Hoogstraten lives on horticulture, trade and a shopping centre that draws customers from the Netherlands. So two markets, with different habits. A site that takes that into account gets more out of it than a site written only for the local municipality.
Twenty minutes from Weelde. Also a good fit for businesses that sell on both sides of the border.
In Hoogstraten, horticulture, wholesale, construction, retail and hospitality sit close together, and a good share of the customers come from the Netherlands. That calls for something other than a standard site: different keywords, different expectations around prices and delivery, sometimes a separate page per market.
For businesses selling to Dutch companies, the VAT rules come into it too. Spell that out clearly on your site and you get fewer questions and faster decisions.
I write and advertise for Belgian and Dutch customers, and I can hear the difference between the two.
Dutch, French, Portuguese and English. Handy when your team or your customers are mixed.
Twenty minutes' drive. I come by rather than call.
Yes. That's more than a translation: different keywords, different examples and clarity about VAT and delivery.
Yes. That's usually about B2B: a clear site, good product pages and an enquiry process that moves quickly.
We can. Campaigns then run separately per country, with their own copy and their own budget, so you see what each market brings in.
Half an hour in Hoogstraten. We look at which market brings in the most and what that takes.
