Hi Travis.
Having been brought up on Philip Kotler and International Marketing, he would always say aim you marketing mix at the targeted market.
The right product in the right packaging at the right price in the right place with the right promotional activity at the right time.
Eg if its for the German market, do you put it in english language only ?
Research will tell you what will work for your brand.
