Early in my career, when I was managing the creative development of global campaigns...

My geographical counterparts often pointed out that creative needs to be customized or localized to reflect cultural differences.

Today, as a Global Marking Manager, I wonder if it’s truly possible to create a Global Creative Concept and apply it to all regions around the world.
I think so

For a time I assumed that if the creative concept was headline-driven or provided simple background information, it would be easy to scale to other regions.
I now realize that this is only partially true.

Many factors influence the development
of a creative concept - but the BIG ONE
(the determining factor) for globalizing
creative concept is...

#1:Same products worldwide; one global creative concept.
(with no or minimal regional localization)

The best example is Apple
All products sold world wide without any differences in how they appear

Apple accomplishes this by:
‣Putting products front-and-center
‣ Focusing on how products make life better, using universal examples
‣Minimal localization; generally just translation

Using the CENTRALIZED MODEL, structure your organization with: ‣ A strong headquarters. Apple leads & owns the
development of creative concepts and assets for regions.
‣ A global agency. Headcount is heavy in headquarters and light in geos as the regions tend to focus on marketing executions.

The Hybrid Model is common amongst global companies. I’ll use my company as an example.
The theme for our second-generation Intel Core processor is “Visibly Smart Performance for Your Visual Life”...

We came up with a core set of creative concepts, then localized and translated them for each marketing region.

Using the HYBRID MODEL, structure your organization with:
‣ The headquarters leading initial creative development, then working with marketing regions to localize. *Close collaboration is essential.
‣ Geo expertise and feedback; important for localizing and reflecting cultural uniqueness. Headcount is 50/50 headquarters and geographies.

In China, KFC customers can buy localized products, like a bowl of congee (rice porridge), as well as the Colonel’s famous fried chicken.

Using the LOCAL MODEL, structure your organization with: ‣ Regional control of creative development; little
intervention from headquarters. Regional owns the marketing creative development and execution.
‣ Heavy regional headcount; needed to facilitate marketing of localized products.
