Globalisation has completely transformed how businesses operate today, creating opportunities... Show more
Globalisation is making the world more connected through increased trade and cultural exchange - think about how easily you can buy products from Japan or watch films from America. This process has revolutionised how businesses operate and compete.
When businesses engage in imports, they're bringing products made overseas into the UK. This strategy works brilliantly because other countries often produce items that British consumers want to try, and it saves businesses from having to manufacture everything themselves. On the flip side, exports involve selling UK-made products or raw materials to overseas markets.
Some companies take globalisation even further by becoming multinationals - businesses that operate in multiple countries. They might relocate entirely overseas, often because labour costs are significantly lower than in the UK.
However, international trade isn't always smooth sailing. Tariffs act as barriers - these are taxes governments place on imports to make them more expensive and less attractive to consumers. Whilst tariffs can protect UK businesses from foreign competition and generate government revenue, they also increase prices for consumers and can trigger retaliatory tariffs from other countries. Trade blocs offer a solution by creating agreements between countries to eliminate tariffs on each other's products.
Quick Tip: Remember that tariffs work like a tax that makes foreign products more expensive, giving domestic businesses a price advantage.
The internet has completely revolutionised international competition, making it easier than ever for businesses to reach global customers. E-commerce allows companies to sell worldwide through websites without investing in expensive foreign shops - translation services and delivery firms like UPS handle the logistics.
Smart businesses know they can't simply copy-paste their domestic strategy internationally. The marketing mix needs careful adjustment for different markets. Products might need tweaking to suit local tastes, colours that are lucky in one culture might be unlucky in another, and even brand names sometimes need changing to avoid unfortunate translations.
Pricing strategies also require rethinking when you consider different wage levels across countries. What's affordable in the UK might be luxury pricing elsewhere. Similarly, promotional techniques that work brilliantly with British audiences might completely miss the mark in other cultures.
Transportation becomes a crucial consideration too - businesses must find reliable methods to get their goods to international customers whilst keeping costs reasonable.
Reality Check: Successful international businesses don't just translate their websites - they adapt their entire approach to connect with local customers effectively.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
