Download or read book Intercultural Communication and International Marketing Corporate Advertising on the Internet written by Natalia Magiati and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2006-01-19 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 2,0, University of Heidelberg, language: English, abstract: This research examines the relevance of intercultural communication for international marketing, focusing on corporate advertising via the Internet. The first chapter outlines the importance of cultural competence in the field of translation by analyzing the role of modern translators as language, culture and information mediators. Reference is also made to a relatively new field of translation, namely localization. Chapter 2 deals with different definitions and concepts of culture, and various approaches concerning which elements comprise it. Furthermore, it analyzes important culture-related terms also influencing intercultural communication, such as language, cultural differences, culture shock, ethnocentrism and stereotypes. The third chapter is devoted to communication, its components, forms and media. Chapter 4 illustrates the significance of intercultural communication by examining different intercultural aspects and concepts, and providing information on a definition and history of the term and on important intercultural communication theorists. Chapter 5 focuses on the phenomenon of globalization, both in cultural and economic terms. The next chapter refers to the significance of communication and culture skills for international managers and to key competences of international management that can be trained. Chapter 7 explores the broad field of marketing, emphasizing corporate identity and the elements comprising it, essential marketing strategies implemented by multinational companies and the international marketing principle “Think global, act local”, indicating how intercultural communication can determine the success of marketing activities. The last part of this chapter approaches the debate “standardization versus differentiation”. Chapter 8 is dedicated to advertising as a form of communication, common advertising strategies illustrated through concrete examples, cultural elements that advertisers should take into consideration and the two variants of international advertising campaigns: standardized versus culture-adapted advertising. The last chapter, after giving an insight into the history of the Internet and its multiple functions, explores its use as an instrument of international marketing communication and public relations, and as an advertising medium, focusing on corporate websites of multinational companies.

Book Intercultural Communication  Globalisation and Advertising  The influence of culture in global advertising campaigns

Download or read book Intercultural Communication Globalisation and Advertising The influence of culture in global advertising campaigns written by Sebastian Plappert and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2010-07-19 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: Distinction, Macquarie University, course: ICOM 821 Intercultural Communication, language: English, abstract: This paper argues that advertising standardisation is only possible when cultures overlap. For this reason, the term of culture has to be captured and defined, before globalisation and its effect on advertising is considered. Then, the paper will investigate how advertising communicates across cultures and point out chances and flaws of Hall’s and especially Hofstede’s approach. By reviewing localised and standardised advertising, finally, a hybrid advertising strategy will be suggested.

Transaction costs in international trade are high--only a stable and firmly established link between business people can enable them to overcome disagreements and conflicts of interest. "Marketing Across Cultures, 4e" uses a successful two-stage cultural approach to explore International Marketing. - A cross-cultural approach which compares marketing systems and local commercial customs in various countries - An inter-cultural approach which studies the interaction between business peoples of different national cultures "I used "Marketing Across Cultures" in courses in five different countries with students from more than 35 nations. The book provides a stimulating view on international marketing issues and at the same time allows in an excellent way to sensitize and train students for intercultural work, which has become the norm for most medium-sized and large companies."

Book The Global Local Paradox in International Advertising  Can Marketing Really Be International

Download or read book The Global Local Paradox in International Advertising Can Marketing Really Be International written by Christina Liessem and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-05 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 74%, Queen Mary University of London (Business School), course: International Marketing Communications, language: English, abstract: The debate around standardization versus adaptation in international marketing consists since nearly half a decade now. Usunier and Lee (2009) believe that international marketing cannot be global and refer to it as intercultural marketing. De Mooij (2010:3) states that people think and act based on their inherent framework, given them by their culture and national belonging. Even if they try to think different, they will still see it out of their own cultural perspective. In de Mooij's opinion this leads to the paradox that people are not able to think global, but furthermore see and judge their world always according to their own framework, even if they might believe they think global. In the marketing context this would mean that international marketing cannot be global. Marketers will always use their own cultural system to create advertising for other cultures, which apparently cannot be successful there. Nevertheless the debate is still in the centre of attention in international marketing. Neither academicians nor practitioners were able to give a coherent answer to the question, if global advertising can be successful or if advertising has to be adapted to local circumstances. Agrawal (1995) points out the waves of changes between adaptation and standardization advertising strategies used by practitioners between the 1950's and the 1980's. Simultaneously, "academicians in contrast have generally been consistent in advocating the adaptation approach and/or the contingency approach" (Agrawal, 1995:44). These results indicate that the global advertising cannot easily be doomed as an unsuccessful strategy. This essay provides a critical review over the debate standardization versus adaptation i

Book Cross Cultural Content Analysis of Advertising from the United States and India

Download or read book Cross Cultural Content Analysis of Advertising from the United States and India written by Niaz Ahmed and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cross-cultural content analysis (which merged traditional content analysis method with semiotic concepts) compared advertising in the United States (a highly individualistic and low-context culture) and India (a highly collectivist and high-context culture). The study examined the characteristics, differences and similarities in advertising strategies and expressions. A stratified random sample of advertisements for consumer products was selected from nationally circulated news magazines and business magazines of each country between January 1993 and December 1994 (Time and Business Week from the United States; India Today and Business India from India). This study found that there were significant differences in the way the two cultures produced advertising messages and that differential cultural values were reflected in their advertising expressions. The findings revealed that the U.S. advertisements utilized direct rhetorical styles, individualistic visual stances, sexual portrayals of women and comparative approaches more often than their Indian counterparts. The Indian ads utilized indirect rhetorical styles, collective visual stances and stereotypical portrayals of women more frequently than did the U.S. ads. The evidence of specific cross-cultural differences suggests that perhaps the proponents of "standardization of international advertising" have promoted an oversimplification. This cross-cultural study suggests that caution should be exercised when considering standardization in advertising and other forms of promotional communication between divergent cultures.

Book International Online Marketing Communication Strategies of Global Players  A Linguistic Study with Special Reference to T Mobile

Download or read book International Online Marketing Communication Strategies of Global Players A Linguistic Study with Special Reference to T Mobile written by Christina Kuttnig and published by . This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2002 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: Sehr Gut, Klagenfurt University, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyse the international online marketing communication strategies of a mobile communications provider that has recently 'gone global' from a linguistic point of view. This field of business has so far operated on a local level; through the merger of various companies operating on a national level to form the global player T-Mobile this has become an international business. The present study will compare the linguistic implementation of T-Mobile's online marketing communication strategies on the corporate as well as two local Internet sites and attempt to filter out possible cross-cultural differences. Since an analysis of all relevant media would deserve more consideration than the purpose and length of this thesis allow, I wish to focus on just one media, the Internet, as this communication channel is exemplar of the 'open-strategy' approach of international marketing communications.
