The spread of fast internet connectivity has enabled the freelance workforce to boom. Companies can now pick and choose from skilled freelancers around the world as and when they need professional expertise for a particular project, rather than having to employ fulltime staff. However, managing freelancers around the world is not without its challenges, as a recent Tomedes client found out.
The client had engaged a freelancer based in Thailand to undertake some design work for her. The freelancer’s portfolio was impressive and his skills beyond doubt, but his English (the client’s native language) fell far short of his design abilities. As our client’s requirements regarding her design were so specific, she decided to translate them into Thai in order to ensure that the work was carried out precisely as she intended.
Tomedes was pleased to be able to help. We have some 5,000 translators based around the world and are able to offer professional translation for a wide range of language pairings, including English to Thai (and vice versa). We were able to identify the perfect translator for this client’s corporate document and quickly provider her with the information she needed in flawlessly translated Thai.
The accurate translation provided by Tomedes made all the difference to this client’s interaction with her freelance designer. While he had relied on machine translation to aid his communication with her, the client’s use of human translation took the understanding between the pair to the next level. The freelancer was immediately able to comprehend precisely what it was she was looking for and commence his design work.
The client was delighted with the result. Laying out just a small sum for a professional translation service made a massive difference to the project that she was working on and meant that she could use the freelancer she wanted to, regardless of the language barrier between them.
