Market Entry Strategy (Pemasaran Internasional)
Summary
TLDRIn this video, Vanessa Gaffar delves into various market entry strategies for international businesses. She explores three main approaches: licensing, investment (foreign direct investment), and strategic alliances. Licensing offers low investment but limited control, while franchising adds another layer of business expansion. Investment strategies, including joint ventures and acquisitions, provide more control but come with higher risks. Finally, strategic alliances allow companies to pool resources and access new markets while maintaining independence. Each strategy has its benefits and challenges, with the choice depending on risk appetite, capital availability, and desired market control.
Takeaways
- π Licensing involves a contract where a company allows another to use its assets (e.g., patents, trademarks) in exchange for royalties or fees.
- π Licensing provides the benefit of additional profitability with a low initial investment, bypassing export quotas and tariffs.
- π A major drawback of licensing is the limited control over the licensee's activities, which could lead to the exploitation of the company's resources.
- π Joint Ventures (JV) involve sharing ownership of a new business entity in a foreign market, with risks and rewards shared between partners.
- π Joint Ventures can help companies learn about new market environments and provide opportunities for synergies between partners.
- π A disadvantage of Joint Ventures is the requirement for significant investment and potential conflicts between partners over strategy or performance.
- π Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) allows companies to own or partially own operations in foreign markets, bypassing barriers like tariffs or quotas.
- π FDI provides companies with control over their operations and facilitates the transfer of technology and manufacturing expertise.
- π Strategic Alliances involve partnerships where companies collaborate to achieve long-term shared objectives while maintaining their independence.
- π The main advantage of Strategic Alliances is the pooling of resources for specific projects, helping to fill gaps in expertise or resources.
- π A disadvantage of Strategic Alliances is the sharing of control, which can lead to conflicts, and the risk of strengthening competitors through collaboration.
