The Big Idea
Value in the form of market capitalization migrates to the most efficient business model. Example: Apple versus Dell. Value will continue migrating to businesses with strong brands, fluid process-manufacturing system for content, efficient localization, and agile IT service delivery of content and Web applications. Question: What’s your business model for the Web 3.0 reality?
Key Propositions
- Effective marketing brings attractive value propositions to those buyers most likely to buy, emphasizing both the right message and good market coverage.
- Delays in getting to market reduce the effectiveness of an otherwise attractive value propositions, representing the loss of days or weeks of product-sales life cycles.
- Distributed in-country localization of copy and graphic images combined with low or non-existent levels of reuse of digital brand and marcom assets cause excessive levels of project coordination, extra cost, brand inconsistencies, and delays in a pan-regional marketing operations.
- Manual, duplicated, and offline workflows for localizing print collateral exacerbate the problems of high levels of project coordination, extra cost, brand inconsistencies, and delays in a pan-regional marketing operations.
- A centralized or federated marketing-claims database, the automated localization of copy-written material and graphic images, and the orchestrated production of Web-ready XML content and finished print-ready marcom collateral can:
- Cut three to five weeks in the time-to-market for most pan-regional promotions,
- Reduce the total cost per localized page by 70 percent, and
- Publish at little or no extra cost native-language XML content Web and mobile users.
- A pan-regional marcom operations unlocks the full value of bringing attractive value propositions to market,
- Speeding the localization and distribution of Web, mobile, and printed advertisements and marketing content by three to five weeks
- Freeing up 35 percent of production budgets for reinvestment in more media, online promotions, or direct mail, and
- Enabling four to seven marcom staffers per $50 million in marketing spend to perform higher added-value work.
