1. Abstract
Global expansion in the business market is becoming a
revolutionary game changer. In today’s modern world, the
people are used to having everything at their fingertips,
including instant access to international purchases. In order for
this to be achieved, businesses need to consider whether or not
the transition to a global market is beneficial for their company
or not. Of course, global expansion is not the only way for a
company to grow. It does, however, allow for the company to
increase their market and therefore allow their product to be
sold to more people, resulting in higher profits. Naturally, there
are many benefits, and drawbacks, to global expansion. This
report outlines three major areas of concern for businesses when
they decide to expand globally, and discusses the pros and cons
of these areas as it pertains to expanding.
Introduction
Overview
Sometimes, business need help deciding whether or not global
expansion is something that would benefit their company. The
purpose of this report is to outline, in depth, three key
components that should be considered when a business is
thinking about global expansion. These components include: the
cost it would take to expand globally, the effect that the
expansion would have on American jobs, and the cultural
barriers that the business is likely to face.
Background
Businesses usually begin to consider to expand within the
global market, when they are in need of growth and new
developments. A company can only grow so large within their
domestic area before they need to consider international soils
for further growth. The need for growth can occur one of
several ways. Usually, it occurs when they are needing a new
area to introduce their market, because their current market is
already familiar with their products. There are, however,

2. usually some characteristics that the company possesses
beforehand, that would make them a good fit to begin thinking
about global expansion. These traits include (but are not limited
to): possessing an innate global bias, favoring the web, working
with the right partners, valuing opportunity, knowing their
metrics, taking international strategy seriously, etc. (Kelly,
2015). So what does all of this mean? Basically, if the company
possesses these characteristics before they actually expand
globally, they then possess the correct foundation to have a
higher chance for success within the global market.
Once a company has decided to take the first step in looking
into global expansion for their business, they then need to
weigh out all of the challenges that they will face and determine
whether or not these challenges are beneficial to the company’s
risks. This report is choosing to focus on the challenges of cost,
cultural barriers, and the effects that the expansion will have on
American jobs. These challenges are all going to mean different
things for different businesses and it is important that they are
each discussed thoroughly, before deciding whether or not
global expansion is a good fit for the company.

4. Creating Part 1 of the Final Presentation for the Week 3
Assignment
Part 1 of the Final Presentation must:
· Be 5 to 7 slides (excludes the title slide and reference slides)
and be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the
Ashford Writing Center.
· Be presented using Microsoft PowerPoint slide presentation.
You have a choice of one of the following options for adding
the narrative to your presentation. Option 2 is adding speaker
notes to each slide.
· Option 2: Using speaker notes for each slide in the PPT. You
can review the tutorial using this link: adding speaker notes to
your presentation. You can also click on the following links to
view the Accessibility Statement , and the Privacy Policy.
· Speaker notes are the typed notes that appear below the slide
that complement the presentation slides. Whereas the slides will
have short bulleted items, the speaker notes will be more
detailed. They are essentially what the presenter would say
during the presentation to explain each of the bulleted points on
the slide. Therefore, it is important that the speaker notes are
concise and detailed when explaining the bullet points.
·
· It is recommended that PowerPoint Slides contain no more
than five bullet points and should not contain more than 5 - 7
words each. Do not type paragraphs or long sentences on the
slide. The information that explains each bullet point is
conveyed via speaker notes or by recording your voice to each
slide.

5. · It is required that the Microsoft PowerPoint presentation
include the use of a voice or speaker notes. If you choose to use
the voice capabilities within PowerPoint, you must include your
citations in the speaker notes for each slide.
· Be visually engaging. For assistance with designing the
visuals for your presentation, view the video Don McMillan:
Life after death by PowerPoint (click on the following links to
view the Accessibility Statement or the Privacy Policy) or
the PowerPoint Best Practices tool.
