Developing New Markets and New Consumers

Assuming your demographics and channels are already determined, using the power of video andvideo translation brings advertising to a highly focused audience. Count that as a win. But once your message has reached the appropriate audience,  it still has to communicate and ignite them. Accurate and effective translation becomes your lynchpin for converting views into action.

Historically, the consumer’s decision to buy is emotional

Fear:  “The sales-promotion ends tomorrow. I can’t miss out on that discount!”

Pride:  “As an ‘early-adapter’ I understand this product better than most. This purchase makes me look smart.”

These emotional currents are often based on the consumer’s culture. Culture influences family-time, use of leisure time and use of discretionary income. When marketing through video, use of regional accents, on-screen talent and phrasing carry a huge impact on how the product is viewed.

Use of voiceover and subtitles is an effective means for adapting your message for another culture, after the video translation process  is complete.
