SUPPLY & DEMAND IN LANGUAGES: A SMALL FIRM RESPONDS WITH BIG RESULTS
Local, national and international organizations are waking up to realize that in order to compete, they have to step up multilingual efforts outside of their comfort zone. They're now ramping up their online and print marketing efforts, hosting international guests for worldwide conventions and dealing with compliance to international regulations such as the European Union's CE. Because of this, the need for multilingual translation services has shown tremendous growth in 2007.
U.S. Translation Company (USTC), in Ogden, Utah, has seen this growth first hand with an increase in sales of 47% over 2006, and as a provider of technical document translation, live conference and on-site interpretation and localization services, 2007 was an incredible year of expansion. They not only increased sales by 47%, they added over 100 new clients in an industry where the majority of sales generally come from the existing clients.
This increase is a compilation of several factors in conjunction with the proven demand. In early 2007, USTC received two prestigious awards, the Small Minority Business of the Year Award from the Salt Lake Chamber as well as the Top 5 Business to Watch Award from the Utah Hispanic Chamber. This drew great attention to the quality of service our organization provides both for local organizations as well as for large, international firms located outside of Utah.
Although USTC is classified as a "small" SBA 8(a) firm, it operates with the same attention to detail and professionalism as the giants in the industry. Organizations and government entities are now realizing that they can receive the same superior products from a small firm at competitive rates, but also be treated to gold star customer service, which is hard to come by when working with an industry "giant".
Their precision project management system, OnTarget, paired with the backbone of ISO 9001:2008 Quality Certification and Registration allows our firm to keep the personal touch while providing big time interpretation and translation services.
