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
  1. Effective marketing brings attractive value propositions to those buyers most likely to buy, emphasizing both the right message and good market coverage.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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:
    1. Cut three to five weeks in the time-to-market for most pan-regional promotions,
    2. Reduce the total cost per localized page by 70 percent, and
    3. Publish at little or no extra cost native-language XML content Web and mobile users.
  6. A pan-regional marcom operations unlocks the full value of bringing attractive value propositions to market,
    1. Speeding the localization and distribution of Web, mobile, and printed advertisements and marketing content by three to five weeks
    2. Freeing up 35 percent of production budgets for reinvestment in more media, online promotions, or direct mail, and
    3. Enabling four to seven marcom staffers per $50 million in marketing spend to perform higher added-value work.
