Success in any language is still just that: SUCCESS! It's key that we all remember as marketers and world citizens alike, not to forget that today, more than ever, industries and markets are becoming global.
I was actually just at the bank today here in South Korea and the teller was showing me graphs and projections about the performance of Bank of America and how it has affected the banking industry in South Korea. For those of you not familiar, South Korea is a tiny peninsula of land with one of the fastest growing economies in the world.
Today, more than ever, as most the non-English speaking countries of the world struggle to learn the language of business, it's important for us westerners/native English speakers to do our part in reaching out as well.
As our international community of entrepreneurs continues to expand, it's imperative that our focus widens to include all nations- fortunate and not alike. For if we don't, the swift hand of innovation always doubles back. Our charge as marketers is greater than just increasing our down-lines; it is essentially threading nations together under one unified goal: Success.
Hope to see you all at the top!
