In addition, the aim is to obtain information on the characteristics and elements of culture specific to Japan, and to examine the impact of Japanese culture on marketing communications. Culture, which is a very broad topic, includes people’s lifestyles, ways of behavior, attitudes, beliefs, values and norms, systems of thinking and learning, and traditions transmitted from generation to generation. Elements of culture influence marketing communications and the marketing strategy which is used by salespeople to effectively increase sales.
