Brief Notes on International Trade Management - export policies
Dr. S. Koner,
MBA Professor
When establishing your export pricë, begin by taking into account your customers' perception of value, what differentiates your product from that of your competitors and the role price will play in sales volume and profit.
'Made in America' is still a high-powered statement. And the low value of the U.S. dollar means that our goods are currently so cheap, we have an even greater competitive edge.
The decision to adapt a product is based in part on the degree of commitment to the foreign market.
Local product market scanning, competitive product sampling and evaluation are also needed to determine the appropriate level of warranties in country markets where the products are being exported.
There's another side to the owner-distributor relationship that causes many exporters to urge caution. Distributors frequently demand exclusive market rights to your product while reserving the right to service your competitors, warns an article in World Trade magazine. Don't expect commitment.
The great complaint of most exporters is distributors who are poised to hop aboard the fastest train and move whatever product is currently hot
However, the savviest exporters manage to make the relationship work.
When an LC amendment is made, the beneficiary has the right to either accept or reject the amendment in its entirety. However, nowhere is it stipulated just how long the beneficiary has to make this decision.
Doing business in foreign markets can be very different from doing business here at home, so don't be afraid to ask for help.
To make purchases of mass marketed consumer products more affordable in lesser developed country, makers of products such as razor blades, cigarettes, chewing gum, ball point pens and candy bars have been known to have repackaged them in small single units rather than multiple units prevalent in the developed and more advanced economies.
Keep in mind most letters of credit are irrevocable, meaning that no change can be made to the LC without the agreement of all parties.
Because of the warming of relations with the West, the Vietnamese market is opening up. Many of the Vietnamese living here have strong links with family and friends still living in their native country. The same is true of the Hispanic population. Owners of small businesses should be looking at an Hispanic workforce as a strategic opportunity.
By providing an unnecessary warranty, the enterprise may raise the cost of the product higher than the competitors' costs. When considering this point, exporters should calculate the cost of servicing the warranties and adapt the warranty service so that it is in sync with local usage conditions and Customer expectations.
The buyer, not knowing that an assignment of proceeds has been issued, may be thrilled at the prospect of not having to pay their bank an examination fee under the LC and embrace the open account proposal.
Sell the standard products you make for your country market in as many foreign markets as will accept them. Adapt your standard products to meet foreign market needs more closely. Adapt your products to meet both foreign and domestic market criteria at the same time, i.e. create a universal [global] product.
Michael Gura, a Russian living in Orange County, California, is the founder of Ortex, an international trading enterprise, Gura exports stereos, personal computers, cars and other Western goods to his native country. His business has become so successful that he now employs 250 people in nine offices around the world. And Gura is not one of a few isolated examples of immigrants in the international trade field.
