Abstract: | Country segmentation has been proposed to assist in international marketing strategy decisions. Such schemes typically consist of grouping/clustering a set of countries on the basis of a wide array of macro-economic variables. The authors analyse the extent to which countries belonging to the same/different grouping reveal similar/dissimilar diffusion patterns. They find that country segments formed on the basis of diffusion patterns often differ by product. Finally, they discuss some managerial implications and directions for future research. |
