The challenge

The company was at a crossroads in its growth strategy on YouTube. Despite its popularity and a strong mission to address urban overcrowding through smart design, the company faced challenges in growing and engaging non-English-speaking audiences. The financial and logistical burden of translating and dubbing years’ worth of content (over 250 videos) into multiple languages was an obstacle to further growth.

This both broadened their viewer base and marked the beginning of an exciting journey to connect and promote sustainable living ever more globally. Looking forward, Never Too Small are enthusiastic about expanding their reach further by dubbing their content into languages like German, Hindi, Japanese, and Chinese, and embracing a truly international audience.
