Glopal’s international shipping creates a seamless and simple process, enabling merchants to ship their products overseas at a cost effective rate, as well as offering tax and duty calculations and global returns to create a truly localised buyer experience.

What potential increase in business should a merchant expect?

Google Shopping is a popular buyer tool in many countries but UK is very competitive. Other european countries can have Cost Per Clicks that are 5 to 7 times cheaper than the UK. Glopal offers easy access to those markets with a fully automated solution. Merchants will also find that they gain access to new buyers that they wouldn’t have had before.

On average Glopal’s customers see a sales increase of 32% within 30 days through international shopping campaigns. Within the first 3 months, merchants see not only consistent international sales growth through their google shopping, but also an increase in organic traffic to their website and greater global brand exposure.

Case study: PriceRightHome

Started in 2004, PriceRightHome is a leading online retailer of bedroom accessories and kids bedding. They first started using Webinterpret 7 years ago with their eBay localisation solution which was responsible for a lot of their international growth.

The company decided to launch their Magento online store internationally and installed Glopal’s translation and Google Shopping solution. They now sell their products in 10 different markets, with their international sales growing by 130% after their first 3 months.

“After signing up to Glopal, our shopping campaigns almost immediately saw an uplift in sales, where our international sales went from being 5% to 50% of our total sales.“
