Dear Readers,

This is the greatest dilema that prospective clients have when they come to have their websites, sales page, voice over their materials and others done is: What now? What if somebody calls? Nobody on my staff speaks Spanish…..
Well, if you own a small or internet based business, there are some solutions:

1) Hire a service which many companies like ours provide, which is a voice mail system in Spanish and our operator will retrieve messages throghout the day and return calls…..how about the next step, they ask?
A teleconference, an effective sales page will close the deal.

2)Have your current staff members trained by an online sales specialist, service also offered by our company

3) Hire a bilingual staff member through diversity website or others which offer bilingual prospects.

The bottom line is get started, work on a plan with your language consultant and move towards opening the doors to this powerful market!

We would like to see you take the first step!

Comment and ask questions!

Dear Readers,

One more year is ending and I decided to share some of my favorite holiday songs in Portuguese. Please see attached Bate o Sino, the link to video on youtube.

Jingle Bells- Bate o Sino
Bate o sino pequenino, sino de Belém
Já nasceu o Deus Menino para o nosso bem
Paz na Terra pede o sino alegre a cantar
Abençoe o Deus Menino este nosso lar

Hoje a noite é bela, vamos à capela
Sob a luz da vela, felizes a cantar
Ao soar o sino, sino pequenino
Vem o Deus menino, nos abençoar.

Refrão:
Bate o sino pequenino, sino de Belém
Já nasceu o Deus Menino para o nosso bem
Paz na Terra pede o sino alegre a cantar
Abençoe o Deus Menino este nosso lar

Vamos minha gente, vamos à Belém
Vamos ver Maria e Jesus também

Dear Readers,

We’re pleased to announce that we will be launching a free 4 class program at no cost to test our new online program. We have 12 online subscribers who offered to test the program. We’re looking for 20 subscribers to complete the trial. The program launch was delayed to after the holidays due to some issues with the back end of the program.
If you wish to sign up, please reply to this post.
The subscribers who confirm their participation will receive a password on Jan 10th, 2010.
The program is designed for adults who wish to develop or start learning Portuguese at the conversation level. Our program includes soap operas, songs, videos and more to ensure we’re not teaching merely sentences, repetition of content like the most expensive programs in the market do. We want to ensure we’re teaching live language in a fun and effective way.
I will be personally conducting the research and teaching the four classes!

Please spread the word and bring more people to try our new program!

Abraços,
Claudia Krusch
