Politeness. And promptness.

Professionalism.


I was going to say that, but "professionalism" means different things to different people. For some, professionalism means responding rudely to low opening offers.

The lowest rate possible Aug 19, 2019

Offering the lowest rate possible brings my competitors a lot of projects, most of which go from India based agencies... They translate 7000 words a day and seem to be quite happy with their 0.01-0.02 USD / word rate. As for me, it's mostly answering to e-mails, when a client finds me in a directory.
