Creative Wisdom

Multicultural Creative Myths• American/global brands have to prove how "Asian" they

are.• Brand positioning must be different.• Best to always incorporate rich cultural cues, icons.

Multicultural Creative Facts• Brand reputation and value proposition trump all other

factors.• Brand positioning must not waiver.• Being in multicultural media is the most respectful cultural

message there is.• Multicultural consumers are global consumers – they’re

used to world class advertising and marketing messaging.• Cultural cues and icons must be used sparingly to avoid

look-alike marketing and falling into the "Nostalgia Trap."
