What A Language Translation Service Can Do For You

By: Anna Woodward

The world of business is getting smaller, and doing business overseas is a must. Even small, local businesses find themselves dealing with customers and clients abroad. These days, you have to do business with the non-English speaking world.

English is definitely the international language of business, but still less than 1/3 of the world can speak English well. In order to reach people in the world of international business, at some point you need foreign language translation. This is why we turn to professional translation service.

Services Available

When you think of language translation, you might imagine having to translate a letter or e-mail message. Actually, there is a large variety of situations where we need these translation services.

- Website translation. If you are doing business online, having your site translated into as many languages as possible is a must. Imagine, on the front page of your website, a list of language icons that you're visitor can click on. Even those who are competent at speaking English may have a hard time reading it, and that may be a major barrier that keeps them from checking out your site. With your website in several languages, you will be able to easily attract customers from all over the world.

- Interpretation. This means translating orally, usually simultaneously. These services often have a system where you can call and speak to one of their specialists, who will interpret your call in real-time with a conference call. With a service like this, you can call any place in the world to do business. Also, advertising that you have this capability will make it easier for those with shaky English skills to call you with confidence.

- Multimedia services. This includes voice-overs for your audio-visual materials. For example, a video introducing your company's services can be dubbed in as many languages as you want. Most services also offer subtitles and other multimedia features.

- Software conversion. For those who are in business in the text industry, this is a must. You want to expand your target market beyond your own shores, and the only way to make your software useful overseas is to offer it in the local tongue. If you offer your software only in English, it will be harder to use even for those who do speak English competently.

- International orders. Translation services can help you set up your business with international shipping options, invoices and other forms that will allow you to ship overseas. If you can send your goods to Japan and Europe, you will greatly increase your sales.

- Document services. This might be the most important service available. You can have your legal paperwork, brochures, instruction manuals, financial documents, emails, advertising copy and anything else translated into the world's major languages.

- Consultation. When your business really takes off with overseas customers, you may find yourself needing a language consultant. This is someone who knows the local tongue and can help you as a cultural ambassador. The way dialects are used has a big effect psychologically on customers. A consultant can advice you on how to go about marketing to them.

With translation services, you are opening your business up to the world. It is not something to be taken lightly or trusted to a non-professional. Get your company's business translated, and the world is your oyster.

  • Revitalise Your Work - What To Do When You're Stuck By: Trevor Hill - We all have dreams - outcomes we would really like. But often the obstacles seem too great. So they stay dreams, never making it into reality. We feel stuck, so we try to get on with day-to-day tasks and struggle to ignore the frustration. This is a heavy brake on our performance. In his brilliant book 'The Inner Game of Tennis' Tim Gallwey first showed a new way to look at this: Performance = Potential - Interference Gallwey found that, as a tennis coach, his clients improved their game much more as he told them less what to do. Giving instructions appeared to interfere with their learning.

  • Emotional Intelligence - Emotional Self-Awareness - The First Step By: Byron Stock - The Emotional Intelligence (EI) model I have worked with for over a decade depicts emotional self-awareness as the foundational competency. Building a solid base of emotional self-awareness is necessary before progressing to develop the competencies of emotional self-management, emotional self-motivation, empathy and nurturing relationships. Many of us are unaware and, therefore, unwittingly accepting of the roller coaster of emotions we experience on a daily basis. Without this knowledge (an awareness of our emotions), the development of other EI competencies becomes difficult. We have become so accustomed to the pressures of today's world that we barely notice when the heat is turned up.

  • Sales Training in Today's Uncertain Economy By: Bob Urichuck - Sales Training is one of the most effective ways of maintaining a motivated and results oriented team of sales professionals. However, sales professional training is also known to have an impact for only up to 90 days, or for one quarter of the year. For sales training to be effective, measurable against results, in today's economy, it has to be ongoing and consistently re-enforced. The more ongoing and consistent it is, the better the results and the better the return on training investment (R.O.T.I.). Sales professional training is not product, service or company information training. That is product knowledge training, which is necessary but needs to be properly positioned in the entire training process.

  • Buying Used construction equipments is Easy Now By: Aubrey Milburn - There are two reasons why buying construction equipment that are second hand are cheaper. The first is that construction equipments once purchased and driven off a lot immediately depreciate. Annually, these construction equipments lose about 20% in value making it easy for you to buy a second hand construction equipment almost at half the original price. Another reason is that it is hard buying construction equipment and pay the full payment up front. By acquiring the services of a financial institution such as a bank, a person can pay off the loan through monthly installments. Unfortunately, some people have failed to honor that commitment which leaves the financial institutions no choice but to have the construction equipment repossessed.
