| Abstract | Multivariate statistical analysis is utilized to explore the association between firm strategies, contributions made by venture capitalists and incentives for owners and employees and three exporting variables in a stratified random sample of 147 management buyouts and buyins. Firms focusing upon a diversified product/ service range and/or advertising were significantly more likely to be exporters. Firms focusing upon product/ service quality and financial efficiency and those with high proportions of employees receiving performance related pay were significantly less likely to be exporters. Manufacturing firms and firms focusing upon a diversified product/ service range and/or advertising were significantly more likely to report high percentages of sales exported. Variations in the proportion of sales exported over time were associated with strategies focused upon product/service quality and a diversified product/ service range. |
