Frequently asked questions

Still have manufacturing industry questions? We have answers.

Localization means adapting any of your content, including text, images, messaging to fit different markets and geographies. Content might include anything from physical packaging to a video marketing campaign.

Localization helps manufacturers expand into new markets, comply with regulations, and provide a better experience for customers.

A wide variety of content often needs to be localized, including technical manuals, product labels, marketing materials, websites and more.

Because regulations and technical terms can vary between different markets and geographies, localization expertise can be crucial in helping your operations to adapt smoothly to these potentially unfamiliar markets without any costly problems.

This will depend on many factors but can be strategically defined with the help of market research, business goals, and customer demographics.

Common challenges include navigating language barriers, cultural differences, and regulatory complexities.

Review processes can be built into translation workflows, including translation review, cultural adaptation, and compliance checks.

Translation tools, including content management systems, AI-backed machine translation, and automation can all help streamline the localization process.

Timelines can vary depending on a range of factors, including the volume of words to be translated, complexity of the subject and what languages are needed.

Costs can depend on a range of factors, including which languages are needed, the timescale of the project, and other services such as project management and consulting.

A reliable partner will tend to have a track record of expertise in manufacturing, a wide range of language capabilities, and a track record of success.

Investing in localization can help unlock new markets. Concrete benefits include increased market share, improved customer satisfaction, and enhanced brand reputation.
