    The incentives and opportunities of trading with Korea are substantial. Korean businesses have a tendency in the course of direct contacts to be more complete. Something as simple as Face to face contact or shaking hands with the customers during the negotiation processes is a type of marketing strategy that our selected company uses instead of contracting through email or telephone communications. Contacting potential customers in the Asian market by email or telephone won’t help a company to increase the market share in an Asian market.…

    This piece is evidence of what Bonnie C. Wade would call "glocalization" (also known as global localization). Wade stated that "globally shared music is constantly recontextualized by those who listen to it, given new meanings, and made to perform new as well as the same old functions" (Wade pp. 19). When I first listened to the piece, I did not get that meaning. To me, this is a beautiful song with an upbeat feel. It is light and can easily be danced to.…

    This document discusses different types of customers and their customer service complaints, focusing on the Hispanic point of view. Hispanics are the fastest growing minority and ethnic group in the U.S., and amass great purchase power. The Hispanic customers are discerning, demanding, and loyal to their favorite brand. Upon disappointing this large and powerful market segment, organizations have much work to do to recapture their trust. Companies must learn about the customer service needs of their Hispanic clients and find strategic ways to fill the voids in their industry. The Hispanic customers know good customer service by nature, and as long as their favorite brands provide quality merchandise, and superior customer service Hispanics will remain loyal, and will travel to purchase their products and services.…

    Modern business imperatives dictate that companies adopt a strategy of marketing both locally and globally if they have to compete or capture a significant portion of the market. The concept of global village means that the global market is shrinking and barriers that used to be impenetrable are breaking down allowing for businesses to market their brands out of their traditional market strongholds. The effects of this is that companies will make a global presence but with a local flavor and close attention to the new local communities or markets that they are seeking to acquire.…

    Japanese are familiar with small business where they can buy specific products. The American concept of big quantities of products at low price is not very attractive for Japanese. Retailers with the highest grow rate are small stores instead of big surfaces. Because of their diet, Japanese tend to buy fresh products instead of pre-packaged goods where Wal-Mart is an expertise. Another point of cultural conflict is the fact that Japanese associate high prices with high quality and this is not exactly Wal-Mart’s business plan. This mentality is the reason why Japanese buy over 40% of the world’s luxury goods annually. This country puts vitally importance on a good customer service where Wal-Mart is known for his poor customer service.…

    Abstract This paper argues that the alleged process of globalisation should be recast as a process of ‘glocalisation’. ‘Glocalisation’ refers to the twin process whereby, firstly, institutional/regulatory arrangements shift from the national scale both upwards to supra-national or global scales and downwards to the scale of the individual body or to local, urban or regional configurations and, secondly, economic activities and inter-firm networks are becoming simultaneously more localised/regionalised and transnational. In particular, attention will be paid to the political and economic dynamics of this geographical rescaling and its implications. The scales of economic networks and institutional arrangements are recast in ways that alter social power geometries in important ways. This contribution, therefore, argues, first, that an important discursive shift took place over the last decade or so which is an integral part of an intensifying ideological, political, socioeconomic and cultural struggle over the organisation of society and the position of the citizen. Secondly, the pre-eminence of the ‘global’ in much of the literature and political rhetoric obfuscates, marginalizes and silences an intense and ongoing socio-spatial struggle in which the reconfiguration of spatial scale is a key arena. Third, both the scales of economic flows and networks and those of territorial governance are rescaled through a process of ‘glocalisation’, and, finally, the proliferation of new modes and forms of resistance to the restless process of de-territorialisation/re-territorialisation of capital requires greater attention to engaging a ‘politics of scale’. In the final part, attention will be paid to the potentially empowering possibilities of a politics that is sensitive to these scale issues.…
