Answer to Question 1

Answer: Most companies initially become global without making substantial investments in foreign countries by exporting, licensing, or franchising. Exporting entails selling abroad, either directly or indirectly, by retaining foreign agents and distributors. It is a way that many small businesses enter the global market. Licensing is an arrangement whereby an organization grants a foreign firm the right to use intellectual properties such as patents, copyrights, manufacturing processes, or trade names for a specific period of time. Licensing is usually limited to manufacturers. Franchising is an option whereby the parent company grants another firm the right to do business in a prescribed manner. The growth of franchising in the world is phenomenal. Franchisees must follow stricter operational guidelines than do licensees.
