International Marketing Research Paperback / softback

International Marketing Research is widely regarded as the definitive textbook in its field.

The third edition is completely updated to reflect changes in both the structure and practice of international marketing research in the last five years.

As business is being increasingly conducted on a global scale, the need for valid and reliable information to make decisions is intensifying.

Industry consolidation of research firms has accelerated as they strive to serve global clients more efficiently.

The Internet has burst on to the scene as an alternative way to gather information and conduct surveys rapidly. The third edition has incorporated these developments while adhering to the underlying principles that guided the previous two editions, namely that the basic principles of marketing research are the same whether research is conducted in an international or a domestic context.

However, the international marketing researcher faces greater difficulties than his or her domestic counterpart.

These difficulties stem from operating across national boundaries and in a diverse range of socio-cultural environments.
