Business Courses for Translators

A short course that takes you from ‘there are too many options!’ to an actual shortlist of people you want to contact.

You’ve decided to run a marketing campaign but this initial preparation step of figuring out who you want to contact can become a huge stumbling block. In this mini-course I’ll show you how to narrow down your search, identify the key factors you need to consider when selecting companies and determine what’s not important so you can avoid second-guessing yourself. We also cover how to track down useful contact details. Further details here.

A two-part course taking you through everything you need to know to run a successful direct marketing campaign. Part one explains the direct marketing strategy and what your potential clients really want. You’ll discover how to create compelling offers, write sales letters and encourage responses to win new clients and gain a deeper understanding of your target market.

Part two is all about the implementation: Send out your marketing materials, put theory into practice as you handle different responses and follow up effectively with your contacts. We look at long-term relationship building to keep in touch with your dream clients so that you’re the person they contact for their next translation project.
