It can be difficult to communicate with clients who are not proficient in English. The problems are that:

• meetings and conversations can be time-consuming

• you can't be sure that you've understood everything that's been said to you

• and you can't be sure that everything you've tried to communicate has been understood.

Until recently, the only option has been to bring in a face-to-face interpreter, with the associated costs.

Now telephone interpreting offers a new option. All you have to do is to arrange for a telephone interpreter to be available.

You and your client can either be in the same office speaking alternately to the telephone interpreter over the phone. Or if you and your client are communicating by phone, we will set up a conference call so that both parties can speak to the interpreter.

Financially it works well as you are only charged for the amount of time you are directly on the phone (even if you are just speaking for a few minutes), and you don't have to pay any travelling time for the interpreter.
