    Hello, Tess!

    First, I wanted to tell you that I am a big fan of your podcast and your book The Marketing Cookbook for Translators. It is incredible the amount of skills that can be learned from them.

    Second, it was very exciting to find out my coach is the guest in this episode. I have already learned about some productivity tools by the way, Abby Finereader and Dropbox.

    Lastly, thank you for all the things you share with other freelancers. It is inspiration for us to find other ways to give back to our profession the same way you do. Greetings from San Diego, CA.

    Sincerely,
