Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 1.3, Hochschule Aschaffenburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: To show the complexity and diversity of international marketing, the term paper focuses on the development of a practical case of a German consumer product that is marketed to a foreign country. For this term paper, the (fictional) case of the P Brewery, which sells their wheat beer to Namibia, is developed. The term paper deals with the description of the means of competition (4Ps) to market P Brewery wheat beer to Namibia. A special attention is given to the cultural characteristics and environmental uncontrollable elements of Namibia and their consequences for the marketing activities, especially for the conception of the “4Ps”. Besides that, the market entry strategy of the P Brewery and the medium and long-term strategy of P Brewery is described more detailed. Due to the limited scope of the term paper, the focus will be on selected uncontrollable elements and cultural elements. It is also not intended to develop a complete international marketing concept for the P Brewery ; the focus will be on the most important aspects. International marketing operations are complex and diverse. The difference between domestic and international marketing does not lie in different concepts but rather in the environment within which the marketing plans must be implemented and realized. The basic principles of marketing still apply, but their applications, complexity, and intensity may vary substantially. The complexity of international marketing comes from the wide range of unfamiliar problems and the different internationals marketing strategies, which are necessary to overcome different levels of uncertainty in foreign markets. Competition, legal restraints, government controls, weather, fickle consumers and any number of other uncontrollable elements can, and frequently do, affect the profitable outcome of good and prepared marketing plans. The marketer cannot control or influence these uncontrollable elements, but instead must adjust or adapt to them in a manner consistent with a successful outcome. What makes marketing interesting is the challenge of shaping the controllable elements of marketing decisions (product, price, promotion and distribution) within the framework of the uncontrollable elements of the marketplace in a way that the marketing objectives are achieved.
