The influence of adaptation and standardization of the marketing mix on performance: A meta-analysis

This article analyzes the relationship between strategies of standardization and adaptation of the marketing mix and performance in an international context. We carried out a meta-analysis on a sample of 23 studies published between 1992 and 2010. The sample was analyzed based on measures of the eff...

We carried out a meta-analysis on a sample of 23 studies published between 1992 and 2010. The sample was analyzed based on measures of the effect size (ES) – or the strength of the relation (Wolf, 1986) – between standardization/adaptation and performance. The results suggest the existence of a medium strength (ES ranging from .133 to .209) for the relationship considered. The results support the existence of a positive impact of both marketing mix adaptation and standardization on performance. However, our results suggest that companies should slightly emphasize the marketing mix adaptation (ES mean = .168) instead of standardizing it (ES mean = .134) when entering in a new international market. Results also indicate that, among the adaptation choices, price (ES = .209) should be the first element of the marketing mix to be adapted, followed by promotion (ES = .155), product (ES = .154), and distribution (ES = .141). Finally, we suggest some new research paths, such as the use of quantitative methods to compare degrees of adaptation to be applied to different segments, regions, and sectors, among other suggestions.ANPAD - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração2011-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://bar.anpad.org.br/index.php/bar/article/view/15410.1590/S1807-76922011000300004Brazilian Administration Review; Vol. 8 No. 3 (2011): Jul/Sep - 2011; 266-2871807-7692reponame:BAR - Brazilian Administration Reviewinstname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração (ANPAD)instacron:ANPADenghttps://bar.anpad.org.br/index.php/bar/article/view/154/142Copyright (c) 2019 Brazilian Administration Reviewhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBrei, Vinícius AndradeD'Avila, LíviaCamargo, Luis FelipeEngels, Juliana2019-09-21T23:08:33Zoai:ojs3.bar.anpad.org.br:article/154Revistahttps://bar.anpad.org.br/index.php/bar/PUBhttps://bar.anpad.org.br/index.php/bar/oaibar-eic@anpad.org.br || bar@anpad.org.br1807-76921807-7692opendoar:2019-09-21T23:08:33BAR - Brazilian Administration Review - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração (ANPAD)false
