Project Examples

Before entering your organization into the international landscape, it is important to have an understanding of how to successfully market your product/service. MBA level student-consultants in groups of 5-6 will spend 20+ hours conducting preliminary research and analysis to develop a marketing report detailing a plan for your organization to go global.

Some areas that these students can help you to understand include but are not limited to:

  • How to reach your target market in the country of choice
  • Most effective marketing techniques for the area of choice
  • Analysis of the effectiveness of entering the market of choice.
  • Generate an approach for identifying and analyzing the key cultural and environmental characteristics of any nation or global region

The expectation is that the students would execute all the required marketing functions (for example: market research, market analysis, promotion, pricing, and distribution recommendations). A global marketing strategy can help your organization improve product/service effectiveness, provide a strong competitive edge, or heighten customer awareness.

Take this opportunity to analyze how you could benefit from expanding internationally.
