Finding and Marketing to Translation Agencies: A Practical Guide for Freelance Translators

by Corinne McKay

Translation agencies are the backbone of many freelance translators’ businesses. A good agency can offer you a steady flow of projects, allowing you to translate while the agency handles the non-translation work. But especially in the rapidly-changing landscape of the translation industry, you need to know how to find and market to translation agencies and how to work effectively with them.

Finding and Marketing to Translation Agencies walks you through the process of identifying agencies that are worth applying to, making contact, following up, tracking your marketing efforts, and negotiating rates and payment terms. The book includes a bonus chapter, answering real-life questions submitted by readers of the author’s blog.

Some good reminders for experienced translators, and plenty of advice for people just starting out

It is actually a very useful book with great tips, I give it 3 stars because it has pretty much the same information as "How to succeed as a freelance translator" of the same author and which I recommend a lot.
