...but who needs to learn marketing and sales in order to consistently land direct, premium clients and prosper (especially in the age of AI)?
info@traductionslion.com
Like so many translators, I started out in the field with a passion for words, languages and cultures. But I soon learned that passion and even translation skill are not enough to land the kinds of clients that enable you to make a great living and enjoy greater financial stability, schedule flexibility, and peace of mind.
Even after earning a bachelor's degree in translation, I floundered and struggled with business skills and the selling side of things. I barely made ends meet. In the early 2010s, I lived in a run-down part of town and pinched pennies just to be able to cover my expenses and get by. And for years, I had to have a second job to support me.
I know what it's like to be good at what you do but lack the marketing savvy and self-confidence to step out of the shadows, approach direct clients in a comfortable way, secure accounts, and make a solid living.
It's awful to feel financially insecure—and this is much worse when you have a family to support!
✅ Establish clear business goals and client avatars
✅ Brand yourself like a BOSS
✅ Showcase your unique value proposition
✅ Master inbound AND outbound marketing
✅ Identify and approach direct clients with confidence
✅ Automate your client-getting, retention and referral routines
✅ Package and present your prices in a way that makes clients thankful to pay premium rates
✅ Get clients chasing after YOU
Today, I make a six-figure income translating for premium, direct clients who seek me out every month.
Frankly, it's amazing—I never thought I would make such a good living doing what I love.
The way I got there is simple, but not easy: I spent thousands of dollars every year on business coaches and marketing courses and then adapted what I learned to make it introvert- and translator-friendly.
The good news for you is that you don't need to take 10 years and a small fortune to get where I am.
Every year, I coach ambitious translators to six figures using proven methods that work in our field.
And the best part is that it's 100% translator-friendly, non-salesy, and (dare I say) sometimes even fun!

My name is Joachim Lépine and I am a certified translator with a master's degree in education.
I only teach things that actually work and that I'm passionate about.
I hold degrees from Plymouth State University, Université de Sherbrooke, and Concordia University, and my translations have been published by the UN, NATO, McGill, and many other prestigious institutions around the world.
I love what I do, and I love coaching and helping other translators!
"This course is packed with so much value, I'm glad I registered.
Early on, I used a networking tip given in one of the group sessions and landed a contract from that account two weeks later, just like that! I'm still smiling at how wonderfully it went. It felt like magic to me!
Joe is a thoughtful, supportive, and knowledgeable expert. He helps you think outside the (extrovert marketing) box as a fellow introvert so you and your business can thrive, too."

What if I can't make some of the sessions?
All sessions will be recorded and you will have one-year access to the replays : )
Why should I take this course over others?
There are other marketing courses out there, but very few are tailored to the needs of translators.
The few courses that offer a similar level of marketing support typically cost $3,000 to $6,000. (Plus... the $1,497 registration is in Canadian dollars!)
I would know, because I've taken some of them!
And for only $1,497, you are getting translator-specific advice—not generic marketing mumbo jumbo that doesn't work for translators.
How will this course help me get clients?
Squeak to Roar is a comprehensive business course for translators and will teach you the exact routines that my coaching clients and I use to consistently land top clients.
No one can guarantee that you will land X number of clients as a result of their course.
But with Squeak to Roar, you are learning skills that will last a lifetime and dramatically up your marketing game.
Is there a payment plan?
Yes, you can pay in 3 monthly instalments. Zero penalty.
What's the time commitment?
A handful of hours per week to attend the group session (if you can), watch the videos, and do the exercises. That's it! My goal is to bring you from point A to point B as quickly and smoothly as possible.
Is this right for me?
This course is for serious, professional translators only. If you are willing to attend the sessions and do the work from April to June, this course is for you.
Is there a guarantee?
Absolutely! If you complete all the modules, calls and exercises are not 100% satisfied with this course and the results for your business, I will personally work with you until you are (within one year of registering).
This course is not about acquiring more information. It's about working together and getting RESULTS!
