- 2. “ ” TRANSLATION IS THAT WHICH TRANSFORMS EVERYTHING SO THAT NOTHING CHANGES. Grass Günter Olha Bodnar
- 3. OUTSOURCE TRANSLATION SERVICES Olha Bodnar Speak the language of your client!
- 4. DO ONLY WHAT YOU DO BEST The translation client should outsource their translation and localization processes. The translation demands should be put in the hands of a contractor (translator) so that the client can focus 100% of the energy on their core business. Olha Bodnar
- 5. FOCUS ON YOUR UNIQUE STRENGTHS Think of your translator as an extension of your business, not just as a contractor. You’ll also enjoy the operational efficiencies that come about as a result of outsourcing services. Olha Bodnar
- 6. VALUES Speak the language of your client! Olha Bodnar
- 7. The translation client should know the values of the potential translation provider. Their values can give a better idea as to how a translator will do business with you. Find a translator who is passionate about what they are doing. Don’t just email, actually speak with or meet your potential translation provider. Olha Bodnar

- 10. CUSTOMIZED SOLUTION Translators offer various services, so when it's time to choose one, it's worthwhile for the translation client to talk to the chosen translator about their needs and make sure that the translator will customize a solution specifically for the client's company. The client will benefit from the valuable professional solutions tailored specifically to their needs. Olha Bodnar
- 11. LOYALTY Working with one translator can be very beneficial for the company. The loyal translator will anticipate your needs, learn to recognize, and respond to your needs before they are expressed—sometimes before you even realize you have a need. These are healthy business relationships. Olha Bodnar
- 12. CONSISTENCY It's worthwhile to build long lasting relationships with one translator. Translations will be of a consistent quality. Also the more often the client uses the translator, the lower the price can get. The translation client should realize that close cooperation with a translator will guarantee a constant dialogue, flow of ideas, and help produce translation of high quality. Olha Bodnar
- 13. ADAPTABILITY The translation client should look for a responsive translator who should be aware of such challenges as o tight deadlines, o last-minute textual changes or o additions. Olha Bodnar Such translator will quickly adapt to these changes and follow the new instructions focusing on producing a high-quality translation.
- 14. AVAILABILITY The world is getting smaller every day and business can be done globally thanks to technological advances. Still it's good idea for the translation client to choose a translator who is available in the client's time zone. Olha Bodnar Sometimes it may be critical for the client to reach translator during the business hours in case an urgent project or an issue arises.
- 15. ONGOING BUSINESS The translation client should talk with the translation provider not just about one project, but about their ongoing needs. Moving the discussion further into the future makes you more attractive as a client, because you’re offering more than a single project. In case of an ongoing project, it's worthwhile to build long lasting relationships with one translator. Such translator will dedicate a particular number of hours per month for the client to translate the necessary number of words. In such a way, the translator and the client would spend less time managing small projects but focus on delivering high-quality results instead. Olha Bodnar
