What is Export Marketing?
Export marketing is about marketing across national borders. All the basic principles of marketing can be applied to both domestic and export marketing, the latter is far more challenging because when entering a new country/market, the marketer will have to deal with a different kind of customer in a foreign environment with laws and regulations that may differ radically from those of the domestic market. Even in a world that is moving towards increasing similarities in consumer tastes, marketing methods, production processes and business practices, there are still a significant number of differences between international markets to make selling to them challenging - see figure 2.

In case of items like readymade garments, leather goods, processed foods, engineering items, the performance has been commendable both in terms of value and their share within the MSME sector while in some cases like sports goods they account for 100% share to the total exports of the sector. In view of this, export promotion from the small scale sector has been accorded high priority in India’s export promotion strategy which includes simplification of procedures, incentives for higher production of exports, preferential treatments to MSMEs in the market development fund, simplification of duty drawback rules, etc. Products of MSME exporters are displayed in international exhibitions free of cost under SIDO Umbrella abroad.
