36
Global Marketer’s Dilemma
Should we offer the same product, marketing, and advertising throughout the world? Should we adapt the product, marketing, and advertising to each of several societies throughout the world?
37
Globalization (standardization)
This approach assumes that differences between countries are more a matter of degree than direction, hence advertisers must instead focus on the similarities of consumers around the world. “18 yr olds in Paris have more in common with 18 yr olds in NY than with their own parents”. Wiliam Rody, Director of MTV.
38
Localization (adaptation)
This approach is based on the fact that advertises must explicitly consider difference among countries, including culture, stage of economic & industrial development, stage of PLC, media availability, etc.
39
Contingency (moderate)
This approach suggests that neither complete globalization nor complete localization is necessary & that a combination of the 2 approaches is the most effective. Some mkters call this “Think globally, act locally”.
40
Globalization vs. Localization | - Advantages of ‘Global’ Marketing and Advertising
Economies of Scale in Production, Distribution Lower Costs With Less in Planning and Control Lower Advertising and Production Costs Ability to Exploit Good Ideas Worldwide Ability to Introduce Products Quickly, Worldwide Consistent International Brand, Company Identity Simplification of Coordination and Control
41
Globalization vs. Localization | - Problems With ‘Global’ Advertising
Differences in Culture, Market and Economic Conditions Make It Difficult to Use Global Advertising Media Availability or Usage May Vary by Country or Region Consumers Needs and Usage Patterns Often Vary by Country or Region Legal Restrictions May Make It Difficult to Develop an Effective Universal Appeal
42
Globalization Often Works Best For:
Brands can be adopted for visual appeal, avoiding problems of translating words into many languages Brands promoted with image campaigns playing to universal appeals such as sex or wealth or fear. High-tech products, new to the world, not steeped in the cultural heritage of the country of origin Products with with a nationalistic flavor if the country has a favorable reputation in the field Products appealing to a market segment with universally similar tastes, interests, needs, and values.
43

consistent
44
Contingency (moderate)
This approach suggests that neither complete globalization nor complete. Localization is necessary & that a combination of the 2 approaches is often the most effective. Some mkters call this “Think globally, act locally”.
