00:00:00.675 --> 00:00:02.910
Does your website need more languages?

00:00:03.020 --> 00:00:04.070
Maybe.

00:00:04.070 --> 00:00:07.630
But translating everything is
rarely the right first step.

00:00:08.270 --> 00:00:10.510
Language does matter to buyers.

00:00:10.510 --> 00:00:12.770
In a CSA Research survey,

00:00:12.770 --> 00:00:16.370
76% of online shoppers
preferred product information

00:00:16.370 --> 00:00:17.790
in their own language,

00:00:17.790 --> 00:00:21.620
and 40% said they never buy
from sites in other languages.

00:00:22.630 --> 00:00:26.210
But one language done well
beats five done badly.

00:00:26.210 --> 00:00:27.910
Start where you can sell,

00:00:27.910 --> 00:00:29.580
ship and support today.

00:00:30.420 --> 00:00:32.640
In Europe, part of it is required.

00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:36.080
The EU device regulation says
the information supplied

00:00:36.080 --> 00:00:37.440
with a device must be

00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:40.330
in the official language
each member state sets.

00:00:41.010 --> 00:00:42.740
Start with three things.

00:00:42.990 --> 00:00:46.300
One: check where your
inquiries already come from.

00:00:46.310 --> 00:00:50.490
Two: translate the pages
buyers need first: product,

00:00:50.490 --> 00:00:52.120
status and contact.

00:00:52.250 --> 00:00:55.960
Three: have a native
expert review every page.

00:00:56.720 --> 00:00:59.570
Speak your buyers'
language where you sell.
