Re: INFO: Audio Conf - *3 Steps to Successful Translation Management

[Guest guest]

Hmmm... How to get a grip on translation costs... an interesting topic

for translators, right? Well, I am pretty sure FX Translations do grip

those right - the last time they approached me, they offered me an

exorbitant rate of $0.08/source word....

Good Night

Hi, ,

I hesitated to publish this announcement, but I did finally.

Indeed I think that if we want to succeed in this profession, like maybe

in any other one, it is very useful to know what is the strategy of our

competitors, of potential clients - whether direct or not - etc.

It is a very valuable asset.

About the rate they offered you, now I understand why they never

contacted me :-P . It is less than the half of what US agencies pay to me.

But, doesn't it take all kinds to make a world, does it ?

Have a nice day
