Time your market entry to maximize your returns.
​
The rewards of entering a new market for any business are counterbalanced by the risks posed by an alien geography. Companies need to have a nuanced understanding of the different market, regulatory and macro forces in play if they intent to make their entry into a new market successful.
It is imperative to time the market entry right as the companies neither want to be too early nor too late when entering a new market. Timing the market is only one piece of jigsaw and businesses need to understand the full reality of different factors in play. Economic considerations unique to a certain market may have an impact on purchasing power and price sensitivity. The presence of established local and global players, along with social and cultural elements that affect consumers' perceptions and behavior, government and regulatory hurdles further adds to the complexity.
