Certainly growing uncertainty, flux and diversity have resulted in increasing complexity of global organizations, As Kotler (2012) notes in his latest book, “it is useful to assume that companies strive to maximize profits. However, they differ in the relative emphasis they put on short-term or long-term profit. In order to fulfill this fundamental aim, each one pursues some mix of objectives: market share growth, current profitability, cash flow, technological leadership and service leadership. ”The last two of them, are our new market expansion goal. Therefore global companies must put forth the marketing plan of a well known and established business, with an alternativemarketing strategy for the needs of product diversification strategy to move to the field of product/service innovation.

You must face these constraints and pressures and impose your own will in part.
You have to adapt to the environment, but also to try to change it.
You must decipher the environment and challenging activities so the company fights on niches where it has:
1) advantages over its competitors,
2) expansion possibilities
Change all of the services that accompany the product material to make the overall product more attractive
Change the division of labor in the industry, subcontractor or taking control of some production stage
Review the mission of the company based on changing customer needs
You need to build sustainable competitive advantages defendable
