Whether it's currencies, languages, logistics, or availability, we'll help you navigate the challenges and set your business up for success. 🚀💡


📈 Catalog Models: Options for Success 📈

Klaviyo offers powerful integration with major eCommerce platforms, automatically synchronizing products from the integrations catalog. While this is great for single-market catalogs, we'll explore custom catalogs for multi-market endeavors. You have two primary options for custom catalogs:


Option 1) The Localized Product Model

- Each product is split into localized versions for different markets.

- Products have unique IDs (e.g., KLAVIYO-TSHIRT1_US, KLAVIYO-TSHIRT1_UK, KLAVIYO-TSHIRT1_DE).

- Pros: Utilizes Klaviyo's product block functionality, specific inventory and availability, powers localized recommendations.

- Cons: Requires customized events, separate campaigns/flows for each market.


Option 2) The Localized Attribute Product Model

- All localization data is stored within a single product using localized attributes.

- Pros: No need for multiple localized products, global recommendations, no custom events.

- Cons: Inventory management may be challenging, all data in one feed, may require custom product blocks.


Option 3) The Localized Attribute Product Model using JSON Objects

- Similar to Option 2 but uses escaped JSON blobs for attribute storage.

- Pros: Easily add new markets, dynamically reference localized attributes in templates.

- Cons: Similar to Option 2 cons, may become cumbersome with more regions added.


🔎 How to Localize a Klaviyo Template with Product Data 🔍

To implement localization, use Klaviyo's `{% catalog lookup tag %}` to build your product data with the appropriate localized attributes. Depending on your chosen model, you can effortlessly render the correct product details for each market within your email templates.


🌟 Bonus Tip: Adding Localized Availability to the Feed 🌟

With a single product model, you might wonder how to manage availability for different regions. Fear not! We'll show you how to use categories as tags to filter products for specific markets. This way, you can ensure only relevant products are displayed in your campaigns.
