I have worked as a freelance translator for two years now and am currently specialising in literary translations. I and a friend of mine, who is also a translator would like to start our own agency, but need some pointers on how to get started:
-How much can we charge per word as an agency?
-How do we find the clients without spamming?
-How do we make a website that gets in all the major search engines for little money?
-What legal actions have to be taken? (such as taxes, an accountant, a capital....)
-And finally how much is all of this going to cost.
We both live in Belgium, so any questions you can't answer we get them answered somewhere here in Belgium.
Thank you in advance and sorry for the long letter.
Sincerely,
Mette Hansen
