Tiivistelmä: | This paper presents the result of an exploratory survey of the role of marketing in China from the perspective of foreign partners in 35 major Sino-foreign joint ventures. The result shows that China is already an integral part of the global market for many multinational companies, and in- creasingly has become a significant part of their corporate business portfolios. Western marketing techniques and con- cepts have widely been considered effective in China. Mul- tinational companies tend to standardize brand policy, pro- duct positioning, product lines and customer services and 'localize' their choice of distribution channel, promotion, and market segmentation. Managerial implications are discus- sed. |
