Testimonials, Part 1

Thank you for providing translators with a database of agencies. Your worldwide list has helped me enter into the European market and expand my client base. After sending out just 300 messages, I already have acquired new agency contacts and the first job has paid for the cost of the entire list. Thank you for your service.

Quite recently I have bought from you the list of translation agencies, and unfortunately it is all gone now as my computer crashed a week ago and I lost all of my emails and documents.

I would kindly ask you to resend me the list as I find it very useful.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Dear Sirs,

Although, I have been registered since last October, I didn't have the chance to thank you.

With the translation agency databases I now work more than part-time!!

A big thank you is not enough.

Sincerely yours,

Good customer service is what people now a days are wanting to receive.

Thank you for offering this product! Using the database and e-mail program has saved me a lot of time researching information about individual translation agencies, and I have gotten a favorable number of potential leads to new projects and partnerships. Thank you also for your excellent technical support! I will gladly recommend this product to fellow freelance translators and interpreters.

Thanks for enquiring about the usefulness of your database. I haven't send mails to all addresses yet, but I have received many replies. Very few addresses do not work, about maybe 5-10% of all I used so far. By the way, I kept in records these addresses, if you think that could be useful for an update, I can send them to you.

All replies I got did not get me jobs, but I admit I found some clients through them. I can say I had lots of positive replies, of people asking me more details or sending me their registration form or web site. It saved me a lot of time ! I tried to create my own database, but it's so time consuming that it revealed counter producive.

I'd rather you don't mention my name or mail address, but you can definitely use my comments if needed.

So I guess this is a favorable feedback for a great tool ! And I appreciate it if you could send me the update.

Best regards,

I have subscribed to this database of translation agencies and find it very useful. As a starter to the translation profession - two and a half years to be exact - the database is what I have needed to establish myself and make those vital contacts. It has given confidence and I would recommend it to anyone.

Hi There

Thanks for the list of the translations agencies.

I've already sent emails to the agents on the database list, and got replies from most of them and had already earned my first sum of money through translation.

Thanks once again for your help.

I've been invited to speak at the Proz.com conference in Buenos Aires (http://www.proz.com/conference/5?page=speakers) and in the resources portion of my conference I plan to talk about direct marketing (what to do and what not to do) as well as give some resources.

Can you send me some updated info on your list (rates, number of agencies, etc.)

It's the only one I would recommend because it has given me such excellent results.

Also, if you have other resources for translators, please feel free to send them also.

Thanks

Translation Directory is a very useful web site, because it offers translators all over the world the opportunity to contact as many agencies as possible, which would normally be very hard for an individual trying to find freelance work by himself/herself, given how competitive the translation market is.

Therefore, I am really glad I purchased their very detailed database.

In addition, they are a very serious and reliable organization, and their customer service is efficient and very friendly, which makes them stand out from the many other sites offering similar services, but charging high amounts of money for outdated material.

So thank you very much for your assistance! I definitely am a satisfied customer.

Hello.

Your translation directory was very useful indeed, it allowed me to customize my letters to the various agencies and the feedback rate was quite significant.

Since then, I have stopped translating however since competition is enormous in this field and I discovered it was not really my cup of tea.

On another note, do you by any chance have - or have access to - a similar database for art galleries?

Thanks for making the email list available for us in the industry. It sure has cut short my work in searching and developing a similar list myself. It will probably take me days to do so.

We are looking forward to getting the updated list with increased success.

Please kindly confirm the receipt of this email. Many thanks!
