How can retailers support consumers, from around the globe, throughout their buying journey?

Let’s quickly go on a journey… a customer journey through an eCommerce website.

Consider the buyer who visits your website or mobile application. They browse hundreds (or thousands!) of SKUs, use filters to narrow down their selections, and are swept off their feet by thoughtful imagery and romance copy. The product name, description, and instructions for care are considered; then the consumer makes a choice. Add to basket and purchase? Check. ✔️

Now it's time to fulfill the order, starting with an email confirmation, and enrollment into drip marketing campaigns.

The customer journey, from intent to purchase, isn't as pretty behind the scenes. And adding localization into the mix adds a whole new layer of complexity to this process. It begs the question: how do you scale your entire eCommerce website or mobile application from one language to another without adding delays to market, additional people to manage the process, and at a rate of return that doesn’t exceed the initial investment?

Why localization for eCommerce is important - and challenging.

Localizing content is obviously important: a person has to understand what they're buying, and can only do so if the content is in their native language. But how consumers make decisions, and the access they have to products and services is digital-first. We've seen:

  • Increased competition for market share
  • Multiplying consumer touchpoints, distribution options and support requirements
  • Fast-changing product inventory
  • The demand for each product is different, but there’s no way to easily adjust translation cost for each SKU
