The Strategy of International Business (With Real World Examples) | International Business

[@ebarron11]

As a business student I really enjoyed watching this video I had no idea of how many strategies go into international business. What I really liked was that the instructor used real companies as examples. That really helped me understand everything better.

[@karlajaime2095]

This video taught me about different international business strategies. The real-world examples show how different methods can lead to success in various markets. It's important for any business wanting to grow internationally to understand these strategies.

[@haelynstraub4996]

This video taught me about the pressures international businesses go through and the four different strategies a business uses internationally. I did not realize there was more than one strategy for international businesses. As a marketing student, this is important for me to comprehend because I will need to know which strategy is best for which type of business I will be working for.

[@amberstern2820]

I really liked how you included real-world examples to help students better understand this topic. I had no idea that so many strategies can go into international business!

[@candacecreech4112]

Strategy is very specific to the success of an international business, so this video was very helpful for me to be able to see how certain strategies make or break the growth of a company. It was helpful for me to see examples of specific companies and countries and how they conduct business and marketing.

[@pattyhasbell8527]

As I was watching this video I never realized by going global or international there are a lot of questions to be asked and answered. Besides just the normal business questions and opinions on who, what and where is a lot information to be compiled to decided what market you are looking towards, who is your shopper and how you want to distribute it. Thank you for your thoroughness on the subject.

[@ChristieHale-us3wf]

The most interesting part of this video for me is how cultural differences affect international business strategies. It was also informative regarding the pressures that international businesses face in order to stay competitive in their market.

[@lanehutchinson4761]

As a student of this class, I enjoyed watching the video of the strategy of international business, and I learned a lot from it. I never knew how much the United States was involved in international business on an every day basis.

[@kelanmckay2019]

Just watching the video you can see how hard it is to have a successful international business. This is also a great introduction to the different types of strategies used in international business.

[@allistevenson6430]

I never really looked into the reasonings or the strategy behind business and where they conduct their manufacturing but this video really enlightened me on how crucial that choice can be when deciding

[@Jgwwth]

Prior to this video, I knew nothing about international business strategies. The breakdown and examples were very informative.

[@maitlynmorman4076]

International business is such a complex and overwhelming thing to understand. I love how this video gives real world examples because it helped me understand the strategies of international business, which is something I have never thought about before!

[@mrodriguez3]

International business can be successful if you know what you're doing. It's interesting to see how much a business must go through in order to become successful in a different land.

[@lukeyoder5979]

I never realized there were so many different kinds of strategies that you can use within international business. Given the real world examples in the video I managed to have learned a lot. Just reading pages off of a page sometimes does not stick with me, but given the examples I feel as if i can really grasp and understand the concept of strategies used during international business.

[@CalebHopkins-q1m]

As a marketing major, I found this video to be very interesting. I have always been intrigued in strategy in general so when it comes to strategic moves in the business world it is very interesting.

[@morgan.2000]

There are so many different strategies in international business that I didn't know about. Having the real world examples of things was nice and helped me learn better.

[@destinyparker6724]

The two by two matrix was the best way to summarize how pressures for multi-national corporation’s work .

[@Amelia_Strout]

I loved how in this video you gave real world examples of international business. When I watched this video I didn't know much about strategies' that go into international business so it was worth the 15 min video to learn how it works. You make it easy and simple to understand. I have learned what cost reduction and pressure to be responsive.

[@ninjaofMc]

After watching this video I understand that there are many different ways to compete as an International Business. Whether a business does a Global Standardization Strategy, a localization strategy, or another strategy depends heavily on the industry and many other factors. Deciding an international strategy can positively or negatively effect an industry in many ways.

[@oulingom1445]

So glad I found this channel I'm reviewing for my International Business final exam and these videos are so helpful!

[@jaishabashir2174]

This video was educational because it explains the components of strategy it takes to be successful in international businesses. Since I am a business major and do want to work internationally one day, watching and learning from this will hopefully help me in my business future. It taught the different types a pressures one may encounter and gave examples of different strategies to be successful. Each strategy works in it's own way to be useful globally and I enjoyed learning from this video.

[@kamryn90000]

Before watching this video I had no idea about strategies of international business. This video really helps to get a better understanding of that. Businesses can keep up with an ever changing society that we live in. I think it is interesting to see what companies we know using these strategies.

[@gonzalofernandezgil3038]

After watching the video, I have a better understanding of the 4 different strategies and the situation that each of them is the right one to use. The 2 by 2 matrix is something i will have very close to me if one day I work for a multinational.

[@jojohntv2157]

This video shows just how much companies have to adapt for different markets. A good example is the food that we eat. McDonald’s in India and other Asian countries may have curry while US has our typical American cuisine.

[@bradyjohnson4549]

When it comes to international business, there are many aspects that need to be evaluated when entering a new country such as governements, regulations, and different culture. That is where international business strategy comes into play. This video really helped explain what goes into that and some of the different concepts.

[@bethrobinson7945]

I can honestly say I knew very little about strategies of international business before watching this video, but now I am intrigued by some of these methods. My favorite part about the video is the real world examples given with every strategy. I like knowing that Caterpillar achieved a transnational strategy successfully which the video says is very difficult to do. I have a newfound respect for all of the companies listed in this video.

[@jonyoung8462]

I like how this video put a label to the two pressures that companies face. Of course companies want to reduce costs to improve profit and to be locally responsive to sell more. I found the chart depicting the four strategies and whether the different pressures were high or low on deciding what strategy to use very important.

[@baylorbattles5776]

This video was very eye opening for me because it showed how much more goes into business strategy than I thought. Especially when it comes to international business and trying to work out how to blend cultures of employees and customers for the good of the company. I think this video displayed the pressures of creating a good business strategy very well.

[@GrizzLee2]

It is very eye openening to see just how many different ways there are to do business across the world. Not only is there multiple ways, they all have a chance to be highly successful in different ways. This allows for companies to continuously change and go around what is happening in the real world.

[@mattynugget24]

So ayun na nga andito po ko kasi may assignment kami at ipapasa yun sa monday hayssss naku

[@simonlee4309]

Thanks Dr.Yang, very insightful and easily understandable content for me as an undergraduate!

[@leslievazquez9348]

I enjoyed the real-world examples because it allows students, like myself, to see how things work. I do not have previous knowledge of international business but this video allowed me to learn about what it takes to strategically succeed in international business.

[@joshuaplunkett4888]

This video really informed me about the different strategies of international business. It covered a lot of bases and helped me understand how the different strategies of international business play into how a business reacts on a smaller scale.

[@hannahbowman4065]

After watching this video, I realized that there are so many moving parts in the business world that I was very unaware of. There are so many different strategies and outcomes that go on. I also thought is was very interesting that some companies can just be characterized into a strategy that really does not suit them when looking on paper. This just shows that there are so many moving parts in all these different industries that can result in so many different outcomes.

[@gracenesbit4861]

The main pressure that was explained in this video that I found interesting was the pressure for cost reduction. In the global markets we see many examples of international businesses being affected by these different pressures in the market. An example I liked from this explanation was a manufactuer mass-producing a standardized product at the best location somewhere in the world. This goes into how a firm could choose to outsource the product for its low cost benefits in order to reduce costs.

[@jameschapa4120]

This video does a great job in teaching the differences between the different strategies in international business. depending on the type of company and what country you are expanding to, determines the type of strategy you will use.

[@isabellewandres6915]

International business has always interested me, and this video helped my understand the different types of strategies out there. I did robotics all throughout high school and even met with some of the top executives from Texas Instruments. It was interesting to learn that Texas Instruments uses a global standardization strategy. This makes sense because their products serve universal needs.

[@cheyenelemley9913]

This video was very informative on the different strategies that you can find in international business. I was aware that there were different methods but was not very informed on what they are or how they work. This broke it down and explained it very well.

[@vvanesaviveros]

This video is very informative. Before watching the video I had no idea that there are several different business strategies. I like how there are real life business strategies.

[@brock-johnson]

I loved this video! It reminded me of the time I was in England and we went to McDonalds. After eating English food for two weeks I wanted just a bacon cheeseburger from McDonalds. When I ordered my food I noticed that the menu was different from the one back in the United States. I got my cheeseburger and I noticed that the bacon was not what I would call Bacon at all. It was actually what the English call Rashers. Which is essentially a slice of bacon that looks more like ham. It was interesting to see how McDonald's had catered to the environment that it was in to become more profitable.

[@alexandroramirez232]

I wasn’t not aware of the the different strategies businesses applied to different countries. This video gave great insight on that topic.

[@kpleasant876]

It was very fascinating learning the different strategies for international business. It helps to understand these by the real-world examples given.

[@mindy_miller]

The video gave me a great understanding of the strategies that go behind international business. I was unfamiliar with international topics so I have enjoyed getting to learn about different businesses that do business internationally.

[@cristianrodriguez4089]

I find this video very interesting and helped me gain a better concept of international business. The real world examples that were provided with the strategies helped me understand and compare easier.

[@mayleamalloy7950]

I really enjoyed this video because it included real-world examples. Doing that, allowed me to understand the strategy of international business better as something more than just the concept. The examples put a better perspective on what it takes to be successful in the international business industry.

[@madelinepippin3540]

I really enjoyed this video. I like how in depth the video goes and gives multiple examples to help understand the strategies taken by individual business to help them succeed internationally.

[@lillianspeicher]

International business has a lot of aspects that I have yet to realize. Also, many multinational companies have become very successful not only in the US but also outside of it, which is interesting to me.

[@NikkiCunningham-yj1lv]

I found this video very interesting and informative, I did not realize there were so many different strategies in international business. What I found to be most interesting was the pressures of cost reduction. I did not know this is one of the reasons that companies would outsource their labor. I was always puzzled about why a company would take away jobs from people already working in the company. However, after watching this video I understand how outsourcing labor can help reduce company costs.

[@PrincessIsrael903]

This video is good starting out in learning strategy to business that is international. It gives good examples with pictures. It gives a good insight with learning business.

[@malekalhawi6032]

Mass Production in an optimal location to reduce costs are not an easy feature, it is very easy to think that producing products in another country will benefit greatly but in reality, there are many factors to it besides the wage of workers. Exporting and Importing goods for me were huge factors in this discussion I had with some friends. So many factors and pressures are dealt with when it comes to this and its nice to hear the different strategies companies can take to respond to such questions.

[@mads4829]

Learning about the varying strategies that are utilized in international business was super beneficial. Now, when I look at different companies and their products, I find myself deciding which strategy they use. Also, outsourcing is a key factor to many large companies, and now I have a better understanding of why.

[@marthamwende3246]

This video is really interesting! It is really enjoyablle to hear how different international businesses operate. Getting to know the types of competitive pressures.

[@jayceevanhorn6291]

I really like how this video went into depth while describing the strategies of international business. I had no previous education about the competitive pressures that firms who are competing in the global marketplace are facing. I really appreciated the charts included within the video. This is a great video to watch if you have no prior knowledge of the topic.

[@jackberry8674]

This video did a great job explaining the ins and outs of international business. I like how there were a real world examples were used to explain. I think it is important to have a great understanding of international business, because of how much business in conducted overseas.

[@joaquinbianchi4137]

This video really helped me to understand that there is multiple strategies and concepts in international business that I had never even thought about before. It is always nice to keep learning!

[@workingjane9454]

This video was very interesting to watch and learn about the different ways that businesses compete internationally!

[@brianshine6151]

The distinctions between the various international business strategies are effectively explained in this video. The kind of strategy you will employ depends on the kind of business you are running and the country you are entering.

[@katelynballard1683]

I thought that the pressures for local responsiveness was very interesting. These videos are so helpful.

[@jonathanmccowin6495]

I liked this video, especially the discussion on reducing costs. At my current part-time job, this became an important factor contributing to how we carried products moving forward into the new year.

[@corinneshields6509]

This video was really helpful for me in understanding all the types of different international business strategy. The real world examples were interesting!

[@kristencwilson10]

I enjoyed the examples used in this video, I am interested in having a career in international business and I feel as if this video clearly stated the strategies and gave me a good idea of what I could be doing in my future career.

[@gisellerico2520]

I like how this video implements real-world problems. It helped me grasp the information even more. It also goes to show how the information in this course will apply to situations outside of the classroom. It helps to know about the pressures that companies face so that one day when we are working for or own a company we won't be blindsided why them. We will at least have some understanding of it now.

[@priyapatel3795]

In this video I was able to understand that there was multiple strategies in international business. Before this video I was only familiar with global standardization strategy so I found it neat to learn about the other strategies. I also find it interesting how certain company’s fall into a strategy that I did not think it would apply to them.

[@brendolynoconnor241]

I never quite realized how many different international business strategies there were! I have only really seen localization utilized in daily life so it was very interesting to learn about all four strategies. It really helps to put into perspective how intricate it can be to plan an international business.

[@jeremyhenry1836]

I found it very interesting in how different business are handled internationally. I learned a great deal when learning about the four strategies.

[@yazmincortez1996]

Great video!!! I enjoyed all the different examples used to describe all the different strategies.

[@markaylaspivey9561]

This video was very descriptive and made clear points on how international business works

[@brandonburke2177]

I thought it was interesting how it explained the different types of pressures that businesses must consider when strategizing. There are a lot of moving parts with specific needs, costs, etc. which can make that process more difficult. I thought the chart that it showed was very interesting where it categorized the 4 major strategies as high or low pressure of cost reduction and high or low pressure of local responsiveness. It also gave real-life examples and explained why it would or wouldn't make sense for a company to use this strategy. I now have a better understanding of the different pressures companies must consider when trying to pick the best strategy.

[@lisarobinson2690]

The examples given about the different strategies were good and had great examples of the real world strategies around the world.

[@valerieholmes980]

This video was so informative about the differences in business strategies. Fully understanding how a business keeps and maintains profit and production is quite complicated. This video put things into perspective for me.

[@explorerofthedeep]

The real examples helped my understanding very much

[@jacksonmahomes3567]

I didn't know there were different strategies for international business and it was interesting to see how different companies take different approaches but can still be very successful. I also like to see that some of the biggest corporations are those that have international business and are not just represented in one company. Globalization and International Businesses can bring so much more profit and value to a company which can be great for shareholders. It will be interesting to see how many more companies go international with the rise and availability of the internet that makes this process more available to all companies.

[@jordangochenourhitting]

This video is really good at showing the different strategies that companies can use to gain an advantage. I liked seeing the different kinds of pressures that can force a company to use one of these strategies.

[@jacobburkhalter5793]

The video was very informative. I like how they explained the different pressures companies face and the different strategies that they have to use to approach these pressures.

[@zoeybella234]

Excellent Summary and examples. Thank you Xx

[@yanellybarrera181]

This video was very informative and it allowed me to grasp a better understanding of this concept. The video taught the concept in an interesting way by using real world examples to teach the concepts of this lesson.

[@edwardmiler8003]

I love the real world examples for this video! Really made me more interested in international business.

[@gerardoramirez4942]

this video is a really good tool. i love how they presented situations and examples in order to have a better understand of the concept. ihave learned the two types of competitive pressure and the importance of those concepts in the economy. i also learned new concepts that helped me to understand some of the material of the chapter.

[@jamessawyer2133]

It was interesting learning about the different kinds of pressures that a firm may face. The two competitive pressures being, the pressures for cost reductions and the pressures to be locally responsive. Each example given added to my depth of understanding of these types of pressures.

[@chandlerbain7647]

I enjoyed all of the examples given, and it was very imforative.

[@chloeburleson7489]

This was very educational. I learned that you really have to know your market and plan ahead so that you can use the appropriate strategy to approach your customers whether it's an international, transnational, localization, or global standardization strategy.

[@paigebanks4038]

This video was very informative over the strategies of international business. I found the use of real world examples to be very helpful. I especially liked the example of Nestle for localization strategy. I was aware that Nestle had different products in different markets, but I never took time to question why. Overall, this video has advanced my understanding of the different strategies of international business.

[@mathiaspegueroeriksen8025]

I really enjoyed this video! There must be a good strategy when performing international business, since many factors play into being successful. It is not easy to sell products in other countries, since the company has to adapt to different cultures and preferences of a specific country in order to sell the product. It can be very costly to enter a market, so you need to make sure by performing analysis based on the model in this video, to know that the market you will enter, has a high chance of gaining sales.

[@brycefisher735]

I learned quite a bit from this video especially from the section on global standardization strategy. I have not seen or heard about the chart with pressures for local responsiveness showing which strategy would be best based upon the amount of pressures.

[@bayleighbrannan1134]

I learned that global strategy sacrifices responsiveness to local requirements within each of its markets in favor of emphasizing efficiency. Transnational strategy seeks a middle ground between a multidomestic strategy and a global strategy.

[@meganarmstrong342]

I never realized that there were four different strategies that international businesses could use. The struggle of local responsiveness and cost reduction have varying weights depending on which strategy is used. They also have to watch out for threats that may come if they don't amount to their full potential.

[@kyndelfuller]

From watching this video, I learned the appropriateness for each strategy that can be used in international business. The chart including pressures for local responsiveness and pressures for cost reduction makes the entire process so much more clearly for me. If needed, you could skip to the end of the video to see what I am talking about. I am assured that it will be just as helpful for you.

[@madisynraulston8158]

The Strategys of internation business can be a difficut concept to grasp. This video is a great one to watch to try to have a better understanging because it offers real world examples. This video also gives a great explantion of the differnt types of pressure companys face and how it is a deciding factor of the strategys they use, great video overall!

[@christiancoke7072]

The international strategy seems to me to be the go to when it comes to international business for product companies due to the major advantages of low pressures for local responsiveness and low pressures for cost reductions. I'm not sure what strategy I would lean on more if I looked at taking a service company global though would definitely take a lot more research depending on the industry.

[@beSpiritfilled-w5w]

This Video was so simple and informative. Thank you.

[@haydencollins1970]

This is a great video describing the differences in all the different strategies companies can use to effectively make decisions. I also like the examples you gave for each strategy.

[@marshahenderson4480]

Great video. Most of the information here are things that I knew on one level, but I admit I did not know the terminology. As for local responsiveness, I have to admit that I relate to Britain in there position on "high-pressure" sales. I receive all of the advertising calls for my company and would much rather prefer a "softer" approach than what seems to be the standard practice here.

[@sophiachan442]

Love this video, highly recommend!

[@sarahchandler4573]

Working in the global marketplace seems to have some major challenges that would have to be adapted to. While there is a ton of advantages possible, there are a lot of careful steps to be taken to avoid losing money and to continue business growth.

[@clairemounce7180]

My biggest issue with pressure for cost reduction is the ethics of it, I know many times that the people who work for these lower wages in these countries are often the only bread winners for their families, but I cna't help but think the companies are saving enough to where they couldoffer better work conditions and wages.

[@notnow1165]

After watching this video I find myself wondering how companies I buy from use the various strategies and how it affects the global market.

[@RyanCurbo-p7o]

Each of these strategies has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of strategy will depend on a variety of factors, including the company's goals and resources, the characteristics of the target market, and the competitive landscape.

[@kirtikhassa]

Very informative 👍
