Nowe koncepcje marketingu w procesie tworzenia strategii marketingowej na rynkach międzynarodowych

The aim of this article is to present a critical approach to the concepts of building the company’s marketing strategy on international markets and to the content of its subsequent stages. In order to do that the author analyses both Polish and foreign literature on international marketing. The initial stages of international marketing strategies should include the selection of a foreign market and forms of expansion into it. The company’s marketing-mix programme can only be developed after that as the form of expansion determines the content and the combination of marketing tools. The international marketing strategy should be built on the basis of marketing research conducted sequentially. The concept of Agile Marketing, a popular subject of recent marketing literature, is not particularly useful here as it mainly refers to the implementation of marketing strategies on international markets. The other marketing concepts can be also used in the international expansion process, particulary in communication and promotiional activities on foreign markets.
