Jump-start your translation business
Joe Dougherty, TRANSLATED's business development manager, describes how partnership opportunities can give you a head start in translation
TRANSLATED is a leading language service provider serving 4,000 customers worldwide including Hewlett Packard, IBM, Suzuki, United Colors of Benetton and 20th Century Fox.Our partner program is an exciting business opportunity for individuals and companies to market a world-class translation service.
With TRANSLATED behind them, partners can concentrate on developing their strengths without fear of taking on projects which lie outside of their core competencies or which strain their production capabilities.
The program is structured around 3 solutions, aimed at freelance translators, new translation agencies and established agencies respectively.
No initial investment is formally required. The budget and time allocated in your business plan, however, define your objectives.
Which partnership plan is for you?
Freelance translators: start your own translation company
Case study: Silvia is a professional translator with 10 years of experience who has established successful direct
relationships with local companies. Customers started to come to her with large multilingual projects which
exceeded her capacity and which she was forced to turn down. As a TRANSLATED partner, she is able to offer a complete
service to her customers, and she has doubled her turnover with the commission she earns.
Benefits:
• Earn commission: concentrate on the translations you do best, refer the rest for commission.
• Superior service: support 80 languages & never turn work down because you're busy.
• Professional growth: technical support for website and software localization, graphics and DTP.

New agencies: open a sales office in 1 week
Case study: A Swedish entrepreneur was receiving constant requests from his customers for translation. To take
advantage of the opportunity he considered opening a translation agency, but found that the start-up costs were
prohibitive. Partnership with TRANSLATED enabled him to minimize the initial investment and to offer his customers
a mature portfolio of translation services right from the start. Miguel is now managing our Swedish sales office.
Benefits:
• Minimize initial investment: our infrastructure is ready to go in 80 languages and every field of linguistic specialization.
• Concentrate on sales: leave translator selection, project management and accounting to us.
• Offer value-added services: tap our experience in turnkey website and software localization solutions, graphics and DTP.
• Benefit from the visibility of the TRANSLATED brand.

Established agencies: focus on your customers
Case study: A French agency specialized in translations in the main European languages received a request from
their biggest customer to translate a website into English and Arabic. The agency did not have
enough Arabic translators and had no experience of producing web content in Arabic. In partnership
with TRANSLATED, the agency was not only able to meet production requirements, but was able to offer their customer a
'ready to go live' localization solution. By using TRANSLATED's centralized translation memory server, the agency
was also able to increase its margin on the project by 20%.
• Never say no: support production peaks, fast delivery, rare languages and specialist fields.
• Broaden your portfolio: complex website and software localization (UTF-8 migration, file engineering, localization testing, automated content exchange via web service).
• Focus on your customers: delegate translator selection, project management and accounting.
