging economies of China and India we see exports as driver of rapid economic growth. China's GDP was up to 238. but its exports were at 562. India's GDP rose to 184 and its exports to 313. We can see from Spoken of earlier .How important is international marketing for organization
 

In the past centuries, business was conducted internationally but never before did it have the broad and simultaneous impact on nations, firms and individuals that it has today. The growth of global business activities offers increased opportunities. International activities can be crucial to a firm's survival and growth. By transferring knowledge around the globe, an international firm can build and strengthen its competitive position. Firms that heavily depend on long production runs can expend their activities far beyond their domestic markets and benefit from reaching many more customers. Market saturation can be avoided by lengthening or rejuvenating product life cycles in other countries. Production sites once were inflexible, but now plants can be shifted from on country to another and suppliers can be found on every continent. Cooperative agreements can be formed that enable all parties to bring their major strengths to the table and emerge with better products, services and ideas than they could produce on their own. In addition, research has found that multinational corporations face a lower risk of insolvency and pay higher wages than do domestic companies. At the same time, international marketing enables consumers all over the world to find greater varieties of products at lower prices and to improve their lifestyles and comfort.

There is having some tools which organizations can use to determine and select opportunities.
 

PEST (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological factors) is a famous and widely applied tool when considering the external nature of the domestic market. However, it is equally as useful when applied to the nature of the international marketing environment. International PEST Analysis would consider: How easy will it be to move from purely domestic to international marketing? Would your business benefit from inward foreign investment? What is the nature of competition within each individual market, and how will companies from other nations compete when you meet with them head-to-head in unfamiliar countries?Many other factors that is specific to your organization or industry.#p#分頁標題#e#

• Are technologies at different stages in the Product Life Cycle?
