Question 1:
Introduction
This report is written to the CEO of Wong Enterprise for their business operation. Wong Enterprises is Shanghai-based firm which was established 5 years ago. The firm built custom based furniture products or as per demand of people. There are currently 4 stores in Shanghai which is to be run by this firm and also accepts order
online. Now company is thinking of expanding their business for E-store Australia. Presently they are giving 24 hrs customer support services to their local clients but there is no such support for global clients because support team is not trained in such a manner to handle them. There should be online website for customer support. Currently they do not have support for any IT framework or assets which will delivers items to their international clients.
Recommendations
The global business is an essential part and good way to expand the business in Australia. Here is my recommendation to CEO of Wong Enterprise to sell in Australia as listed below:
1) Online selling through website: If anyone is having business and want to sell internationally then website is must. The website offers various advantages to business as it is the great way to sell product internationally and is medium for international sales. So business can sell through website easily. For selling online via internet, there are two sales strategies for business to be follow:
· Firstly, business will learn about foreign taxes system and custom laws of Australia. For accepting payment from foreign clients due to difference in currency, business will accept payment in the form of PayPal and eBay. It is very essential to understand the code of conduct for doing business electronically in Australia. There is some code of conduct for doing business in Australia such as privacy policy for customer data, secure online payment methods, correct information about company and their products, accuracy or complete information on website etc. The code of conduct privacy policy is to not disclosing customer privacy during their payment transactions. There is full clarity to customers that how their information will be used. The payment method which is to be used on website should be very much secure as it is not vulnerable to any threat or attackers. According to code of conduct policy, terms and conditions regarding online sales which consist of guarantee or warrantee of item, return, exchange, refund etc. should be clearly mention on business website. Also cost of item for Australian customer will be clearly shown or mention on the website. Another code of conduct policy is to clearly mention about company products with full description and business will provide full details about company to their foreign customers. All the information about company and their products on website should be accurate, complete and truthful.
· Secondly website may use some new strategies for Australian clients. If customer on their website is from Australia, then the website will show prices of items in Australian currency. In order to target new Australian customer via website, there should be some fair strategy such as use of language converter software for Australian and Shanghai customer.

2) Build a scalable IT infrastructure: There are step by step process involved in global business expansion. In order to build scalable IT assets, companies need to search for best cloud computing infrastructure services. Cloud infrastructure services will offer various benefit to Wong enterprise such as automate certain tasks like email marketing, document storage, daily backups etc. The cloud based infrastructure provide secure offsite technology assets which are developed to do scaling process faster and easy. There is no worry for company to upgrade software or hardware issues as everything is managed on cloud. [Heimes 2014]
