...Worldwide competition One of the product categories in which global competition has been easy to track in U.S.is automotive sales. The increasing intensity of competition in global markets is a challenge facing companies at all stages of involvement in international markets. As markets open up, and become more integrated, the pace of change accelerates, technology shrinks distances between markets and reduces the scale advantages of large firms, new sources of competition emerge, and competitive pressures mount at all levels of the organization. Also, the threat of competition from companies in countries such as India, China, Malaysia, and Brazil is on the rise, as their own domestic markets are opening up to foreign competition, stimulating greater awareness of international market opportunities and of the need to be internationally competitive. Companies which previously focused on protected domestic markets are entering into markets in other countries, creating new sources of competition, often targeted to price-sensitive market segments. Not only is competition intensifying for all firms regardless of their degree of global market involvement, but the basis for competition is changing. Competition continues to be market-based and ultimately relies on delivering superior value to consumers. However, success in global markets depends on knowledge accumulation and deployment.[1] tiwana. [edit]Evolution to global marketing Global marketing is not a revolutionary shift,...

...Relationship marketing (5 approaches & basic principles) Relationship Marketing refers to a long-term and mutually beneficial arrangement where both the buyer and seller have an interest in providing a more satisfying exchange. This approach attempts to transcend the simple purchase-exchange process with a customer to make more meaningful and richer contact by providing a more holistic, personalized purchase, and uses the experience to create stronger ties. With the growth of the internet and mobile platforms, Relationship Marketing has continued to evolve and move forward as technology opens more collaborative and social communication channels. A simple example of this would be sending new customers a "Welcome Kit," which might have an incentive to make a second purchase. If 60 days pass and the customer have not made a second purchase, you would follow up with an e-mailed discount. You are using customer behaviour over time to trigger the marketing approach. Relationship Marketing Vs Transactional Marketing Transactional marketing is a business strategy that focuses on “single point of sale” transactions. The emphasis is on maximizing the efficiency and volume of individual sales rather than developing a relationship with buyer. On the other hand relationship marketing is a business strategy that seeks to establish long term relationship with its customers rather than focusing on single transaction, not only does it focus on individual customers but on all the stakeholders...

...Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. I. Analysis of the Problem Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. has experienced abundant success as the fastest growing restaurant chain in the United States and has dominated a large share of the fast-casual Mexican market. Chipotle was ranked eighth in a list of fastest-growing chains in 2009 and third in 2010 based on increases in U.S. sales during that time period. In order to sustain growth and build on accelerated success, Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. must implement a variety of strategy over the next five years to account for the new competitive market, new technologies, developments via the Internet and eMarketing, and new segmentation and positioning imperatives. Culinary artist and line cook Steve Ellis established Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. in 1993 in Denver Colorado after noting the popularity of taquerias and other Tex Mex food items in the San Francisco area (wikipedia.com). In 1998, McDonald’s made an initial minority investment in the corporation and become its largest investor by 2001 (wikipedia.com). The investment from McDonald’s granted Chipotle the opportunity to quickly expand from 16 restaurants in 1998 to 837 locations in 2009 (wikipedia.com, slideshare.net). While Chipotle is one of the fastest growing restaurants in North America, the corporation faces competition from corporations such as Moe’s Southwest Grill, Qdoba Mexican Grill, Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill, Panchero’s Mexican Grill, and Baja Fresh (wikipedia.com).
