Marketing Mix for International Markets • Standardization - offering the same marketing mix in every market. • Adaptation -developing a unique marketing mix to fit each market’s local competitive conditions, consumer preferences, and government regulations. • Mass customization - firms mass produce goods and services and add unique features to individual or small groups of orders.
