Selecting communication tools is a multi criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. Below limited budget, the decision maker should select the best communication tools that affect the consumers effectively. In the beginning, the study assembles decision model by interviewing exporters and literature review. Counting relative weigh of communication effect and communication tools will be applied by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). With the upper and lower limits of time blocks for purchasing communication tools, an Integer Programming (IP) was applied to find the best combination of communication tools below a fixed budget.
