      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Foreign Translations, Inc. is the proud recipient of the Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce’s Small Business of the Month award for October 2010</p><p>Greenville, SC -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/02/2010 --   Foreign Translations, Inc. (<a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.foreigntranslations.com" href="http://www.foreigntranslations.com">http://www.foreigntranslations.com</a>) began in 1998 in a spare bedroom in Fort Lauderdale, Florida as a supplier of Italian translation services. The company moved to Greenville in 2005 and in just the past few months increased staff by 40%. It expects to add even more local employees over the next year. Foreign Translations, Inc. is recognized as a global communications powerhouse with over 3000 translators worldwide servicing all the world&apos;s major languages offering translation, interpreting, website localization, multilingual desktop publishing and international search engine optimization in every conceivable industry, including technical, legal, medical and financial. The company&apos;s registered trademark "Go Global With Confidence ®" illustrates how the company is local, but its reach is global – and by partnering with Foreign Translations, Inc., other companies can do the same.<br />
<br />
After 15 years working in large Fortune 500 companies in New York and Florida, Ken Zwerdling, founder and CEO, recognized the opportunity of a global business and having control over his future. Frustrated by the rules, politics and bureaucracy of corporate life, he decided to buck the trend and start his own company. Combining his strong entrepreneurial business background and his wife&apos;s, President Tamar Paltrow Zwerdling, expertise and experience in linguistics, they launched the company 12 years ago and never looked back. The most incredible aspect of the foreign language translation industry is that the company&apos;s services apply to all markets in all locations around the world, and yet 99% of customers are serviced through the internet, never meeting face to face. Along with all of the translation services offered, Foreign Translations, Inc. also helps customers reach farther than ever to expand and grow into new and untapped markets.<br />
<br />
The company supports many Fortune 500 companies, non-profit organizations and government agencies including the US military in Iraq and Afghanistan. After only a few years in the area, Ken and Tamar are dedicated and very active in the local community. Ken is a member of the Greenville Chamber&apos;s Small Business Committee, the Clemson University Corporate Board of Directors, and past Treasurer and current Board member of Congregation Beth Israel. He is also a corporate sponsor and member of the International Center of the Upstate&apos;s – Upstate Global Professionals. Ken is also a member of Vistage International, a renowned CEO organization. Tamar is deeply committed to the Girl Scout organization, volunteering as Membership Liaison for Downtown Greenville, the largest Service Unit in the Mountains to Midlands Council. She was recently selected as chaperone for the Summer 2011 Susu Fund International Trip to the World Center in Switzerland. Tamar is also involved in Beth Israel Synagogue as Membership Coordinator and Gift Shop Manager. As an outspoken advocate for healthy children and families, she helped launch the community garden program run by GOFO, the Greenville Organic Food Organization offering the garden area at their home in the North Main area. <br />
<br />
Foreign Translations, Inc. is a strong supporter of Clemson University, University of South Carolina, and Furman University, hiring graduates and interns on a regular basis.<br />

The project was awarded to Foreign Translations, Inc, through its General Services Administration "GSA" schedule with the federal government<br />
<br />
The AED, a division of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District, works to provide stability and security in Afghanistan through reconstruction and infrastructure development. As part of its efforts to stabilize Afghanistan, the AED employs thousands of Afghans and has created initiatives to ensure the majority of its contracts are awarded to Afghan nationals and firms. Focusing its efforts on increasing security and positively impacting the economy, the AED has completed a variety of different projects from facilities for Afghan soldiers and police, to water management studies and road construction. <br />
<br />
The Dari translation of the safety manual presented Foreign Translations, Inc. with unique challenges and opportunities. With the AED contact and the Dari translators all located in Afghanistan, Foreign Translations, Inc. worked odd hours and often conducted early morning conference calls in order to accommodate the time zone differences. To provide an accurate technical translation, Foreign Translations, Inc. ensured that Dari was the native language of the translators assigned to the project, and that their areas of expertise coincided with those specified by the AED. Despite the logistical challenges presented by managing teams in different countries and time zones around the world, Foreign Translations, Inc., through its well-established quality process in place, completed and delivered the safety manual translation in less time than the three months originally estimated for the project&apos;s completion. Foreign Translations, Inc. was honored to participate in a project to assure the safety of those working to establish a safer, more secure Afghanistan. <br />

      <title>Translation Services Firm Increases Sales By Providing Free Content </title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Consumers Today are Savvier Than Ever Before. </p><p>Greenville, SC -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/05/2009 --   According to Ken Zwerdling, CEO of Foreign Translations, Inc., (www.foreigntranslations.com) a global translation services firm, "Today&apos;s savvy Internet user leaves little room to be directed by companies to take a particular course of action. The consumer has become the expert and is in control." We have seen this change of power especially within the real estate industry. Consumers are on-line analyzing local markets and exploring homes via virtual tours with no help from a live individual, all the while making decisions without involving professionals. This trend has overflowed into many industries around the world. What does this mean for professional service companies that want to earn business? Be the first to offer consumers educational information about your services and give it away for free.<br />
<br />
Be Known As The Expert In Your Industry<br />
<br />
For companies that almost never achieve a face-to-face meeting with customers or potential customers, its on-line presence is the only means for consumers to validate its expertise and knowledge. This validation goes beyond graphics, ease of navigation, and client lists. It is found in the quality of the information that company provides. Some visitors know exactly what is wanted: price estimate, quote request, or contact information. Other visitors want to learn more about the different service offerings, while still others seek valuable free information to better understand the industry and guide the decision on who is contracted for service. By fulfilling the information needs of consumers via tutorials, instructional content and free tools a company will become the recognized expert in that field.<br />
<br />
Keep the Consumer Coming Back<br />
<br />
Free instructional articles are a valuable tool that directly serves the needs of many website visitors. The average number of page views a website visitor sees is only three. Offering instructional content will result in visitors who stay longer, view more pages, learn more about your company and become more educated. The key is to think like a customer and freely give away what is wanted. A company needs to ask itself, "What kind of information would I research if I wanted to learn more?" To stay ahead on consumer desires, a company should publish new articles periodically to accommodate ever-changing consumer interest. At Foreign Translations, Inc., the company offers a vast array of valuable instructional content. It provides white papers on topics such as How to Prepare for Globalization, Laws of Quality Translations, How to Find Growth in Non-Traditional Markets, Language Translation and Social Media, Marketing to Hispanics and Selling your Products and Services in Other Markets. In addition, there are informational articles on business etiquette in major countries such as China, Germany, and South Korea, the history of the world&apos;s major languages, and what to expect when traveling to specific countries across the globe. <br />
<br />
Some customers are simply looking for information. They want to complete due diligence and research the service needed before finalizing a purchase. You want to be the company that offers these consumers more than is expected, more than what can be gained from your competitors. Service companies must understand that instructional content can take many forms such as whitepapers, industry research, tips and free tools. Use this content effectively to make your website indispensable. Encourage your visitors to return again and again.<br />

      <title>Foreign Translations, Inc. Extends Its Global Brand Into France </title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Foreign Translations, Inc launches its new French language website www.foreigntranslations.fr specifically to offer French translation services for companies throughout Europe. </p><p>Greenville, SC -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/15/2009 --   This week Foreign Translations, Inc. unveils its new French language website (<a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.foreigntranslations.fr" href="http://www.foreigntranslations.fr">http://www.foreigntranslations.fr</a>). The Company has created this new website specifically to offer French translation services for companies throughout Europe. As English slowly becomes less common as the primary business language of the Internet, Foreign Translations, Inc. is keenly aware of consumer interest in conducting business in the native language. In response to this ever increasing demand, Foreign Translations, Inc. is launching this French website on the heels of its Spanish language (<a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.espanol.foreigntranslations.com" href="http://www.espanol.foreigntranslations.com">http://www.espanol.foreigntranslations.com</a>) website.<br />
<br />
Website Adapted For French Culture<br />
<br />
This newly designed website provides a richer, more informative experience for the French community which is proud of its French language and culture and places great value in the French translation of content into its native language. With research indicating that French is the sixth most popular language on-line and the most widely used in Europe, Foreign Translations, Inc. decided that creating a French language website would allow the French speaking community an easy and verifiable way of connecting with this highly qualified company that assists in international communications and global ventures into new markets. Like its English counterpart, the French website delivers an array of helpful resources. Through the new French language website, Foreign Translations, Inc.&apos;s French clients are given information on its quality assurance and guarantees, the ability to request quotes, and information about its translators, processes, and pricing.<br />
<br />
Focus is on Targeting French Companies in Europe<br />
<br />
As with all of Foreign Translations, Inc.&apos;s ventures, the company completed its due diligence in analyzing the French culture and adapting its French website – <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.foreigntranslations.fr" href="http://www.foreigntranslations.fr">http://www.foreigntranslations.fr</a>, to include services and procedures that complement this target market, research and application of culturally appropriate color schemes as well as Multilingual Search Engine Optimization strategies. According to CEO, Ken Zwerdling, "The roll out of our French language website provides us direct access to French businesses in France, Germany, Spain and Italy as well as the French speaking population located in other regions around the world. French companies now have a more cost effective means of acquiring English to French and French to English Translations.  It is another step in the process to expand the Foreign Translations brand worldwide."<br />
<br />
The continuing development of the Foreign Translations, Inc. multilingual website network is part of the company&apos;s strategy to remain at the cutting edge of the highest quality translation services offered to its valued clients. <br />

      <title>Foreign Translations, Inc. Launches Spanish Language Version of Website</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Greenville, SC -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/24/2009 --   Foreign Translations, Inc. has announced the launch of its new Spanish website, <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com" href="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com">http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com</a> . The new layout is specifically targeting Spanish speakers who have a need for translation services. The website will facilitate Foreign Translations, Inc.&apos;s desire to reach the Hispanic market in the United States, Mexico, South America and other Spanish speaking countries of the world. Foreign Translations, Inc. values its multilingual customer base and appreciates the fact that they would like to conduct business in their own native language. This website works to accommodate them.<br />
<br />
With the Hispanic population growing to 42 million in the United States, Foreign Translations, Inc. <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com" href="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com">http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com</a> believed that it was the right moment to provide those who are not native English speakers the opportunity to navigate its website as easily as those that do speak English. Visitors to the website will be able to read about Foreign Translations, Inc. quality assurance and guarantees, request quotes, and read about its translators, and processes and pricing. As with every project completed by Foreign Translations, Inc., it makes certain that it surpasses the standard requisite. With this, Foreign Translations, Inc. ensured that all of its company material, from brochures to proposals, is translated into Spanish. As a result, its Hispanic clients are guaranteed to receive all company information in their native language. They will also have a native Spanish speaker available by phone if they need to speak with a live person.  According to CEO, Ken Zwerdling, "We have developed a business model where the entire customer experience (keyword search, website, colors, navigation, checkout, company brochures, proposals and even customer service) is in the native language of the requestor."  Zwerdling says, "We are excited to have the opportunity to work with the entire Hispanic population of the world."<br />
<br />
When creating the new website, <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com" href="http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com">http://espanol.foreigntranslations.com</a> , Foreign Translations, Inc. determined to develop a new and unique site, rather then just translate its current English website. A great amount of time was devoted to researching preferences in the Spanish market, and customizing it for the Hispanic market. Everything from the color schemes to the images were selected based on how well the Hispanic market would receive them and connect with the company. Other key features of the new site are the ease of navigation so that visitors can quickly download the web pages, and the research behind identifying a hosting provider that would ensure fast connectivity. Foreign Translations, Inc. also extensively researched cutting edge Search Engine Optimization and Multilingual Search Engine Optimization techniques and practices to ascertain that the Spanish language website will be identified by the global Spanish search engines, including research regarding commonly misspelled Spanish words. According to Internet Marketing Director Daryl Woods, "The success of the website starts with the research and paying attention to every little detail. Researching, developing, and implementing the rules of persuasive architecture, copywriting and calls to action combined with search engine marketing and optimization, give our website the groundwork for success."<br />

      <title>Financial Translation Services for the FDIC Completed by Foreign Translations, Inc.</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Foreign Translations, Inc., through its General Services Administration (GSA) contract with the federal government, was awarded and recently completed a financial translation services contract with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)</p><p>Greenville, SC -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/12/2008 --   In July, after a rigorous selection process, Foreign Translations, Inc. (www.foreigntranslations.com), through its General Services Administration (GSA) contract with the federal government, was awarded and recently completed a financial translation services contract with the FDIC.  The project involved translating numerous training modules for the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Money Smart Financial Education Program into Hmong. <br />
<br />
The FDIC Money Smart program assists individuals with a minimal understanding of the banking structure to develop positive financial practices. The FDIC Money Smart Program has surpassed its goals in reaching over a million consumers and establishing over a thousand partnerships. The FDIC encourages the building of partnerships within communities to further the success rate of reaching more consumers. The FDIC believes that the more information people gather about banking and credit services, the more likely they are to purchase a home, save more money, and improve their overall financial well-being. According to the FDIC, training modules will be utilized throughout the United States, specifically in concentrated areas such as California and New York. The project will launch at the start of the New Year 2009.<br />
<br />
Foreign Translations, Inc., worked diligently to ensure that the training modules were translated accurately, understanding that it is of great importance that those participating in the courses fully comprehend the mission of the Money Smart Program. The FDIC stated that Foreign Translations, Inc., assisted in providing a smooth process in translating the large volume and returning the content in a timely manner. To provide this accurate translation, Foreign Translations, Inc. ensured that Hmong was the native language of the translators assigned to the project, and that their area of expertise is in financial translations. Utilizing a financial translator native to the target language and knowledgeable in the financial services industry is the only way to ensure the effectiveness and accuracy of the FDIC documents. The project lasted three months with close and frequent communication between the FDIC and Foreign Translations&apos; Hmong translators. Foreign Translations, Inc. felt privileged to take part in this constructive governmental financial process to provide assistance to the public. <br />
