I believe in having healthy habits like meditation and exercise. I try to hike often, like once a week, because I love nature. I sometimes do it by myself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my free time, I hang out with friends. I try to travel, but it\u2019s mostly for work-related purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I actually graduated with a degree in industrial engineering, not majoring in languages. I worked as an industrial engineer for some time, managing strategic sales and teams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where I got started in understanding the demands and pains of customers and coming up with solutions for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I have always had a passion for languages and culture since childhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why He Created Tomedes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After I closed my second venture, I began researching industries where I could see potential in growing a business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I decided to create a translation company because I knew the digital age would lead to many businesses expanding internationally, leading to a demand for language and translation services.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, as I mentioned, I have been fascinated with cultures and languages since childhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So even though I didn\u2018t have a background as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nichepursuits.com\/make-money-translating-online\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">translator<\/a>, I was determined to explore this passion in the translation industry and aid businesses to grow and broaden their horizons in the markets they\u2018re expanding into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when I first entered the translation sector in 2007, it was an underdeveloped industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I saw a lot of gaps wherein I believed my translation company,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomedes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Tomedes<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, could accommodate what was lacking in the customer experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a tech-driven company, we have used several tools and translation technologies that would aid us in our translation process over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tomedes\u2019 first project was 19 cents, which I could never forget, even after 16 years.

So our marketing strategy is to create relevant and valuable content to bolster our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nichepursuits.com\/seo-for-startups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEO strategy<\/a> and help establish Tomedes\u2019 brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has always been our marketing objective and has yielded impressive results over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a translation company, we offer multilingual SEO research to businesses looking to expand into another market. So it is not surprising that our website is also available in another language.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many businesses fail to consider that multilingual SEO follows the same principles, but some keywords will be different, even if it is in English.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, in the US, \u201ccellphone\u201d is a keyword, but in Germany, it would be \u201chandy,\u201d while in Belgium, \u201cgsm\u201d or \u201cportable.\u201d So before you translate your website to make it more accessible to international users, conduct your research first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Importance of SEO<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SEO is vital to our marketing as it helps our target audience and potential clients by making it easier for them to find us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>Because of this, our strategy has revolved around a customer-centric approach.

It was about how to make money, and it wasn\u2019t directly related to our industry because we thought it would naturally attract links and increase traffic to our website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It failed because we didn\u2019t consider that Google examines your website\u2019s expertise and determines the value of the content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From this experience, we learned to understand our target readers and create high-quality content that's <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nichepursuits.com\/topical-authority-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">relevant to our niche<\/a> and to the readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Email List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our email list is tied to our blog.

I\u2019m reading some biographies like <em>Shoe Dog<\/em>, by Phil Knight.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other books that I could recommend for those just beginning their journey as entrepreneurs are <em>Never Split the Difference<\/em>, by Chris Voss, <em>Principles<\/em>, by Ray Dalio, and <em>Measure What Matters<\/em>, by John Doerr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Go-To Tools<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since my business is a translation company, we use various tools to quickly transform content from one language to another while ensuring its quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the tools that we use is machine translation engines that help our native translators translate content efficiently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also use AI tools, language-learning machines, and other technologies that aid us in better connecting with our clients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the tools that we use for our translation and localization projects, such as MemoQ, SDL Trados, MadCap, Poedit, Smartling, and Crowdin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Biggest Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The pandemic brought many challenges; part of it is the global recession looming over our heads.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a leader, I have to push through these uncertain times and be transparent with everyone about the company\u2018s situation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We survived the 2008 Great Recession by focusing on our strengths and enhancing our customer experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We do this by creating good rapport with all our business clients by identifying their pains and needs while coming up with solutions to their problems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if there are issues regarding their translations, we immediately answer their concerns and assist in implementing the 1-year guarantee policy available to all Tomedes\u2019 translation projects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If they have financial issues, we negotiate with them and offer machine translation post-editing as an alternative.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I personally encourage my employees to actively listen to clients and vendors by being genuinely curious about the vendors\u2019 and clients\u2019 goals, objectives, and challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>Despite being the CEO and founder of Tomedes, I am not always right, which is why I listen to everyone, like my employees, vendors, and clients, to understand better how we could improve our management and customer experience.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The market is constantly changing, and the only way to stay ahead is to learn and not assume what our customers want or where things will go. Adapting is vital for any business that wants to thrive and grow in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Greatest Accomplishment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I\u2018m proud of about Tomedes is our excellent customer experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With our international customer support team, we serve over 95,000 business clients and have 98% aggregated customer satisfaction across various review sites.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, we were ranked #1 by Clutch in the Top Global Business Services Providers; meanwhile, GoodFirms placed us among the Top Translation Companies in the United States with a review score of 5.0.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Globes and Statista have also recognized Tomedes as one of Israel\u2019s top 100 fastest-growing companies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, most recently, we were acknowledged by Slator as one of the largest and best translation companies worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2018re proud of our recognition from different organizations, and we owe it to the trust and support of our business clients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And we\u2018re not stopping there, as we continuously find new ways to aid our customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, we have created several subsidiary companies like<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lextranscribe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Lextranscribe<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.formaltranslations.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Formal Translations<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.machinetranslation.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Machine Translation<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> that support communication services for various fields beyond what a translation company can offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We created these platforms last year based on the services that our clients needed. For example, Tomedes has always been providing legal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nichepursuits.com\/work-from-home-transcription-jobs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">transcription services<\/a> because sometimes our clients would prefer to have all their legal transcriptions and legal translations from one site to make it more streamlined.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also created separate domains to make our websites more niche-focused and integrate our SEO strategy more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What He Wishes He Knew When He Started<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I wish I had avoided getting too wrapped up in over-planning.\u00a0When you\u2019re starting a business, you have to be flexible and adapt to situations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where your gut instincts will be vital. Trust it and have confidence in your decision to see them through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Main Mistake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, I have made a lot of mistakes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned, I had two business ventures that weren\u2018t successful. What\u2018s important is that you fail a lot and learn from them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>Although it\u2018s always good to get it right the first time, there are things that you can only know by making mistakes.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the true measure of how much you have accomplished with your business is defined by the cycle time between failures and successes you have made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">His Advice for Other Entrepreneurs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I started Tomedes as a remote-first translation company of five people to save money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, it\u2018s easier than ever before to start an online business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I landed my first few clients, I had to make many cold calls, and sometimes, I\u2018d get discouraged and question myself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I had to motivate myself through tough times to be persistent, which paid off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>So my advice is not to get discouraged if you do not immediately see the results you want. Stay focused on your goals. Also, learn what niche or market gaps your company can accommodate.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I started by focusing on fulfilling specialized services like legal translations. I approached law firms and companies in the legal industry while networking extensively to create a team of highly-skilled translators.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, another reason I chose to have my business remote-first is that I could work with translators from all over the world and find the right people to handle projects in line with their skills.<\/p>\n<style>\r\n    .lwrp.link-whisper-related-posts{\r\n        margin-top: 80px;\nmargin-bottom: 40px;\nmargin-left: 0px;
