How do you improve corporate communications?

Improving corporate communications requires strategic work around messaging, channels and processes to ensure that information reaches the right target audiences with the right content at the right time. For international companies, this also includes ensuring consistent communication across languages and cultures through professional translation.

How do you develop a clear communication strategy?

Start by defining your communication objectives and target audiences. What should the communication achieve and whom should it reach? Develop core messages that clearly articulate the company’s position and value. Create a linguistic style guide that ensures consistent tone of voice, coherent language and clear visual identity across all communication channels. For international companies, the style guide should be adapted for each market with consideration for cultural differences.

Ensure quality by working with process

If you have a clear communication strategy and have chosen your content and channels with care, it’s time to ensure the highest quality by quality-assuring your communication process. Start by implementing a review process where at least two people check all important communication before publication. This is equally important with translated communication, where a partner that follows ISO quality standards uses the four-eyes principle to ensure both linguistic accuracy and that messaging and tone are preserved. Measure and follow up on communication effectiveness by analysing communication KPIs : reach, engagement and impact on business objectives. A translation partner with ISO-certified system support offers copywriters for strategic communication, translation with the four-eyes principle in accordance with ISO standards, style guides for consistent communication, a validation platform for efficient review and advisory services on communication strategy.
