I specialise in providing my clients with professional Swedish translation/proofreading and copywriting services with the emphasis on marketing communications.

Is marketing important to you? Well, if you have a business of some type you need clients and they need to know that you are out there. But how? We are surrounded by information, but if you think about it, how much of what you see or read in the media really grabs your attention, is the information really suited to your needs? If you want to communicate EFFECTIVELY with your client, you have to be relevant.

First of all, you need to be able to communicate your message clearly, if people don´t understand what you say, it´s a waste of both time and energy. Secondly, you need a clear vision of who you want to reach and why? Last but not least you need to understand the needs of the client.

A good friend of mine, one of Sweden´s most highly regarded experts on how to build a company based on trust, Mr Håkan Lagergren, has an expression that I often go back to: "The degree of your success depends on the quality of your communication."

Having a message without being able to communicate it clearly, is almost like being in a creek without a paddle. You need to put yourself in the position of the client. Indeed, in some way or another we are all in the communications business.

PROVEN EXPERTISE

In the early nineties when I was working as a Forest Engineer in Finland I decided to go to the USA to study international marketing. When I came back to Europe I started my own translation/copywriting business. Today, I am working with several multinational companies and I have also been creating the environmental section of the Swedish Forest Glossary as well as making contributions to the environmental terminology of the EU terminology database Eurodicautom.
