Marketing and Advertisement in Cross-Border E-Commerce
Recently, cross-border e-commerce has been growing rapidly among the developed and developing countries. Marketing managers design marketing and advertising strategies targeted to local and across the country. Companies need to develop separate marketing programs for different country and diverse cultural context. In this chapter, the authors discuss cross-border e-commerce, its development, the advertisement and marketing strategies, policies, and programs that are applicable to the arena of cross-border e-commerce. However, advances in communication technologies, transportation, and other technological advances have made the world a much smaller place.
