A survey was conducted with Korean exporters and several interesting characteristics were found as follows. First, the exporters employing brand marketing strategy were found to engage in independent market research. Second, they also tend to export products whose levels of quality are as competitive as to those of competing products from industrialized countries, and whose level of price shows a similar characteristic. Finally, the exporters employing brand marketing were found to believe that brand marketing would contribute to their competitiveness in export markets.
