Marketing translation services

Marketing translation services are applicable for every business small or big that has multinational operations. The process of marketing is one of the most important aspects for
achieving success in business. The businesses with strong and more targeted marketing
strategies mostly are successful in achieving their targets.

In the modern times when businesses have gone global the marketing strategies have to be made considering the local culture, traditions and trends in specific country. Following these aspects its very obvious that the brochures, advertising banners, television ads, websites, flyers, white papers and other marketing tools need to be translated correctly into local languages for making the marketing campaign more effective for gaining expected results.

The marketing translation services need to be articulate in the translation of the marketing information so as to highlight the basic idea in a style suitable to the culture of the specific country.

The translators or the companies providing marketing translation services have to make their clients aware about how they could be misunderstood if the marketing material is simply translated word to word without giving appropriate attention to the message that is given by the text after translation.

For e.g. one of the well-known car manufacturing brand introduced one of their new models in the Latin American market where Spanish language has domination. The name of the model included the noun “Nova” in it. The company was un informed that ‘no va’ in Spanish means ‘it won’t go’.

In another example a multinational chicken brand translated their punch line plainly from English to Chinese with out taking care of the meaning it would acquire after such translation. The punch line explained that the chicken of the brand is finger licking tasty. The translated statement resulted saying the persons eating the brand chicken have to eat away their fingers.

In one campaign the word tonic water after translation in target language meant it to be toilet water. A soft drink giant’s punch lines improper translation created misunderstanding in China as the phrase in English ‘come alive with ___’ gave a statement saying that the dead ancestors would become alive after drinking the soft drink. These examples can make it very clear how the translator providing marketing translation services need to be careful about maintaining the intended meaning of phrases or names. Also it emphasizes that the duties of a professional translator is not limited to translation alone but also creating awareness about the product or services.

The marketing field of modern times has new medias like Internet for marketing products or services. These new ways of marketing also require marketing translation services for areas like creating multilingual websites, selecting multilingual keywords for search engine optimization and translation of emails for viral marketing. The multilingual websites helps to reach a bigger market globally thus creating more opportunities of business in a highly competitive world.
