Copy That Persuades Locally
Marketing & Advertising Translation
A slogan translated word for word usually stops being a slogan. Locstars provides marketing translation services and transcreation for brands and agencies—rebuilding campaigns, taglines, and content so they persuade in the target culture instead of merely surviving the language change. Native copy-minded linguists work from your brand guidelines, adapting tone, humor, and imagery for each market across Arabic and 10+ languages.
Marketing Content We Adapt
Transcreation: When Translation Isn’t Enough
Headlines, puns, and emotional hooks rarely cross languages intact. Transcreation starts from your creative brief rather than your sentence structure: we keep the intent and the impact, then write copy a native reader would swear was born in their language—with rationale notes so you can approve confidently.
One Brand Voice Across Arabic Dialects
Gulf, Egyptian, and Levantine audiences respond to different registers, and Modern Standard Arabic plays a different role again. We help you pick the right variety per channel and market, then hold your brand voice steady across all of them using style guides and approved-terminology lists.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between marketing translation and transcreation?
Marketing translation stays close to the source while adapting tone; transcreation rewrites from the creative brief to reproduce the effect. Slogans and headlines usually need transcreation, while body copy often needs skilled translation.
Can you keep our brand voice consistent across languages?
Yes. We build a localized style guide and terminology list from your brand guidelines, and the same linguist team stays on your account for continuity.
Do you localize for specific Arab markets?
Yes. We adapt copy for Gulf, Egyptian, Levantine, and other audiences—choosing dialect or Modern Standard Arabic based on channel, audience, and campaign goals.
Can you adapt SEO keywords along with the copy?
Yes. Rather than translating keywords literally, we adapt them to the terms people actually search in the target language, so localized pages can rank as intended.
Do you handle video and audio marketing content?
Yes. Our multimedia team provides voiceover, dubbing, and subtitling, so a full campaign—script to screen—can be localized in one place.
