This white paper discusses cycle time - the time it takes to localize, publish, and track digital marketing content globally. The paper summarizes a survey that found large variations in companies' cycle times, from 2 weeks to 8 weeks. It argues that shorter cycle times are important for SEO, engaging with current events, and communicating with customers in their own languages. The two main causes of long cycle times are identified as having separate localization and web production vendors, and not using a digital asset management system. The paper recommends streamlining content execution through a single vendor and using a DAM system to improve cycle time performance.
