How to Earn $80,000+ per Year as a Freelance Translator
This tranfree contains:
Star Letter
"Hi Alex,
You may remember that we contacted you some time ago with our
details after taking advantage of your excellent "
How to Earn $80,000+ per Year as a Freelance Translator" and
"tranmail basic" products. We later updated to the full version of
"tranmail"
and since doing so, business has never been better.
Several months down the line, and we now have our own website
and a number of regular clients. We would love for other
people to enjoy the success that we are having and so have
placed a link to "translatortips.com" on our website. This can
be found at www.jlc-translations.co.uk.
Thank you so much for all your help and advice Alex. I never
would have thought such a small investment could turn so
profitable.
All the very best.
Jamie
JLC Translation Services"
Thanks Jamie
It's great to hear about how well people are doing.
Even better to think that we might have helped in some way
The latest version of tranmail (1650+ entries) was launched two weeks ago.
You'll be glad to hear that due to the infexibility of our
ecommerce provider we have not been able to raise the price yet
as we intended. So now you get 65% more than when we launched
tranmail - for the same cost...
