Precise application of module concepts earns the most credit. Cite the specific market where adaptation failed or succeeded, since examples carry the analysis in a short essay.
The BUSI 605 Week 6 method, step by step
Read the case for facts, not impressions
List the facts of the case first. Analysis that rests on a misread detail is the most common way case answers lose points.
Name the central problem
State the main problem in one sentence. Many cases contain several issues; the strongest answers say which one drives the rest.
Apply the course framework
Bring the course material to the case: the framework, theory or principle the week covers, applied explicitly to the facts you listed.
Weigh the options
Lay out two or three realistic options, with the benefit and the cost of each. Graders look for judgment, which means showing what you rejected and why.
Recommend and justify
Make a clear recommendation supported by sources (The case and Geringer), with the first steps of implementation.
Answer every question asked
If the case comes with questions, answer each one under its own heading, in order, within At least 500 words.
Identify the main decision in the case and evaluate it with a module concept. For marketing cases, separate what should stay global (brand identity, quality standards) from what should adapt (language, product features, price points), and support the split with evidence from the case and the module. If the case involves translation or symbolism, explain what went wrong in the local context and how local testing of the campaign could have caught it before launch.

Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
The company decided to standardize its advertising worldwide to save costs, but a slogan that worked at home translated poorly in two markets. The module explains that standardization saves money while adaptation fits local culture. A middle path, a global brand with locally adapted messages, would have captured both benefits.
