Why every team that wants to achieve global success should start using translation tools
While the world is becoming more and more international by the minute, accessing global markets has never been so easy. New businesses are popping up every day, taking your local market share and your customers.
Creating a global business sounds pretty straightforward on paper, but the reality is much harsher. Most businesses struggle to reach customers beyond their borders and create strong brand awareness in a foreign market. What is a winning strategy in one country might not work everywhere.
When putting a global strategy this way, it sounds pretty daunting, right?
There is one proven method you can use that will make you get ahead of the competition in your global expansion: start translating your content into multiple languages. But don’t translate it manually, copy pasting from online machine translation apps. Start using Translation tools such as a CAT translation tool. But forget about the complicated, out-of-date CAT tools out there and meet Catapult – a cloud based and easy to use tool that anyone can use.
Researchers from Harvard Business School have found a strong correlation between in-language content and the likelihood that a consumer will make a purchase. 72.4% of consumers said they would be more likely to buy a product with information in their language and 56.2% of consumers said that the ability to obtain information in their language is more important than price.
- 9 out of 10 Internet users said that they always choose a website in their language over a website in a foreign language.
- 20% of Europeans have never even browsed in a language other than their own, and 42% said they never purchase products or services in other languages.
Taking into account that most Europeans are multilingual, those results are pretty groundbreaking! Even if people speak a foreign language, The only way of being successful is to speak the language of your customers.
Businesses often assume that English is the language of the world and that it will work in every new market. With only 20% of all internet users being native English speakers, this assumption is wrong. In most cases, those that visit the web speak English very poorly or not at all. The level of English in a lot of very exciting and big emerging markets like Russia, China, and Indonesia is generally quite poor, so consumers will avoid a website that is not in their local language.
By the time you enter a new market, you should already know how to think, speak and operate as a successful local business in that country. Researchers at Stanford University have concluded that advertising that includes polite language and words invoking cultural tradition or authority increases online sales in cultures like that of Japan.
One of the biggest mistakes companies make in this area is lacking cultural understanding.
Western businesses often think they can enter new markets and dictate cultural terms and consumer expectations. There are a lot of historic examples in which companies have lost millions of dollars and ruined their reputation when entering new markets due to language barriers.
One such example is the case of American Motors, which named its Puerto Rican entry car the Matador. Matador refers to a bullfighter in English, while in Spanish, it also means “killer”.
Lucky for you, we are here to help you connect to your customers without needing to hire a translation agency.
