The target is local-feeling storefronts — and higher local conversion that keeps compounding after we hand the translation & merchandising playbook back to your team.

Translation & merchandising is one of many services we run for growing ecommerce brands. What you do with it is up to you — let's chat.
Frequently asked questions.
What is Translation & merchandising in ecommerce, and what does the service include?+
Translation & merchandising is a services engagement inside our International & Cross-Border practice, focused on weglot · lokalise and local ux merchandising. Every translation & merchandising engagement ships 5 concrete deliverables: Translation pipeline; Local content plan; Merchandising overrides; Local UX review; QA framework. Everything lives in a shared workspace with a weekly build log, so you see progress in real time rather than waiting for a monthly slide deck.
Which ecommerce brands are translation & merchandising services the right fit for?+
Our translation & merchandising service is designed for ecommerce brands ready to expand geographies or channels. If the problem sounds like "a good business trapped in one country or one channel", this engagement is built for it. If you're pre-product-market-fit or under ~$1M in trailing revenue, we'll usually point you to a lighter Sprint or a Diagnostic instead of a full translation & merchandising retainer.
How much does translation & merchandising cost, and what are the pricing tiers?+
Three engagement shapes for translation & merchandising: Sprint (fixed scope, 4–6 weeks — best for a one-question translation & merchandising audit), Partner (quarterly retainer with weekly ship cadence — the most common shape for translation & merchandising), and Advisory (fractional, 6 or 12 months). Nothing performance-based — we've seen that misalign incentives every time. Exact pricing depends on scope; you get a written proposal after the intro call.
How long until we see results from translation & merchandising?+
Market or channel launch inside 90 days. Our target is local-feeling storefronts inside the first quarter of the translation & merchandising engagement, and higher local conversion that stays with your team afterwards.
What are the main benefits of hiring a translation & merchandising agency vs. building in-house?+
Speed and pattern recognition. A dedicated translation & merchandising agency has run the same play across dozens of ecommerce brands, so you skip the 6–12 months of trial-and-error an in-house hire would need. You also avoid fixed headcount cost: the engagement flexes up during launches and down between them.
Who actually runs the translation & merchandising work, and how is it reported?+
A senior operator owns the translation & merchandising account end-to-end. No junior AM behind a dashboard, no offshoring. Reporting is tied to revenue per market, wholesale sell-through and cross-channel margin. Every week we publish a build log with what shipped, what the data said, and the next bet. Every month we run a business review against forecast — no vanity metrics, no cherry-picked screenshots.
