Hub You - Translation Work - Freelance Translator Application Advice
When I started my Construction Business I came right out of the Corporate world and understood the value of laying out a solid foundation for my business that would be ready when we were big.

Sure, this attention-getting strategy is popular. But, is it effective?

We’ve all had it happen.We’re pushing for a sale, really laying down the work and convincing a customer that our car, our prices, are the best deal they’ll ever get.We’re being honest and fair, trying to help the customer out, even disregarding the fact that we probably won’t make a buck of profit on this one.

For instance I post a job for a Italian>English Translation and get a CV from a Portuguese translator native speaker who is fluent in neither language.
4) Don’t forget to provide rates and the rest of your ‘required’ information
