PR & marketing translations with impact

Translate marketing texts effectively – so that your messages really get across

The best claim, copy text or editorial content are all worth nothing if the translated advertising message is not properly understood in the target country. That’s why at the translation agency tolingo, we work with native-speaker experts in marketing translation to ensure that your message resonates with your international audience. With a keen sense of flair (and artificial intelligence), we create translations that reach your customers all over the world.

Why tolingo

Translations that excite –
by native speakers

Marketing translations must be adapted to the target group in the respective culture. That’s why, at tolingo, we work exclusively with native-speaker specialist translators who live in the respective country of the target language – this is how authentic, effective and high-quality translations are created. And where it adds value, our highly specialised artificial intelligence provides support.

Effective messages –
for new target markets

From social media posts, to information flyers, to your own website, you can reach existing and potential customers even more effectively when you use the right approach. We translate your messages with sensitivity, adapt them to the language habits of your international target group and incorporate your corporate wording. If you wish, a second specialist translator proofreads and adds the final polish to the text.

International content –
true to the original layout

Perfectly designed marketing materials win over your customers and encourage them to act. If desired, our specialists can insert the translated text directly into the original document’s layout. And that’s possible for numerous programmes, including Adobe Acrobat, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Keynote, PowerPoint, Quicksilver, Quark Express, Framemaker, Dreamweaver and many more.

Effective translations for international marketing –
we speak your customers’ languages

The perfect marketing translation is just as effective as the message contained in the source language. It is complete, correct and – most importantly! – adapted to the language habits of the target group. We therefore work exclusively with qualified, native-speaker translators who live in the country of the target language, understand the culture and linguistic nuances inside out and have had many years of experience translating marketing, PR and advertising texts. Our artificial intelligence is highly specialised and provides support where it adds real value.

The most popular choice for marketing translations is our Premium bundle: Two native-speaker translators create an effective and impactful translation – one translates, while the other corrects and takes care of the linguistic finishing touches. Our AI package (100% machine translation) and our Smart solution (a combination of AI and human translation) are particularly suitable for larger volumes of text, for example, product descriptions for online shops.

AI

Fast and focused on the essentials. Our artificial intelligence translates your texts, experienced translators check to see if the core information has actually been translated correctly and make improvements to the text if necessary.

What is important when it comes to a marketing translation?

In marketing translations, in addition to a complete and correct translation, it is particularly important that the message of the source text also has an impact on the international target group. A lot of information is hidden between the lines in advertising copy. Sayings and linguistic stylistic devices (e.g. alliteration in claims or slogans) cannot be adopted one-to-one. Therefore, marketing texts should always be linguistically and culturally adapted to the language habits of the recipients during translation.
How much does a marketing translation cost?

For marketing translations, we recommend our Premium bundle with a word price starting at 19 cents. A specialist native-speaker translator handles the translation, another expert corrects and revises it from a stylistic point of view. With a great deal of sensitivity and experience, we create translations that effectively convey your messages (and everything written between the lines) into the target language, so that you can reach your international customers.

For large amounts of text or factual content (e.g. product data for online shops or press releases), an AI translation starting at 6 cents per word can also deliver high-quality translations in the shortest possible time. With our Smart solution starting at 11 cents per word, we combine the advantages of human translation and machine translation: Where it adds value, our AI manages the translation; our native-speaker specialist translators do everything else.
How long does a marketing translation take?

The delivery time for marketing translations depends (as with any translation) on the order size. As soon as we know the volume of your translation, we will give you a guaranteed delivery date in our quotation. Thanks to our well-established procedures and efficient processes, we handle all translation projects quickly anyway; for smaller orders, you’ll often receive the translation within 1-2 working days. And if it’s really urgent, you can choose our Express or Super-Express option. Then we shift up a gear and deliver even faster.
Which marketing texts can I have translated?
We translate all types of marketing texts, including:

Blog posts

Company presentations

Flyers, catalogues & posters

Online shops

Press releases

Websites

Whitepapers

and much more...

No matter what kind of text or marketing material, we can translate your messages and adapt them linguistically for your international target group. Our goal: Your message should work – in any language.
Can I have marketing texts translated into the original layout?

We are happy to produce your marketing translation using the original file’s layout. Particularly with graphic advertising materials such as flyers, posters or online banners, it is not only the content that counts but also the appearance. With layout adaptation, our graphics experts will integrate the translation into the original document’s design, and place every word in the right place.

Regardless of the file format, our specialists will ensure that your marketing texts are optimally translated and returned to you in a well-designed format. We work with many programmes, including Adobe Acrobat, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Keynote, PowerPoint, Quicksilver, Quark Express, Framemaker and Dreamweaver.
