Managing your Freelance Translation Business 

As translators we invest large amounts of time and money in developing the language skills necessary to become professionals, yet when we begin working in the field, we quickly realize that translating documents is only one part of having a successful career. We must also develop a wide range of skills necessary in order to run our translation business. In this 3 hour workshop we will discuss the nitty gritty of what it takes to manage a small business, including handling issues relating to finances and expenses, tax issues, preparing quotes and invoicing, calculating rates, subcontracting, official certifications and interactions with clients.
The goal of the workshop is for participants to become aware of and be prepared to handle practical issues relating to running a translation business and making a living as a freelance translator.
