A couple of weeks ago I got a phone-call from Danae, she was asking me about a quote for the translation of her website.
I am always happy to receive such phone-calls especially when they are referrals, which means that a client or a colleague of mine told Danae I might be a good match for her.
When I clicked on her website I knew I wanted to do that job.
Danae had done a great job herself in putting together images and words describing what she had to offer, that is an astonishing villa on an idyllic island.
Be like Danae:
1. take care of the visual
took some great pictures; create a visual impact. If you are not particularly good as a photographer, find a professional to carry out this task for you. Pictures play a very important role in the buying process, be it a good or a service. The potential client needs to see that you care enough for what you have to offer;
2. take care of your message
choose words that really mean something to you and put them together nicely, avoid worn-out expressions, create a clear message. If you are not particularly good at writing, find a pro to do this job for you, not only you will gain the respect of your clients but the process of translation as well as the translation itself will work wonders
3. trust your translator
do a research and find a professional that inspires you, send a request for quote and give your translator a chance to do a great job for you. Be sure that if your project meets the above criteria, the translator will magic for you.
