Hi Robert

I recently posted a similar post on one of my blogs. I agree that it would be disasterous to use an automated translation program for a salesletter. I’ve read salesletters written by people for whom English is obviously their second language and, rightly or wrongly, it doesn’t instil confidence. I’m familiar with elance but wasn’t aware of Student Gems, though, so thanks for that.

Good idea Robert. Surprisingly, I make lots of sales to European / non English speaking countries

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/phoenix-e-books-uk

yet I never list on non-English eBays or have my listings translated. Many people don’t realise that the second largest eBay market (by some considerable margin -much bigger than eBay UK) after .com is in fact eBay.de…EBay Germany. Having some lisings translated into Deutsch might be worth considering as theres obviously a huge market there.

Hi Dave, thanks for the comment, I am trying to move from selling physical products because I want to move to spain in the next few years and can imagine trying to ship physical products to be a nightmare. So its the digital route for me!!
Cheers

Hello Rob,

Thanks for your comment on my blog, I find your site very interesting, ended up reading most of the posts so thats got to be a good sign.

I’ll make a note of those translation sites, could be useful later.

I did contemplate selling physical products initially but ended up going the internet marketing route to start with, mainly as my day job as an engineer takes me all over the place and difficult to normal trading as you need a base. May yet have a go later though, and your ebay articles are interesting. I had noticed that Amazon seemed to be getting a bigger presence on the web these days, hadn’t realised the reasons though.

Good luck with the course and other ventures.

Regards

Dave

Hi Robert,
Very interesting post. Useful to extend the business all over the world.
You’re right for the sales letter, it should be done by a professional. The http://www.elance.com idea is great.

Thanks for the tips.
