Why is transcreation such a powerful multilingual content marketing tool?

People love a good story.

Storytelling is one of the most important techniques of content marketing. A customer may not be convinced to buy your product when they see a list of properties, but they sure will trust your company if you tell them a good story.

If you run your business globally, or at least in a few international markets, the quality of your content marketing matters. Transcreation will help you do just that.

 

How is transcreation different from translation or localization?

The goal of translation and localization is to send the same message in many languages. The changes are usually insignificant – the text is adapted but it stays more or less the same in both languages.

Transcreation, on the other hand has a different objective:

  • maintain your brand’s voice
  • preserve the tone of the text
  • create the same effect in all markets.

The difference is that with transcreation, materials may be changed as the copywriter sees fit. They may use different words, a different structure, or cut your text short.

Transcreation offers much more creative freedom than translation or localization to ensure that a text or graphic will be effective in a different culture.

The process here is flexible and focuses more on triggering certain emotions than on preserving the meaning of a certain word.
