## Background: 'Three Challenges' Hindering Global Brand Operations
For a global brand, marketing and brand management across countries and regions are essential for the headquarters (HQ) and local bases to build constructive consensus and achieve growth in each country and region while leveraging scale.
However, many companies face the following challenges, making it difficult for global brands to grow.
- Lack of Common Customer Understanding
Reporting begins and ends with result indicators (financial indicators) such as sales and market share, failing to see the customer psychology in local markets at the same resolution as in the domestic market.
- Lack of Common Brand Metrics
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) differ by country, making it impossible to compare and manage the brand's health status side-by-side on a global scale.
- Lack of a Common Language
Because there is no common language, cognitive discrepancies occur with English-speaking local members, taking up a lot of time for communication.

'9segs for Global' realizes consistent brand management across countries and regions by combining technology, data, and specialized know-how, based on the framework '9segs®' that has a solid track record in Japan.
