Services
Translation
When you’re speaking to a new target audience, it’s essential you connect straight away. Clear communication lies at the heart of all customer relationships, so I ensure your personality and values shine through.
I use unambiguous, professional and natural language to translate your message and engage with your audience, while bearing in mind any cultural considerations.
Services include: articles, brochures, websites, company presentations, business plans, magazines, videos/subtitles, newsletters, e-learning content, books/literature, SEO translation services & keyword research & localisation and content optimisation.
Editing & Proofreading
Mistakes are common. You can read through a text 10 times and still not spot the most obvious omissions or punctuation errors. That’s because your eyes read what they want to see. This can be dangerous for your reputation, both personal and professional.
I offer proofreading and editing services, brand guideline creation and tone of voice guides.
Services include: press releases, newsletters, web copy, social media content, blog posts, advertising copy, product descriptions, leaflets, seminar/webinar materials, books/literature.
Multilingual Project Management
Multiple projects, languages and deadlines? Let me help!
I offer Dutch, German and Russian translation into English, which means you get a unique multilingual service enabling you to reach clients in multiple locations, using just one translator.
But if you’re looking for language combinations different to mine, just let me know. I work with a trusted pool of translators offering additional language combinations so you get a comprehensive service with the quality you’d expect.
Copywriting
Need help nailing your tone of voice, writing new web copy, blog posts or social media content? I write about a variety of subjects including swimming (open water & indoor), running, cycling, horse riding, hiking, paddleboarding.
Services include: web copy, blog posts, ghost writing, email newsletters, white papers, impact reports.
Closed Captions
Video content should be accessible to all, whether you’re deaf or hard of hearing, or viewing content in a quiet space. I create subtitles and closed captions for tv shows, films, webinars, videos for websites and social media video content.
Services include: English subtitle creation, English subtitles for deaf and hard of hearing people, subtitle quality control, English subtitle template creation (so that subtitles can be translated into additional languages).
Language Consultancy
Need help entering a new market? I offer cultural briefings to get you and your staff up to speed. With more than a decade of experience trading internationally, I’ll smooth out your first forays into new territory.
Services include: conference/interview preparation, market research, pitch proofreading, industry updates.
CASE STUDIES
I’ve worked with Summit Fever Media for around 2 years now and I’ve helped them prepare for pitches, edit project proposals, I’ve written web copy, impacts reports, and much more besides.
We get each other and share the same core values and beliefs in life. That’s what makes our partnership special.
When a company looking to improve the health of the nation knocks on your door, how do you welcome them? With open arms, of course!
This project involved localising (i.e. translating and adapting content to the local GB market) their German Global Oviva web copy into English. The initial project lasted 4 months, however we’ve continued to work together as the web copy requirements continue to evolve.
TESTIMONIALS
“…the pitch preparation, proofreading of pitch materials and insightful questions helped us realign our business. And honestly so much in general – with being more assertive in how we project ourselves.โ
Ellie West, Director @ Summit Fever Media
“Working with Marjolein was very efficient & professional. She made sure she understood our requirements and tone of voice & was greatly working towards our deadline, delivering 1 week in advance. Whenever she was not sure about something, she involved our team & kept us well in the loop where she stood.
It was great working with her!”
Luisa Gerstner, Chief of Staff @ Oviva AG
