ineAssignment Two: AMB336 Internet International Marketing
Students are to present a research report on the implications of Internet technology in the international marketing of the firm. More specifically, the impact of the Internet on international marketing performance indicators such as sales from international customers has become clear (Mathews, Healy and Wickramasekera 2011). International marketing managers must be aware of this changing environment and the impact on marketing activities in international markets such as “the consumer experience”. Students are to draw upon the literature to highlight key areas where change is altering the international marketing activities and performance of the firm, as per the scenario and context below.
Criteria reference assessment (CRA) is available through Blackboard.
Scenario: A well-established (1975) Domestic Australian Beach Wear Company (Australia Beach clothing co.), recently received some sales orders from international clients in the UK. The international marketing manager believes the Internet will enhance the firm’s ability to generate profits, but is unsure how. Can you help analyse and evaluate how the Internet might assist the firm in the international marketing activities of their swim wear in the UK (United Kingdom)?
