>>80628583To explain this let me use an analogy: do you know why Sony and other ajapnese firms still market their hardware and games to japanese audience almost exclusively to the point where getting some of the games lozalized outside of Japan is a godsend, even though USA drives sales for those comapnies like crazy?
It's because it's unfamiliar territory. Cartoon Network is based off of Europe, most of its subsediaries are in Europe and most of the conutries it broadcasts to are European countries.
What that means is that the marketing departments that being listened to gather the data almost exclusively from Europe. The comapany is literally BLIND to how pupular their prudct is in the US. they could be making 80% of their money there AND THEY WOULDN'T KNOW THAT.
Yes it's retarded, but companies have severe blind spots that can completely cripple their marketing.
