Do All Exporters Use Professional Translation Service Companies?

Though English is spoken widely throughout Germany, it is recommended to publish your content in German to better connect with your German audience.

Some exporters opt to use professional translation services companies, such as EPIC Translations, for publishing accurate translations. Others choose to use software to translate text and documents. The right approach depends on your business goals and the type of content you’re translating. Formal documents, such as product manuals, legal agreements, website copy, and marketing collateral, need accurate translations. Whereas informal content, that’s for in-house use and can tolerate 10% to 12% error rate, is okay to translate with software.

How Can English to German Translation Service Benefit My Company in Germany?

If your company is serious about competing in the German market, then it goes without saying that you will need to communicate in German when it comes to doing business there.

Some companies use in-house employees or in-country distributors to do their translations. Please note that neither of these two options are free of cost. Moreover, internal employees are generally too busy doing their regular job. And in-country distributors very rarely have the necessary human resources to do the translations. But neither of these 2 options are bad, if/when available. Third option that about 95% of exporters use is partnering with a translation services company such as EPIC Translations to complete their translation needs.

Regardless of which of the 3 options you choose to use, there are certain benefits to making sure you have a consistent and reliable English to German translation service. These benefits include, but are not limited to:

  • Maintaining brand consistency
  • Legal compliance
  • Increased customer satisfaction
  • Enhanced employee communication 

Brand Consistency:

EPIC Translations will create a translation memory (TM) to translate text and documents specifically for your company. TM ensures there will be consistency in terminology, tone, and style across all of your content. The end result is that you will be able to communicate with a certain brand consistency in the German market.

Legal Compliance:

Not just in Germany, but maintaining proper legal compliance is of crucial importance in Europe. Legal agreements, Patents, and Regulatory Documents need to be translated correctly and precisely in order to avoid legal problems. And partnering with an experienced translation services company such as EPIC Translations is a sure way to guarantee nothing slips through the cracks when it comes to your company’s legal compliance.

Increased Customer Satisfaction:

Building strong relationships with customers requires effective communication. Businesses can communicate more effectively with their German-speaking customers and increase customer satisfaction and loyalty by implementing contextually accurate German translation services. Customers are more inclined to stick with a brand and recommend it to others when they believe that their needs and expectations are recognized and understood in their native language.

Enhanced Employee Communication:

If you have employees in Germany then maintaining effective communication is critically important. Companies can ensure that staff members are effectively interacting with one another and with their German-speaking colleagues by implementing English to German translation service. This should result in improved collaboration, higher output, and a more cohesive workplace environment.
