Hello Affiliates,
Today, I want to talk about speed.
In business, success isn’t just about having the best product; it’s also about being the fastest.
In fact, you could argue that being first to market is the truest competitive advantage.
Think about a company like Uber or Airbnb.
They weren’t the first to offer transportation or lodging, but they were the first to make the process incredibly fast, simple, and digital.
When you think of on-demand rides or short-term rentals, do any other companies come to mind first?
Probably not.
They won by being fast and frictionless.
We can apply the same rationale to your translation services.
We love receiving messages from our community—your ideas, bug reports, and service suggestions help us grow and get closer to our goal of being the number one affiliate program for notaries and apostille agents.
However, we also get a lot of questions about information that is publicly and easily available, such as:
“Do you translate X language?”
“How much does a page cost?”
“What’s the turnaround time?”
We are always happy to help, but we’re also a team managing multiple requests from partners and clients.
The delay between us answering your question and you relaying that information to your client could be the difference between a sale and a lost opportunity.
For these basic questions, we always recommend consulting your affiliate translation order form, which you can access via your affiliate URL.
Pro-Tip: To get a quick price, you don’t even need to upload a document or pay.
Just select the page quantity and the language, and the price will be automatically calculated.
This gives you a fast, reliable quote for your client in seconds.
For example:
By using the information already available to you, you save time for everyone involved.
It’s a win-win-win that frees up resources for you, gets your client what they need to make an informed decision, and allows us to dedicate more time to improving our program.
On a related note, the old adage is true: time is money.
We have something in the pipeline to help you save time through improved organization and workflow.
This isn’t a language service; it’s something completely different.
Stay tuned for more info in the coming weeks.
