Unleash your international sales potential with the power of localization

Our first talk was given by our UK Senior Sales Executive, Craig McKinnon, and covered Webinterpret’s approach to simplified international listing through listing localization.

Translation is the simple changing of words and phrases from one language to another, but it does not take into account the cultural differences that exist between different groups of people across the globe, and the international markets that they wish to sell on.

Localization includes the process of translation, and so much more. The objective of ecommerce localization is to give international buyers an online shopping experience that is no different from their normal native experience. To put it plainly, buyers always prefer to shop on marketplaces that are in their own domestic language and currency.

Webinterpret’s cutting-edge eBay solution uses advanced proprietary natural language processing to automatically localize listings for marketplace sellers across the globe, and increase their international visibility and sales.

The presentation covers:

• The power of listing localization;
• How proprietary natural language processing works to enhance your listings;
• Webinterpret’s full suite of international selling tools;
  Overview of the European Sales Booster Program (ESB) for eBay sellers;
• eBay Promoted Listings with Webinterpret.

eBay Open UK Event Highlights

Representatives from our marketing, partnerships, product and sales teams were present on-site in Manchester to engage with eBay sellers and document the experience. Here’s what Craig had to say:

I spoke to so many existing clients, who by the way absolutely love Webinterpret and the value we bring to their business. From 11am until 4pm we were inundated with sellers. It was brilliant letting eBay sellers know what we can do for them.
