Drew MacFadyen.. Thank you for this nice event. Unfortuantely, I can not find my pdf attendance for this event. Only 2015 is there in my profile and the details of this year but no certificate whatsoever for 2016. Could you do somethinf about this issue please. Waiting your reply.

Great event, really interesting and unusual tips & tricks too!
Translation tools and strategies for freelance were, imho, the best points.

---

I couldn't attend, but I wish I could watch the videos on demand. However, those who couldn't attend can't watch them, even if they have a paid membership. It does not make sense.

---

Very useful and interesting!

---

Happy International Translation Day!

Very interesting!

Time	From	To	Content
14:51 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Ah, but only certain persons can access it? So it's something like an extranet, but wireless?
14:51 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	Just a reminder that the last chat session before the virtual powwow stars in one minutre: Pricing and negotiation strategies http://www.proz.com/virtual-conferences/605/program/9476
14:51 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	See you all there!!!
14:52 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	wireless? you can use internet as always, wireless or not
14:52 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Yes, true.
14:52 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	ok, move to the next room! :)
14:54 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	hi all
14:54 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	so, the smartcard makes sure you are the one who enters the VPN - which is an extranet - and not somebody else?
14:54 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	Hi César!
14:55 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	where are the others? Still at the bar?
14:55 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	So, pricing and negotioation strategies, tips and tricks... Who wants to start sharing their approaches to negotiation?
14:55 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	yes, you must use it together with your password
14:56 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Oh, yes. Of course. So, it's a more sophisticated way to enter an extranet, to make it safer to control who's entering it.
14:56 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	Let me share a graphic joke in connection with the topic that I personally like very much: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EjyEuPqNthY/TyuiOziFvFI/AAAAAAAAAzU/bLhxBboA4es/s1600/how+to+begin+negotiations+with+translation+agencies.jpg
14:57 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	About pricing: some purchase managers will always, always, ask a discount.
14:57 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	So, based on that joke, how do you deal with "nonsense"?
14:57 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	and how do you deal with that Peter? What's your response?
14:57 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	I don't give in.
14:58 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	And what reason(s) do you give to not give in? How do you make them undrestand (or at least try to make them understand)?
14:58 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	excellent joke!
14:58 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Another remark: if a client doesn't accept your price, it does not mean he has found somebody cheaper. He might just decide not to have the translation done.
14:59 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Don't discuss prices. Never discuss a price with clients.
15:00 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	This might be the most important discussion of the day, and they all seem to steer away from it.
15:00 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Thaf figures: in general, translators aren't commercially minded.
15:01 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	I only politely state my conditions
