However, Haier home appliances market in the United States is still faced with low brand awareness and low market share, everybody electric products is not sales scale issues, this article is in this conte*t of Haier household appliances in the United States market marketing strategy of investigation and study.2.Marketing analysis decisions prior to entryThe United States market is a very mature market, is the world's most difficult to enter the market. Many Asian panies are planted right in this market. Acer, Taiwan, spent $about 1000000000 in the past 10 years in the United States to sell its brand, but finally because of a serious loss of the United States to withdraw from the market. Due to the difficulty of entering the U.S. market, China's Domestic pany currently mainly through the way to enter the United States to take a single production or OEM market. For e*ample, Kelon, in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong sales hit is its own brand, but sales in the United States and Europe are OEM way that it e*ports products to the United States in the American pany's brand sales. For e*ample, WAL-MART is currently in the chain store sales Magic Chef brand is the design and manufacture of Kelon refrigerator. Currently in the U.S. market, Chinese products, hit the Chinese brand enterprises, Haier is the first.Haier refrigerator has been named as the best-selling products in the United states. The well-known American magazine "twice" the nation's best selling home appliances were statistically, Haier (600690) refrigerator with GE. Whirlpool and other world famous together to bee America's best-selling products, including Haier as the representative of all kinds of small refrigerator sales growth the fastest, the average speed according to 23.9%o off statistics, Haier two types of refrigerator BClll and bc50 is America's most popular small refrigerator, in September 2000 statistics ranked 2 and 4 (August 2000 ranking was No. 1 and No. 2). The United States home appliance market, the famous brand, petitive, almost all the world famous brand arena. Haier can take its own brand in the U.S. market to occupy a place, Haier products have been fully equipped with the ability to participate in the international high level of petition. Haier chose to focus on the development of the U.S. market, the main reasons are as follows:(1) Foreign home appliance enterprises to enter the Chinese market. After China's accession to the WTO, the foreign household electrical appliance enterprises have landed in China, "rushing to eat meat, Chinese household electrical appliance enterprises in considering how to defend. How to keep the domestic market at the same time, began to consider more how to move toward the world, to open up overseas markets. (2) Domestic market demand saturation of domestic home appliance enterprises petition. Chinese household electrical appliance industry in the late 1990s, due to market saturation, petition is fierce, playing the price war, home appliance industry profits thin as a blade, resulting in household electrical appliance enterprises must look for new markets, achieve new breakthroughs. (3) Haier globalization strategy. Haier in the conte*t of the globalization strategy guide, take globalization "first after the difficult easy" strategy, first enter the developed countries establish a brand, market and potential to operate from a strategically advantageous position of the occupation of developing countries. (4) The great attraction of the US home appliance market.

To washing machines as an e*ample, according to Euromonitor data, global capacity of the washing machine is 7753 million units, which the United States home appliance market wash clothes dryer Market Capacity about 16 million units, about 21% of the capacity of the global market. So Haier to bee the true sense of the world's first home appliance brand, the development of the U.S. market is essential. (5) The support of China's national policy. Chinese government to encourage national enterprises to go abroad, to the world, but also for e*port enterprises to provide a series of preferential policies, such as e*port ta* rebates, etc.3.Market research undertaken prior to market entry1Market segmentationHaier's research and development and market sales staff will be fine differentiation of the market is attributed to the style breakdown, segments, e*port segments and geographical segments of the four categories.
