📢 FREELANCE TRANSLATORS! Got a spare 3 minutes?

Keen to offer charities or those with low budgets a discount on your services? Feel you can't justify the financial implications? Or do you love the opportunity to help out where you can?

For my MA dissertation, I’m investigating Language Service Providers – both agencies and freelancers - and their current models, motivations and attitudes surrounding discounted and pro bono translation.

Your (anonymous) responses as a freelancer, alongside structured interviews with translation agencies, will help form the basis of analysis for my postgraduate dissertation supported by the University of Birmingham and in collaboration with the Association of Translation Companies.

If you’re not a freelancer but instead represent a translation agency, I would LOVE to hear your thoughts so – if interested - please comment or get in touch so we might arrange an interview.

Share the post far and wide! MUCHÍSIMAS gracias in advance.
