the trouble spot 问题点

I can't agree with you,because we used the same agency forboth the Japanese and U.S campaigns,and the campaigns were very similar---but response was 40% higher in Japan.
在日本和美国,我们用的是同一家广告代理商,广告活动极为相似,结果在日本方面的销售额提高了40%。

i can't agree with you,because
I am sorry,but I disagree with you.
I am afraid I disagree with you.
I would agree with you,except for one thing.

I'll tell you what I think the trouble is .they used visuals and music to convey an overall image,but did not say much about the product.Japanese are accustomed to this type of advertising ,but Americans tend to want more information from ads.
我来告诉你问题是什么,日本的广告商使用图像和音乐传达商品信息,而对产品讲解很少。日本习惯这种广告的方式,而美国人愿意从广告中获得更多的信息。

I am not accustomed to the climate here.
i have to get accustomed to the climate here.

JUst a minute,please,Do you mean that the same advertising strategy is not good?
等一下,您是说用相同的广告策略不好,是吗?

this is interesting ,but let us get back to the main issue.

you seem to be getting off the point.您似乎脱离主题了
