With Black Friday just around the corner, is your webshop ready for the busiest shopping season of the year? 🖤📈 Creativ Company is a prime example of how a localised webshop can transform your results – they achieved an impressive 94% increase in conversion rate with 29 adjustments to their German site! 🇩🇪✨ How did they do it? By investing in a comprehensive Site Check that analysed every detail of their webshop to ensure it was perfectly tailored to their target market. From product descriptions to payment options, everything was adapted to make customers feel comfortable and understood – a smart move that has clearly paid off. Here’s what Creativ Company gained: ❤️ Increased trust and credibility: Customers feel more welcome when the language, layout, and design align with local preferences. 🛒 Enhanced user experience: A webshop tailored to local expectations makes it easier for customers to find what they need and complete their purchase. 🎨 Competitive edge: By localising their webshop, Creativ Company stands out from competitors, attracting customers who might have otherwise chosen another provider. Creativ Company’s case shows how a localisation strategy that resonates with the local market truly delivers.

The biggest e-commerce conference in Copenhagen is well underway - and we are happy to welcome clients and visitors to our booth 49 👋🏼🍬 This morning, we heard Bang & Olufsen and Pandora discuss how they manage to balance brand identity while expanding. This is something we work with on a daily basis and we were happy to hear that both brands put a lot of focus on adapting to local cultures - although with slightly different approaches: 🌍 Bang & Olufsen shared how strong brand guidelines and a creative team works towards creating campaigns that are not only on brand but also resonate across markets, while 🌍 Pandora pride themselves on speaking in local language towards each market - and therefore often is mistaken for a local brand 🎉 Thank you to both Carolin Dalsgaard & Katharina Hanke for an insightful session ⭐️ Next up is our very own Max Riis Christensen on green stage 💪🏼
