4. Identify the factors on which one may judge the potential success or failure of a
multinational market group.
The political factors necessary for a successful common market are:
a. Similar political base, views and objectives
b. Willingness to give up some national authority to cooperate for the total benefit
of all.
6. Imagine that the United States was composed of many separate countries with
individual trade barriers. What marketing effects might one visualize?
A. Fragmented market: the market for products and services would be highly
fragmented, with different regulations, tariffs, and trade barriers in each country.
This would make it difficult for businesses to market their products and services
effectively across different regions, resulting in a highly segmented market.
B. Increased costs: the presence of individual trade barriers would result in increased
costs for businesses. For examples, businesses would need to navigate different
regulations and tariffs in each country, which would increase the cost of production and
distribution. This would result in higher prices for consumers and reduced
competitiveness for businesses.
C. Limited market access: individual trade barriers would also limit market access for
businesses. Businesses would be constrained by the trade barriers in each country,
making it difficult for them to expand their market reach. This would be particularly
challenging for small and medium-sized businesses that lack the resources to navigate
complex trade barriers.
