1 Identify your purpose

Before you start designing your communication, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve. What is the main goal of your message? Who are you trying to reach? What do you want them to think, feel, or do after reading your communication? Having a clear purpose will help you focus your communication design and avoid unnecessary or confusing information.

I think when looking at a global/international audience, communication design should be simple to understand across all demographics. When done well, the global audience is able to gather all the information from one visual, with no need for explanation. Therefore, generic infographics that cut across cultures would work better than those that are known to a specific audience.

2 Research your audience

To communicate effectively with international audiences, you need to understand their needs, preferences, and expectations. You need to research their cultural values, communication styles, language proficiency, and technical knowledge. You also need to consider their context, such as their location, time zone, device, and accessibility. By researching your audience, you can tailor your communication design to suit their characteristics and avoid potential misunderstandings or offense.

3 Choose your medium

The medium is the channel or format that you use to deliver your message, such as email, video, podcast, or infographic. The medium you choose will affect how your communication design is perceived and received by your audience. You need to choose a medium that is appropriate for your purpose, audience, and content. For example, if you want to explain a complex concept to a diverse audience, you might use a video with subtitles and visuals, rather than a text-heavy document.

4 Organize your content

The content is the information and data that you want to convey to your audience. The content needs to be organized in a logical and coherent way, so that your audience can follow your message and find the key points. You need to use a clear structure, such as an introduction, body, and conclusion, and use headings, subheadings, and transitions to guide your audience. You also need to use appropriate language, tone, and style, and avoid jargon, slang, or idioms that might confuse or alienate your audience.

5 Design your visuals

The visuals are the images, graphics, colors, fonts, and layouts that you use to enhance your message and attract your audience's attention. The visuals need to be consistent with your purpose, content, and medium, and support your communication design goals. You need to use visuals that are relevant, clear, and appealing, and avoid visuals that are distracting, misleading, or inappropriate. You also need to be aware of the cultural meanings and associations of your visuals, and avoid visuals that might offend or misrepresent your audience.

6 Test and revise

The final step of communication design is to test and revise your communication before you send it to your audience. You need to check your communication for accuracy, clarity, completeness, and effectiveness, and make sure that it meets your purpose and audience's needs. You also need to test your communication with a sample of your audience, or someone who represents them, and get their feedback. You need to revise your communication based on the feedback, and improve your communication design until you are satisfied with the results.
