The solution is always at hand Mar 4, 2019

To grow into a big agency, outbid the competitors, grab all contracts from them and start paying translators .20 out of .22. And then we'll see.

It's a free world, competition is always open.

I am thinking about buying a platform Mar 4, 2019

Since there's no platform providing the service I want, actually, I am thinking about collecting funds to buy a platform and transform it to carry out my ideas, just like buying a small business. Do you think that it is doable?

Tarif pour moins de 15 000 mots - Tarif de 15 000 à 100 000 mots

One of the sections asks:

2 Tarif de 15 000 à 100 000 mots

Hi

I'm just starting out as a freelance translator, and filling in the forms with an agency for which I just completed an internship.

One of the sections asks:
1 Tarif pour moins de 15 000 mots
2 Tarif de 15 000 à 100 000 mots
3 Si minimum

For questions 1 and 3, my instinct is to go with the rates on the ProZ rates calculator for FR>EN, ie hourly rate €0.11, minimum €0.08 those. Does anyone have advice about this, or about whether to set a different price for the word count in question 2.

thanks
