Translation Process
If a client uses a larger translation company, that client is paying for:
- Expensive office rent (often times in a major city center), presentation and other forms of overhead;
- Support/administrative/marketing staff;
- One to two translators, plus one to two proofreaders, plus one to two project managers, plus one to two editors…
If a client uses SLBT, that client is paying for:
- Very low overhead (we are located in Brownsville, Texas);
- Built-in support/administrative/marketing staff (two-person team);
- One translator, who at the same time acts as his own proofreader, project manager and editor (four functions for the price of one!)
You might ask: Isn’t it better for four people to work on a project instead of than one? Not necessarily. During medical operations, often only one surgeon operates. At trial court proceedings, one judge normally presides. We know of no compelling reason why a translator who is also sufficiently diligent about proofreading, project management and editing cannot handle all four jobs at once!
The result: The client saves both TIME AND MONEY, given that documents are completed both more quickly and economically than with other (larger) companies. Furthermore, any questions about the translation and/or requests for changes requested are immediately addressed and handled by Zel Saccani, J.D.
