    A problem most freelance translators are facing with is how to receive payment. In particular: How to receive payment for small jobs. Many translation agencies are reluctant to pay small fees via wire transfer due to the transaction fees; often they will send you a check instead. And I suppose I don’t have to tell you: The banks charge an enormous commission when you come and want to cash in your check.

    Then along came PayPal …

    Basically PayPal lets you send and receive payment over the Internet. It bases its service on the existing bank and credit card networks, but it is not a bank in itself.

    Registering is free; all you need is an email address. Sending money is free - receiving money however, is not. You pay 3.4 % of the received amount unless you are receiving dollars; in this case you pay 2.9 % of the received amount. Then you have to pay a flat fee for each transaction: 0.35 Euros or 0.30 Dollars. In addition you have to pay a cross boarder fee of 0.5 % - 1.0 % if you receive payment from someone located in another country.

    Then you have to pay a small fee when you withdraw your money to your regular bank account. (Unless your bank is located in the United States; then you don’t have to pay this fee.) How much this is depends on the country you are located in. I for instance live in Switzerland and have to pay 0.50 CHF to withdraw to my account. Banks in countries within EU, except the United Kingdom, all charge 1.0 Euro.

    Lets have a look at an example. I perform a small translation and charge a minimum fee of 20 Euro. 3.4 % of 20 Euro is 0.68 Euro, plus the flat fee of 0.35 Euro. Add the cross boarder fee of 1%, which is

    Are Corporations Doomed to Fail?
    Many people believe that the Public Mega Corporations are eventually doomed to fail and of course there are many reasons for this. One of the most common reasons cited by media is Corporate Malfeasance. Another one which some free-market economists note is that the Stock Market is now a gambling casino and still others make light of the fact that corporate greed from those at the top is out of control. Of course someone once said something interesting about Absolute Power.If any of these comments strike you as interesting topics or you think that any of these points are indeed valid then many might agree with you.

    Effective Medical Billing: Get Paid On Time
    Timely medical claim reimbursement/payments for the medical provider are a serious problem by most of medical practices nowadays. How can a medical practice survive with slow revenue? too many claims denial and rejection? The solution here is to get the collection done as effectively as it can.Empirically, insurance companies will delay or deny claims payments! They are very slow on medical reviews, predetermination and processing claims. I think, that is one of their business strategies in doing business. They are too is running their own business’ revenues. But if you are a good medical biller, you are aggressive and can effectively collect payments in less than the time your provider expects.Having an

    Build Company Value By Buidling a Brand
    Just what is a name worth to a new company? It is really all that important? And why not use the employee suggestion box and simply give the winner a free lunch or a day off? (Hey… sometimes it works!)In fact, a lot of time and research has gone into defining the exact monetary value a good brand name delivers to the bottom line. And while some academicians claim they have actually derived that number (a 7% or greater pricing premium and over 35% greater market capitalization), the benefits actually go way beyond the balance sheet.Brilliant brand names point the way. They create expectations that can “pre-sell” and predispose a customer to buy. They imply a promise that will be met in the experience. Most

    The Importance of Cataloging
    Catalogs are commonly used in the libraries. These catalogs are called the library catalogs. Library catalogs are full of information regarding the resources that can be found inside the library. The information contained in the catalogs is known as the bibliographic record. Now if you want to know the true essence of catalog, you have to understand how they are created or presented. This is where the cataloging process comes to light.What is cataloging? You need to make a distinction between cataloging and catalog printing? Some people conceive these two terms as one. This is not correct. For cataloging is the process by which the librarians observe when making a bibliographic record while catalog printing refe

    Lets have a look at an example. I perform a small translation and charge a minimum fee of 20 Euro. 3.4 % of 20 Euro is 0.68 Euro, plus the flat fee of 0.35 Euro. Add the cross boarder fee of 1%, which is 0.20 Euro. So, of my 20 Euros PayPal takes 1.20 Euros. In addition comes the fee of 0.50 CHF for withdrawing the money to my regular bank account.

    If the agency sent me a check instead of using PayPal, my bank would charge 7.50 CHF (4.80 Euros) for cashing the check for me. Each bank has its own fees for cashing checks and receiving wire transfers. But for smaller amounts PayPal is definitely the cheapest way of accepting payment. You will have to do a small calculation and see how large amounts you can receive before the PayPal fees exceed the fees your bank charges.

    But is it safe?

    Most freelance translators using this way of receiving payment are satisfied with the service and have had no problem with PayPal. I have only heard of one-two translators having their accounts frozen by PayPal for no legitimate reason.

    Some negative aspects of PayPal

    The problems with PayPal only start when you have a problem, so to speak. Resolving a problem can be very time-consuming and frustrating, and in many cases no solution is reached. Their customer support is not exactly something to brag about. It is very difficult to get behind their wall of auto responders and answering machines!

    Another thing to be aware of are scams. There are numerous scams around, from people sending out emails pretending to b
