MEMORIES TO KEEP
MEMORIES TO KEEP
ETERNAL LOVE AS A KEEPSAKE
Harm Rietveld of Dutch craft firm Memories to Keep realised, through beautiful and special encounters with people, that he wanted to support them in their grief process in some way. He discovered that people find it comforting to have something to hold in their hands and developed the LittleWood© wooden urn. The little urn contains a small cavity in which you can keep the ashes or a memento of someone who has passed. Memories to Keep makes lovely products from various natural materials that offer people emotional support following loss or bereavement.
WHAT MEMORIES TO KEEP WANTED
EXCELLENT TRANSLATIONS THAT STRIKE THE RIGHT CHORD
Memories to Keep makes it possible to hold on to memories of loved ones, literally, with well-thought-out products that offer people solace. A subject in which communication is a very sensitive matter and every word is emotionally charged. Exito Vertaalbureau was asked to translate and edit web content and brochure texts in 2019. This request was later expanded to include writing new Dutch texts. Since then, Exito has been privileged to carry out diverse projects, ranging from creative copywriting to the translation of legal texts such as general terms and conditions.
“Exito stands for exchange of ideas, professionalism, commitment and really nice contact!!”
THE APPROACH
NATIVE SPEAKERS ADD NUANCE PERFECTLY
In sensitive subjects such as the one Memories to Keep is involved in, there’s no room for error in the language you use. That might include sentence construction, terminology and empathy in a text or knowledge of the traditions surrounding mourning in a different country. For that reason, Exito works exclusively with native speakers we know are suited to the theme. And who are also aware of cultural aspects in the country of the target language. Only then can you get your unique message across to people in another language.
THE RESULT
A GOOD TRANSLATION THAT SHOWS WE UNDERSTAND THE EMOTION
We’ve come to know Memories to Keep well in recent years. That has led to a very pleasant, durable collaboration. Whether on small, brief texts or longer legal documents, the Exito team knows exactly how to convert the texts into another language so that the client feels good about them. Texts that get the Memories to Keep message across and really touch the customer.
