By co-developing the technology with ContentBot, the companies have addressed one of the biggest pain points of cross-border trade. With LianLian Global’s product launcher, LianLian Global customers can create compelling product descriptions, landing pages, and digital ads for cross-border sales. In addition, the AI-enabled product launcher will translate content for the various regions where online merchants sell, accelerating the time-to-market so that they launch new products on online marketplaces and their sites to buyers worldwide in multiple languages.
Marketing across borders remains a challenge that can impact a seller’s bottom line. Forrester Research shows that 50% of sales are lost because customers cannot find the information they are looking for on ecommerce sites. Additionally, another research study of global consumers found that 65% of customers prefer content in their native language, and 40% will not buy in another language.
With this partnership, LianLian Global addresses the difficulties and language barriers associated with launching products internationally and in new markets, driving the growth and expansion of cross-border trade.
“We are delighted to announce LianLian Global’s investment in ContentBot. This will enable us to provide the most integrated AI copywriting service available to ecommerce sellers and merchants,” says David Messenger, Executive Chairman at LianLian Global. “The investment signals our ambitions to become the world’s most integrated cross-border payments growth partner for ecommerce sellers. The LianLian Global Growth Studio will provide us with the unique ability to provide value-add services to help sellers with cross-border expansion during demanding times.”
