Abstract: Abstract: Lacking of international marketing experiences of Chinese small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) makes them face difficulties in their international marketing activities. To deal with it and better arrange their product, price,place, promotion decisions (4 Ps) in more efficient arrangement according to their relative advantages as fast adjustment speed etc., this paper suggests an integrative 4 Ps, as "pyramid-shaped" 4Ps, i.e., a 4P combination that includes a "narrow and clear" pyramid spire (product); a "flexible" pyramid body (a promotion and price combination); and a "solid" pyramid base (channel). This ‘pyramid-shaped’ marketing mix explains the coherent cooperation and relations of 4Ps, which will benefit Chinese SMEs international marketing bunsiness in an operative way.
