While working on a marketing research project concerning the automotive industry, a team including Rick
Weaver visited the Detroit International Auto Show. They asked automotive executives and dealers what
they did to reach specific cultures. As if on a script, each respondent said the same thing, "We build and
market our cars for all people."
Rick realized "political correctness" had become a barrier to appreciating the many cultures that flavor the
world. The reality is that cultures are different. It is unrealistic to think that all customers are the same or
that they draw the same conclusion from the same ad. Successful commerce is based on presenting
customers with products and services specific to their needs. Marketing messages should be delivered to
groups in such a way that the message the company wants to deliver is the message that ultimately
resonates with the customer.
Today, MBC Global specializes in building and strengthening bridges between dozens of cultural
distinctions including:
