Abstract
Common Sense Advisory defines “transcreation” as a process by which new content is developed or adapted for a given target audience instead of merely translating existing material. It may include copywriting, image selection, font changes, and other transformations that tailor the message to the recipient. We’ve noted a steady increase in the number of inquiries from buyers regarding transcreation services, primarily for projects with a marketing orientation. In this Quick Take, we outline the major characteristics of transcreation and some best practices for obtaining these services.
