Where appointments fit in translation work

Most of a translator's time is focused work on texts, and the price is usually set per word or per page after seeing the documents. Appointments still matter around that work. Business clients want a short call to explain the context, the audience and the deadline. Private clients needing certified translations of birth certificates, diplomas or court papers often come in person to drop off or show originals and to collect the stamped result. Larger projects benefit from a terminology briefing before you start.

A booking page lets clients book those short moments on the slots you choose, instead of arriving unannounced or calling during your focus hours.

Calls, drop-offs and collections

On Book, each type of appointment is a service with its own description, and a price if it's charged, and you open slots for each at the length it takes. Use the description to say which languages you work with, what documents to bring and whether originals are needed. Clients can add a note with the language pair and document type. The translation itself isn't booked by the hour; you quote it after seeing the documents.

Setting up your page

  1. List your appointments: scoping call, drop-off, collection, review meeting, briefing.
  2. Open short slots at the start or end of the day to protect focus time.
  3. Book collections yourself when a translation is ready.
  4. Share your link on your website, directory listing and email signature.

Clients book without an account, with their name, email and phone. They get a confirmation email, and you get an email for every new booking. Reschedule or cancel from your bookings list and let the client know, and sync your calendar with Google, iPhone or Mac. Book doesn't send quotes, receive documents or take payments. It costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited bookings and services, no commission, no contract.
