1 - Multilingual Marketing Lifecycle
The multilingual marketing lifecycle is the broad process of selecting marketing content and campaign assets, sending them out for translation, and then receiving the translated content back from the translation provider.
This set of steps usually fits inside a larger, more general process called the content lifecycle, which is the process of creating, reviewing, editing, approving, and publishing content.
Together, this enhances your focus on key localization considerations, improves workflows, and keeps all content stakeholders involved. Combined, this creates your Global Content Marketing strategy, which is used to engage customers in every region you do business.
2 - How the Lionbridge App Helps You Manage Your Multilingual Marketing Lifecycle
The Lionbridge App for Oracle Eloqua (App) is a plug-in module for Eloqua. It provides a range of features and user interface enhancements in Oracle Eloqua that enable you to select, send, monitor, and retrieve content for translation into any language Oracle Eloqua supports.
These features automate the process, which dramatically reduces the effort and time required to export and re-import content that needs to be localized. This is very helpful when translating large volumes of content or ensuring that translated content is quickly re-imported to meet deadlines.
When you use the Lionbridge App, you manage your multilingual marketing lifecycle entirely from within Oracle Eloqua:
- The Lionbridge App exports your content from Oracle Eloqua in XML format and delivers these content files to the Clay Tablet.
- The Clay Tablet delivers your content to your translation providers, based on routing rules that your company chooses and the Lionbridge Connector Team implements.
- When the translated content is ready, the Clay Tablet retrieves it from your translators and delivers it to the Lionbridge App.
- The Lionbridge App automatically re-imports the content into the correct location in Oracle Eloqua.
You can then review, revise, reject, or approve the translated content as needed.
Note: Neither the Lionbridge App nor the Clay Tablet performs any translation. Similarly, the Lionbridge Connector Team does not provide any translation services. Your company chooses the translation provider that performs the translation.
