Professional translations need not be expensive!
There is no reason to work on jobs that can be carried out quickly, precisely and cheaply by others. Why waste time on something that others can do much better? Communication is particularly important today, and when doing business across the borders inside and outside of Europe, understanding of other languages and cultures is a big advantage. There are many documents that would make a better impression and be a better service, if they were available in the customer’s or supplier’s own language.
Manuals & functional descriptions - Machinery and equipment has to be delivered with a manual in the users own language by law. This is not only a service from the supplier, but a manual that has been translated into the users own language also minimizes the risk of misunderstandings, which can lead to injuries and damaged equipment.
Brochures & websites - Brochures describe your product and websites are a brilliant means to profile companies and their products. It is an extra service to have brochures and websites available in several languages; thus letting the user choose whatever language he knows best.
Correspondence - It is not always easy to completely understand correspondence regarding sale/purchase, and a foreign language does not make it easier. Have the contents translated into your own language and formulate your answer. Let the “language buffs” translate your answer and be sure to get the right effect.
Press releases & news letters - Advertise for your product and your company through press releases and/or news letters in the press or on your website. This is a quick and easy way to distribute information to a very broad audience.
Presentations - Presentations are an effective tool in a sales situation. They supplement your brochures and your product descriptions. PowerPoint presentations on your laptop always make a good and lasting impression.
