Things have been too busy.  I am working too hard and need to achieve a better balance.  We have done some great things for many websites.  We are expanding internationally with translator usa ,org and we are focussing on translator chicago to start.  We are also working to develop a website for telephone translator work.

All of this plus our regular clients is keeping us too busy.  We have hired some more staff but that only makes things worse in the short run while they get up to speed.

Lots of exciting things happening

Comment Published at 14:0514:050 comments0 comments8 Visits8 VisitsReport

I missed my March blog entry.  The kids are growing by the day.  They all had their first communion over the weekend.  The eldest did a speech in front of 200+ people.  She is 10 1/2 and did a great job.  We were all very proud.

We bought a house.  It is a fixer upper but we think we got a good deal.  Still happy with the purchase.  No buyers remorse yet. 

On the businesse side of things, the translation company is going slowly but still has good prospects.  The school offering Melbourne language classes in Melbourne is also going well. 

We are aiming to raise a lot of money for not for profits using a new website that helps not for profits with donation management.  We are very excited about this because we believe that we can really help some of the causes that we believe in.  We can also be selective and not support some that I think are actually destructive.  The site itself is not 100% complete, but we are getting there.

We started another Division of the business to offer tutoring services.  We launched the site and had the normal bugs.  Things are sorting out and we are now offering the tutors.  It is a little different to other tutoring sites in that we offer the normal types of tutors such as a VCE tutor or a University tutor but we also offer the opportunity for coaches and teachers to sign up and offer their services. 

Lots more happening, but I will update later.

Have a great April.

Setting up translation website

Comment Published at 11:0211:020 comments0 comments10 Visits10 VisitsReport

I am setting up a few websites at the moment.  Having ebusinesses allows me to work from home and spend more time with the kids.  I have just set up translationz.com.au.  It is used if you need an interpreter or translator.  Examples of some of the languages are:

korean translation

My company is Phigit.  Always open to provide you with advice on how using technology can help you as a parent.
