Translation Companies: Aiding your Business Growth

January 29th, 2010

In order for a business to not only grow, but gain success at a more global scale, it requires an effective and coherent marketing campaign which will not only aid in getting their business ideas across to a new clientele; but also help gain valuable business leads. A business can thrive and grow at a great rate within its native area with the help of an effective and high quality marketing campaign, but in order to successfully carry their message overseas, the use of a translation company is a must. Translation companies have helped a wide range of businesses make that crucial break to other countries and markets as it allows the ability to communicate coherently, without the confusion which can often be caused due to language barriers. Often when attempting to break into a different regional market, businesses may look to a Limited Liability Partnership to aid in their overall growth. A Limited Liability Partnership, or LLP, is similar to an ordinary business partnership where businesses can collaborate and join forces with a number of different companies. This can be extremely advantageous for a company as there is no sole responsibility on the company’s side as all risks, costs, responsibilities and profits of the business are shared by all involved. The difference with an LLP is that the liability is limited to the amount of money a specific company has invested in to the business, meaning that the members have some sort of protection of their assets if the business unfortunately runs into trouble.

 

An opportunity such as this can be extremely advantageous for a company as it not only helps increase their overall profits, but also aids them in gaining business leads which can help make the transition to marketing to a large audience all the more easier. In some cases, this partnership may be with more local companies, but in order for a business to be able to expand at a great rate, a partnership with overseas companies can help propel their business into the spotlight of a much larger market. For those businesses that are looking into joining a LLP with companies overseas, the use of a translation company is imperative in ensuring that all aspects of the deal runs smoothly with no mixed messages and no embarrassment or confusion for all parties involved. A technical translation service can provide technical terminology translations which are required in order for documentation to still be valid and legal, as well as ensuring all members of the agreement have similar copies of documentation. Having shareholders and outside support for your company can be crucial for many who are looking to expand and see their business grow. These shareholders can assist your company in a variety of different fields of the business world whether it is marketing, financial or otherwise, but with a language barrier, getting ideas and opinions across can be extremely difficult, thus making the transition to a global scale all the more difficult. With the use of a translation service, a partnership with outside companies is more likely to succeed as all members can communicate with one another, and work on the best way in which to market the company depending on your specific target markets. Without some form of outside expertise and help, a company may lose it chance to grow into the company it is destined to become.

 

For many businesses who strive to become a global success, communication is key in all phases of their growth. However, when communication is halted due to language barriers, this can create more harm than good due to confusion. In order for a company to grow to a large scale, external shareholders can be a must, and with a translation service, these shareholders can provide you with the knowledge you need, no matter where in the world you may be.

Translation Companies: Offering A Professional and Effective Hand to Your Business Projects

January 18th, 2010

When running a business, every aspect of its growth and success is imperative and should be planned out accordingly. Projects which work on beginning a new marketing campaign, looking at partnering with an outside business, or looking for a way in which to develop a new product or service. All phases of beginning and executing any of these tasks should be investigated to the letter to ensure that they are as successful as possible. If you are able to communicate effectively to the consumer, a business lead or otherwise, it is much easier to be successful in doing this, as speaking the same language as your listener makes it an easier task to put your ideas across. However, if you are looking to branch out to a more global scale, marketing your company and product/service, you will require the use of an expert translation service. The use of a translation service is vital for any business looking to make a leap into a much larger market. A launch such as this can go terribly wrong if the marketing campaign is incorrect, which more often than not can be due to badly translated literature material, etc. When promoting yourself and your service, you will have planned every aspect of your campaign to a very fine detail, and the same must be done when looking to take your company overseas.

 

Translation companies ensure that your message is never lost and that both potential customers and potential business leads are well informed about your business, your services and what you are looking to provide them with. If a marketing campaign is poorly translated, this may confuse those who are interested in your business, thus losing sales and therefore making your launch unsuccessful. In order to help properly launch your business to a more global scale, an expert translation company will oversee all aspects of translating the necessary information to help maximize the chances of your business’ success. A Professional and effective translation company will look at what you need their services for, and devise a step by step plan to ensure that every phase is thoroughly planned and executed. Firstly, your needs will be thoroughly analyzed, looking at who you are trying to target, and in what context, looking at the different terminology which is required in order to optimize the level of translation. Here, the terminology you require will also be taken in consideration if specific business, medical or legal terminology is required. Next, a suitable translator of the native tongue from their team will translate the required documents, ensuring that the quality of terminology is of the highest possible standard. The best translation companies will have a team with a wide range of language skills from different areas of the world. But having team members of a native tongue, this aids in increasing the accuracy as reading, writing and speaking a language are completely different from one another. Once this initial translation has been completed, the document will be examined and proof read to ensure it is of the highest standard for the native tongue in which it is required in and that it reads smoothly, without any visible signs which show it is a translation. It will then be checked by the industry specialists before being approved by the Managers before being sent back to the client.  

 

With a detailed structure such as this, you will be safe in the knowledge that you translation is of the highest possible quality and will remain a professional and efficient piece of documentation for your business needs. Communication in business is everything, and with the help of a translation company, you can make that leap with your company into the global business world.

For a Sustainable Development of Translation Companies

March 12th, 2009

Translation companies are now facing a lot of problems which will hold back their future development. This paper puts forward six suggestions about enhancing the translation’s essential competitiveness and ensuring its sustainable development.

With vigorous development of globalization, increasingly economic, technological and cultural exchanges between nations have spawned a huge translation service market since the end of last century. Translation service providers and practitioners are facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges. On the one hand, translation service is becoming an essential drive for modern social development; At meantime, it faces many complex problems that hold back the further sustainable development. To enhance this industry’s essential competitiveness and to ensure its development in a sustainable manner, the following strategies should be adopted:

1. Attaching greater importance to self-discipline as well as the regulation of the industry. Unlike other industries or in-house translators, a translation company usually has a large number of freelancers working for it, which causes troubles in the management of a company. Therefore, it’s the duty of freelancers, in-house translators and companies to defend the dignity of this industry for its sustainable and benign development.

2.Pushing for the formulation and perfection of national standards on translation and interpretation. The particularity and difficulty of the quality in translation industry is that there is something negotiated between client and the translator, as suggested by Schaffner. So quality assessment procedures in a translation company are no longer an individual responsibility, but have become a corporate issue.

3. Facilitating professionalization of translation and translation training. It should be recognized that it is useful for translators to be able to benefit from continuing education courses. Moreover, it is growing recognized that translation is interdisciplinary. Training program for translator or interpreter must not only stress on bilingual competence, but also attach equal importance to hands-on practice, knowledge and skills of other disciplines, such as terminology management, desktop publishing, computer skills and knowledge of specialized fields.

4. Tapping into available resources and significantly expanding the industry. Each translation company has its unique advantage and specialty. It’s highly recommended that companies cooperate and coexist with each other on a resource sharing and mutually beneficial basis.

5. Enhancing the profile of the translation industry, promoting translators’ and interpreters’ rights and interests. Translation companies can take part in more public welfares in order that society gets a better understanding of the value of their work. Meanwhile, translation is a knowledge business. Consequently, human resources remain the most important factor. Protection or their rights and reward to the diligent are keys to arouse their enthusiasm and creativities.

6. Gaining a comprehensive, in-depth understanding of translation as an industry. Knowing what position the company in is always good for it to make a long-term development program.

As one of the translation companies, Transhorsa Translation Company, we put forward six suggestions above from our years’ devotion to this industry and experiences accumulated, in the hope of contributing to maintain a canonical, regular and healthy-developing translation market.

Three Strategies for Translation Companies to Develop for Translation Services Globalization

February 17th, 2009

Under the circumstances of globalization, doing businesses on a global scale, recruiting translation talents from all over the world and integrating computer-aided translation technology into the businesses are three important strategic decisions that can bring success to translation companies.
Nowadays, many businesses get onto the track of globalization, so do translation services. In the process of globalization of translation services, if translation companies want to run their businesses successfully, they have to do three things on a strategic level to meet the challenges brought about by globalization.
First, they have to expand the company on global scale; second, they have to recruit translation talents coming from all over the world; third, they have to integrate computer-aided translation technology into management.  

In the past, many translation companies delivered services only to some local customers. Since the local translation market was not very big, translation companies were always forced to attract some other businesses like printing, card making, advertising, etc. By doing so, they could make small money, but they could never expect to run their business in a more professional manner and on a large scale. However, with the development of globalization, translation has become one of the most popular industries across the world, which may include projects from small ones like translation of driving licenses, score lists of the students to big ones like providing interpreters to international conferences, preparing various negotiations, translating scientific materials in many fields, and so on. As the market is growing,running the business locally can not meet the requirements of globalization any more. In order to expand the translation company on a global scale, the company has to narrow its business scope, enlarge its business platform, build offices in cities across the world and manage its business in the direction of specialization.

In addition to running translation business professionally on a global scale, translation companies also need to recruit employees from all over the world. In the past, since translation companies only receive clients at home, the language types they engage in are limited to only several most popular languages in the world, such as English, French, Russian, Japanese, etc. Under the circumstances of globalization, whereas, the language translation may involves many native language conversions in the world, so translation companies have to recruit proficient translators from all over the world.

Last but not the least, when the market is globalized, it is also very important for integration of computer-aided translation technology into translation management and control process of the company. Decades ago, most translators did translation sentence by sentence only with the help of their brain. Although they often met with very similar expressions in one project running hundreds of pages, they had to translate those expressions again and again since they didn’t have any computer-aided translation software. In recent years, the usage of software such as TRADOS, CAT, transit, etc. has improved the working efficiency of the translation greatly. Usually, these kinds of translation assistant software have memory function, electronic glossary bank and search engine. With the help of them, the translators can search and make a comparison of the translated sentences in a fast manner so that they never need to translate those identical expressions which appear on different pages of the same article repeatedly, they can save the time which was used to repeatedly consult dictionaries thus improve their translating speed by a large margin.
Of course, in the globalization process, if translation companies want to run its business successfully, doing the above-mentioned things is not enough and many new problems may also come forth, but these three things mentioned above do play a very important role for development strategy of a translation company and ensure the business success.
