✅ Zoom.us

Project Overview

Zoom.us sought a skilled German copywriter capable of refining their web presence to resonate more authentically with the German market. The goal was to adapt the existing web copy not just linguistically but culturally, ensuring it met the expectations of professionalism and clarity valued in German professional settings.

Challenge

The primary challenge lay in editing and translating Zoom's web copy to not only reflect technical accuracy but also engage a broad, non-technical German audience. The task required a delicate balance: making complex functionalities accessible and appealing to users from all walks of life, while adhering to the nuances of German culture and language.

Solution

Through an intensive week-long collaboration with Zoom, I meticulously translated and enhanced their web content. This process involved a thorough cultural and linguistic adaptation of their existing materials, focusing on achieving a professional tone that seamlessly conveyed technical information in an engaging manner. Key areas of improvement included microcopy, UX copy, and sales copy, ensuring each element was perfectly tailored to the German-speaking audience's expectations.

Results | Learnings | Impact

The project concluded successfully within the ambitious timeframe of one week, from initiation on Monday to completion by Friday. Zoom was exceptionally pleased with the outcome, achieving a web presence that authentically speaks to their German target market. The engagement underscored the importance of cultural sensitivity in localization efforts, highlighting how nuanced adjustments in language and tone can significantly enhance user experience and engagement in a specific market.
