In other words, we talk a lot. It can be on Proz, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn. We want to be heard. Badly. But the methods and styles of online communication we use, by nature contain self-promotional messages. As long as self-promotion is not pursued directly but becomes a result of constructive discourse and contribution for the benefit of our colleagues, and the industry as a whole, there can be no harm.
But if our message revolves persistently around ourselves and our achievements, would this help us gain more credibility and consequently more business?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=”blue” border_width=”2″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”9/12″][vc_column_text]Magda is an Italy-based Greek native translator specializing in law, health and transcreation.
