Answer to Question 1

Many households, especially in emerging economies, lack access to Internet connections. Therefore, if a company wants to reach mass global markets, it will need to supplement its Internet sales with sales using other means of promoting and distribution. A company also needs to set up and promote its Internet sales, which can be very expensive. A company cannot easily differentiate its marketing program for each country where it operates. If a company makes international sales over the Internet, it must deliver what it sells expeditiously. This may necessitate placing warehouses and service facilities abroad, which the company may or may not own and manage itself. Finally, the company's Internet ads and prices must comply with the laws of each country where the company makes sales. This is a challenge because a company's Web page reaches Internet users everywhere. E-commerce enables consumers to compare prices quickly among distributors, which will likely cause prices to decrease.
