Most webinars for freelance translators start and end with the speaker's presentation. I have made a series of webinars that start with explaining marketing, then that take you through how to implement these factors, all the way to the results of these endeavors: defining your business concept, picking your business name, designing your logo and building your website. Each step is thus a result of the previous one.

"Online Presence for Freelance Translators" is a 4-week long course, on practical business, IT knowledge and skills that you need in our profession. You can expect to spend about one to four hours working on course-related activities each week. Each week you'll come up with results: business concept and name in the first week, a logo concept in the second week, a website concept in the third week. This is what's included:

+ 4 one hour-long online group lessons to devise your niche as a freelance translator.
+ 70+ slides containing business knowledge, technical tips and practical examples for your perusal.
+ One-to-one tuition to apply everything you've learned.
+ An invitation to join our page, which is exclusive to participants, and will help you to promote yourself as well as showcase your results.
+ A recording of each classroom session to review later.
