About our data sample

We conducted long-form interviews with nine different clients. Depending on the size of the company and the type of project we collaborated on, our point of contact was either a Marketing Manager, Localization Manager/Project Manager, Global Resource Manager, or a member of a Regulatory Team (in the case of pharma companies). The questionnaire consisted of 12 different open questions. In most cases, interviews were conducted face-to-face, which allowed us to understand the context better and ask follow-up questions.

The value of our research

Although we originally envisioned this research as something that we’d use only internally, we soon realized that there are some interesting findings that are worth sharing with the industry. We believe that publishing this data can encourage meaningful conversations and perhaps make us prioritize differently. Only when we exchange knowledge can we keep pushing forward together, as an industry.

At Ciklopea, we try our best to educate our clients and stay true to our people-first approach, which ultimately means prioritizing business relationships and employees’ well-being over profits. Still, one of the most common mistakes we’ve noticed is a logical fallacy that localization costs = translation fees per word.

This is why we decided to write an ebook that explains:

• The dilemma of localization costs vs. localization as an investment
• How to break down localization costs
• Which localization costs are optional
• Which localization costs are inevitable
• How technology can help you decrease localization costs
