Having an effective strategy can be the difference between success and failure in global marketing. You’ll explore and apply real-life examples of good and bad practices using culture in global marketing, helping you reflect on how culture impacts your own marketing strategies.


By the end of the course, you’ll have a better understanding of markets and buyers as well as customer service and relationship management across cultures.
