Skype

For a while now I have contemplated using Skype as a marketing tool.  With this technology I can reach clients on a larger scale.  Instead of flying workers and/or clients in and arranging accomodations, people are using Internet based portals at a growing rate to hold meetings, give lessons, and conduct different aspects of business.  Why not go the same route for translation?  Yes translation is written text, but a tool like Skype could be beneficial, for instance, in discussing a current or future project with a client.  If your proofreader has Skype you can go over any discrepancies or questions that may arise without having to constantly send emails to each other. The immediate connection through Skype, along with the face to face contact may put you at an advantage.  Any tool that facilitates or benefits your business can only be positive after all!
