169% Sales Growth in Portugal, 104% in Finland, 55% in Sweden
Bridging the Language Gap to Drive International Sales


✅ Significant sales growth following language localisation, with results aligning with local English proficiency levels

The Challenge

Muziker, a leading retailer of musical instruments and accessories, aimed to expand its footprint across various European markets. Although the brand already had a strong online presence, sales in some regions remained flat due to language barriers. Customers in non-English-speaking countries struggled to engage with the content, resulting in lower conversion rates and lost revenue opportunities. Muziker required a localisation strategy that could drive sales growth while preserving brand consistency.

Our Solution

Glocco® rolled out a strategic localisation plan to optimise Muziker’s e-commerce platform for new language markets, focusing on three key areas:

✅ Targeted Language Expansion

We translated and adapted Muziker’s e-commerce content, product descriptions, and customer communications into multiple languages, prioritising high-potential growth markets. Cultural nuances were carefully considered to ensure translations resonated with local audiences.

✅ SEO & Discoverability Enhancement

By implementing tailored, localised SEO strategies, we improved Muziker’s visibility in regional search engines—crucial in markets with lower English proficiency where customers rely on native-language search terms.

✅ User Experience Optimisation

Beyond translation, we refined the user experience by localising elements such as currency displays, shipping details, and customer service options, creating a seamless and intuitive shopping journey for each target market.

Impact

The results underscored the power of effective localisation in e-commerce growth:
✔ Portugal – Sales increased by 169.08%, demonstrating the strong impact of localisation in a market with lower English proficiency.

✔ Finland – Sales grew by 104.54%, showing impressive gains even in a moderately English-proficient market.
✔ Sweden – Sales rose by 55.38%, reflecting a steady uplift in a region with higher fluency in English.
