The Internet is your gateway to the global market place. Immediately after connecting your website to the World Wide Web, you have access to previously untapped markets. With the right marketing tools and tactics, every company, no matter how small or large, can make its products and services available to millions and millions of potential consumers worldwide.
In this webinar, Chris Raulf, ENLASO’s Marketing Manager, provides insights into the best practices needed for global marketing, including:

- What to translate and localize to reach those markets,
- How to approach your localization project,
- What the pro and cons are of doing-it-yourself vs. working with a localization vendor, and
- How to prepare your website for multi-language Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
Publishing authority and Adobe Community Expert Maxwell Hoffmann, Manager of Consulting and Training Services at ENLASO, rounds out the webinar with a short session on comparing publishing tools that are best suited for localizing multilingual marketing collateral.
