Really interesting and many personal questions found answers. For future events, I hope that technical problems will be less important... A great moment

Very interesting, indeed! Kind regards, Emanuela


Bunch of thanks.


After an initial brief period of technical difficulties with the audio; I thought the presentation was not only well -presented and interesting, but that it also offered a lot of useful and new information, as well. Thanks again for this well-received yearly event, Suzanne: keep up the good work!

15:09 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All nope :=
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All You have no idea.
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All :=
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All :)
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All see, you got me confused
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Are you talking to me?
15:10 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All Cesar
15:10 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All and his question :)
15:10 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All So: you state you price, and don't give in.
15:10 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All yes
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All but, i won' starve since this is not my only income source
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Somebody once told me it's not a good idea to start you offer with your price. Since I tend to start to talk about the deadline, and only then start to talk about the price.
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All In my experience I don't remember offensive offers, low in the worst case
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All I agree with that, Peter.
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All ah, i guess it depends on the country
15:11 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All of course, the deadline is crucial to set the price!
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I also once read that people tend to pay more if you break up a total bill in smaller parts. Then they see lower figures, and are more tempted to accept the outcome.
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All interesting
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All In in ideal world, translators should have access to the material first and a deadline specified before making a price decision
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I also think that those strategies don't work with purchase managers.
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All interesting
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All Hi Barbara!!!
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Well, I always ask to see the material before I commit myself.
15:12 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All I was wondering if I would see you here :)
15:13 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Hiya? Definitively Girls Aloud...
