In today’s global economy, communicating successfully in different languages and unique cultures is challenging. To maintain visibility worldwide and to connect effectively in any language, including American Sign Language, every aspect of your company must maintain consistency across cultures through messaging, as well as look and feel. In-language documentation and digital content localization allows customers from around the world to easily do business with you, creating trust and loyalty while reducing questions and concerns.
Research confirms that organizations that increase their expenditure on translation services are more likely to:
- Expand into new markets
- Develop greater customer loyalty
- Increase their revenue
A language services provider (LSP) can seamlessly integrate with your business to provide language services just like they were created in-house but without hiring a large multilingual staff. What if you could easily communicate in any language with your employees and customers around the world through centralized language services?
A professional LSP can deliver several solutions to help you globalize, including:
- Interpreting, both over-the-phone and video remote
- Translation and localization of your printed and digital materials
- Training of your bilingual staff
Connecting with the right LSP is imperative. When deciding on an effective partner, look for one that takes the time to become intimately familiar with your company, your products, and the multilingual audiences you serve. Consider asking these questions:
- Can they build a customized solution specifically for you? This results in higher quality, shorter turnaround times, and lower costs.
- Will they be able to deliver exactly what you need, and only what you need?
- Do they have the resources and experience to successfully support all languages and modalities without sacrificing quality, performance, or customer care?
