- Fairness (would it be considered fair?)
- Check (consequences?)
9. Global competition and connection to international marketing activities

national economies to the forces of global competition.

- When analysing a product for a second market, adaptation required depends on
the cultural differences in perception between products in the original market
and the new one.

cycle stage
Penetration pricing is used for new products into a market – introductory stage
Price skimming is used during the introductory & growth phase
