Client hunting

Schedule:On-demand
Description:

The first and foremost task (and often a challenge) for every novice freelance translator is finding clients. That's exactly what we'll be talking about.

We'll discuss types of clients and see how they differ; talk about the decision-making process characteristic for various clients; have a look at the sometimes longish ""production chain"" - all of that so that we could easily develop strategies of getting clients and tactics for working with them.

The ultimate purpose of the session is to arm freelance translators with "weapons"" necessary to turn into expert client hunters.
