Creation of New English Language Text Material
Sometimes the intended impact of a message requires a text to be individually tailored to the target audience. For these more creative assignments, we work from your brief, style guide and instructions, to produce an original piece of text. This source material can be in Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, English or a mixture of these languages.
In this way we help you find the right words in English — to start conversations, drive action, build relationships, give clarity, solve problems, save money or perhaps introduce your brand to the UK market.
We also specialise in creating engaging texts in plain English for a wider audience that does not have English as a first language. This is an often overlooked skill that is particularly important within the tourism industry.

Research & Consultancy Services
By commissioning Lagom Communication to undertake your tourism and outdoor (friluftsliv) industry research assignments, you will be ensuring that the work will be based on an excellent cultural and linguistic understanding of both Scandinavia and the target market – something that could ultimately save you a lot of money in your marketing.
An example of this is a widely circulated report looking, among other things, at how the Swedish tourism sector could attract adventurous families from the UK. The authors of the report erroneously presumed that the school summer holidays in the UK and Sweden were at the same time. In fact, it is traditional for schools in England and Wales to break up for six weeks from the end of July with schools in Scotland normally breaking up a couple of weeks earlier. This is the time when most seasonal tourism operations in Sweden are actually starting to close down for the season. It is unlikely that families with school age children could be encouraged to visit earlier as they risk being fined if they take their children out of school during term time.
- Ben Love has a Master of Research (MRes) degree
- Extensive experience of qualitative and quantitative research methods
- Preparation of bespoke reports
- Extensive cultural and linguistic knowledge of both the Scandinavian and UK tourism and outdoor industries
- Able to function as the UK partner for market research agencies based in Scandinavia
