Entrepreneurship and International Management

Although many people associate international management with big business, many

smaller companies are finding expansion and growth opportunities in foreign countries.

For example, Fuci Metals, a small but growing enterprise, buys metal from remote loca-

tions in areas such as Siberia and Africa and then sells it to big automakers such as Ford

and Toyota. Similarly, California-based Gold’s Gym is expanding into foreign countries

and has been especially successful in Russia. And Markel Corporation, a small

Philadelphia-based firm that manufactures tubing and insulated wiring, derives 40 per-

cent of its annual revenues (currently around $32 million) from international sales.

Although such ventures are accompanied by considerable risks, they give entrepreneurs

new opportunities and can be a real catalyst for success.

STRUCTURE OF ENTREPRENEURIAL

ORGANIZATIONS

With a strategy in place and a business plan in hand, the entrepreneur can then proceed

to devise a structure that turns the vision of the business plan into a reality. Many of the

same concerns in structuring any business, which are described in the next five chapters

of this book, are also relevant to small businesses. For example, entrepreneurs need to

consider organization design and develop job descriptions, organization charts, and man-

agement control systems.

The Internet, of course, has virtually rewritten all the rules for starting and operating

a small business. Getting into business is easier and faster than ever before, there

are many more potential opportunities than at any other time in history, and the

ability to gather and assimilate information is at an all-time high. And social media

introduces new companies to larger potential markets than ever before.

20

For example,



HardToFindPartySupplies.com has been successful marketing discontinued or hard-

to-find supplies like Power Ranger paper plates, Lone Ranger napkins, and Snow White

drinking cups. The firm relies solely on social media and its website.

21

Even so, would-be entrepreneurs must still make the right decisions when they start.



They must decide, for example, precisely how to get into business. Should they buy an

existing business or build from the ground up? In addition, would-be entrepreneurs must

find appropriate sources of financing and decide when and how to seek the advice of

experts.
