What can I do for you?
Do you have translation needs that require the skills of a professional Dutch to French translator? You are looking for the best compromise between quality and price? Your priority is receiving a quality translation on time?
If you answered yes to one or several of these questions, then don't lose a second,
and let me know about the job to perform. I will need the necessary information such as:
- the whole file to be translated so as to provide a quote, or
- a sample if the final draft is not yet finished (final quote will depend on the final document!), or
- the url of your website in case of web site translation and/or website promotion),
- the deadline
Optional (if you have sent the whole file)
- the nature of the job and the technicity of the job (html files, *.txt, *.doc, *.html, *.php, Powerpoint Presentation, Excel files, Word files)
- the subject and the terms of payment if other than Net 30 days.
If the volume is more than I can handle alone, or if you are contacting me for a language pair I do not handle personally, I will work with my fellow freelance translators from BeTranslated.
