  • 24.8% plan increases of 11-20%.
  • 8.8% plan increases of 21-30%.
  • 6.4% plan increases of more than 30%.

Among marketers anticipating decreases this year in non-US marketing budgets:

  • 87.8% plan decreases of 1-10%.
  • Just 12.2% plan decreases of more than 10%.

Surprisingly, 69.7% of those surveyed say they do not have a web presence?in other languages, and 58.4% say they do not have marketing materials in other languages.

One-quarter of marketers surveyed (25.9%) say 1-10% of company revenue is from non-US business; 9.1% say 11-20%; and 11.7% say 21-30%. Of the remaining 53% of companies, about one-quarter say all their revenue is from within the US, and about one-quarter said more than 30% comes from outside the US.

BtoB conducted the online survey of 274 marketers during the last week of July and the first week of August.
