Copywriting services required<br />

Purpose German copywriter/translator<br />

In the past, original English texts and some French texts were translated by contractors into<br />

German. The result was a close translation of the original text without consideration of<br />

cultural differences. The texts needed considerable correction from the manager of the<br />

Swiss German office and the director of <strong>Medair</strong> Germany.<br />

The goal of this copywriting service is to write a high-quality German text that reflects the<br />

communication goals of the original English or French texts, while taking into consideration<br />

the cultural differences of the Swiss German and German audiences.<br />

Because the content and factual information in the original English is validated and<br />

approved for external distribution by the Operations Department, factual information must<br />

be accurately translated, without variance, into the German version.<br />

Some additional German copywriting of texts not originating in English or French will be<br />

required.<br />
