"It’s a rare opportunity that an agency like TAG and a third-party vendor like Translations.com can fit in so well with our in-house team,” said Steve Reichgut, Director of Engineering and Web Operations for Benefit Cosmetics. “The support, partnership, dedication, and commitment to creating a custom solution for our multilingual sites made all the difference in our successful launch.”
“This integration supports a globalized and sophisticated shopping experience," said Anthony Severo, Founder and Chief Strategist at Third & Grove.
