We worked on creating a database of experienced translators and our search was on for clients too. On the other hand we tried to gain translation orders by making our presence on the Internet through our website and registration on many business portals. On the 24th of March we received our first large order along with an advance payment. This was the time when we were thinking of winding up the company operations after 8 months of promotion and hardly any sale. This order took about 8 months to complete and lots of efforts were put in, being a large order. This enlightened a ray of hope within and we achieved to take a few more orders in the same year.
