- Develop actionable, realistic, measurable international marketing objectives, which are directly in line with the results. These should be adequately justified.
- Design an outline international marketing strategy aimed at achieving the set objectives. In the report, creativity, realism and precision will be rewarded.
- Outline the product modifications (if any), pricing, promotion and distribution decisions along with the key challenges to global expansion for the SME in this market
