    (LLC CPC Business Perspectives, 2006) Ural, Tulin; Acaravc, Songul Kakilli
    This study aims to explain the effects of firm's strategic factors on export and economic performance of Turkish manufacturing sector. The firm's key strategic factors are determined as three groups: the first group consists of the firm's competitive home position factors such as market share and labour productivity, the second group consists of the firm's growth strategies such as market penetration, innovation and diversification, and the third one consists of the firm's structural factors such as firm size and capital intensity. The study also examines the differences between permanent exporters and sporadic exporters based on these firm's strategic factors. In this study panel data analysis is used. The results of the model show that (1) market share, firm size, labour productivity and capital intensity affect significantly the firm's economic performance, (2) export intensity isn't related to the firm's economic performance, (3) R&D intensity and labour productivity affect negatively the firm's export intensity, (4) product and industrial diversifactions affect positively the permanent exporter's economic performance. While industrial diversifaction affects negatively, firm size and labour productivity affect positively the sporadic exporter's economic performance. The effect of industrial diversification on firm's economic performance is different both for permanent exporters and sporadic exporters. (5) industrial diversifaction affects negatively the permanent exporter's export intensity while it affects positively the sporadic exporter's export intensity. The effect of industrial diversification on firm's export intensity is different both for permanent exporters and sporadic exporters. This study contributes to a new strategic implication of export activity in business research. © Tulin Ural, Songul Kakilli Acaravci, 2006.
