Top marks and podium places for TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.

December 30th, 2011

Team TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.

The year 2011 saw the team from TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. in pursuit of awards and participating in a veritable gold rush. The popular „Gold coin for Facebook fans of Professor Tell“ monthly contest initiated the gold rush, keeping its fan community on tenterhooks each month.

The first award for TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.  arrived in the spring. Roman Probst reached the finals of the ‘Inno-Slams’ at the Tourism Pool Innovation Forum in Baden with his „Client Catcher“ partnership model. Motivated by positive feedback, the certified translation company carried out a satisfaction survey involving its 100 largest corporate clients. The results were gratifying, with a mark of 5.13 out of 6 for content, tone and style of translations as well as for their target-group affinity, precise terminology and suitability for the intended purpose.

Buoyed up by this success, TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. struck gold twice in the summer with Professor Tell. At SuisseEMEX’11, the largest Swiss trade fair for marketing and communication, we won the „Call for Eye-Catcher“ award, and the Professor Tell campaign made the Top 10 in the „Swiss Social Media Award“. The autumn took on a golden sheen with TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.’s qualification for the final round of the selection process for the federally sponsored „CTI Start-Up Label“ and expansion of the company’s corporate structure with the addition of Business Development and Sales Management departments.

Carmen hits the bull’s-eye and wins gold in November

December 2nd, 2011

Carmen Schafroth

She had never shot with a crossbow before but she hit the bull’s-eye nevertheless in the contest. Ms. Carmen Schafroth from Balsthal in Solothurn is the happy winner of the gold bullion coin in November. The mother-of-two enjoys surfing the internet and chanced upon the Facebook page of Professor Tell.

„Of course, I’m really happy that I won the gold coin! I received two gold coins from my grandmother for my confirmation,” the part-time employee recalled. However, these were stolen from her, which is why she does not plan on keeping her new gold coin with her jewellery – she will display it in the living room. Although Carmen is not actively following the price of gold, she knows exactly how much her golden win is worth.

The winner of Professor Tell’s gold coin in October started practicing with a crossbow very early on

Silas Eichenberger

Silas Eichenberger became a Facebook fan of Professor Tell just three weeks ago. „When a friend of mine liked one of the items on Professor Tell’s Facebook profile, I clicked on it and became a fan, too,“ recalls Silas. It proved to be a wise decision since the polygraph apprentice is now the winner of October’s gold bullion coin. Although Silas has never shot with a real crossbow, the nineteen-year-old loved playing with a toy crossbow complete with rubber-suction arrows as a child. He has no plans to sell the gold coin but intends to keep it as an investment in a little wooden case behind glass. „I will definitely tell my family and friends about my good fortune and that it really pays off to become a Facebook fan of Professor Tell.“

Professor Tell will be giving away another gold coin in November. Become one of his Facebook fans and make the most of your chance to win!

Gold-coin winner observer of price of gold for years

October 12th, 2011

Tamara Staubli has been observing the price of gold for years because her father-in-law always receives gold bullion coins. „However, they were stolen from him last year,” Staubli said. All the more reason for her to rejoice at winning the September gold coin from Professor Tell. The administrative clerk and mother of two happened upon TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. by chance. „I have relatives in America and was looking for an online dictionary. I found TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. and became a Facebook fan of Professor Tell,” Staubli recalled.

She plans to save the gold bullion coin. „It will be a nest egg for our two daughters,” the happy winner declared.

While on a trekking holiday, Thomas Lengenfelder was surprised to hear of his golden win. „I’m overjoyed to have won the August gold coin from Professor Tell,” said Lengenfelder. He became acquainted with TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. five years ago at EMEX. At that time, Professor Tell had not yet appeared on the scene. „However, when the character was created last year, Roman Probst convinced me to become a  Facebook fan of Professor Tell,” the purchasing and office manager explained.

Lengenfelder was unable to attend EMEX’11 due to illness, but he had already met Professor Tell a year earlier at his EMEX premiere. „Professor Tell made such a positive impression on visitors that you couldn’t pass by without stopping,” Lengenfelder laughed. “And as a reliable and unerring marksman, Professor Tell is the perfect ambassador for the texts and translations from TRANSLAION-PROBST Ltd.”

The ecstatic winner already knows what he will do with his gold coin. „It’s going straight into the safe. With gold prices on the rise, this coin is going to appreciate a lot.”

Professor Tell will be giving out another gold coin in September. Become a fan of his on Facebook for your chance to win!

July winner to give gold coin to goddaughter

August 10th, 2011

Markus Röösli

Markus Röösli, winner of July’s gold bullion coin from our very own Professor Tell, once had a beard very much like Tell’s and had also already shot with a crossbow. “My father had a miniature crossbow at home. He would let us shoot with it every once in a while,” the online editor from Zurich said. Markus happened upon Professor Tell by chance while searching for contests online and in social networks. “I studied at the same university as TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. CEO Roman Probst so I knew of TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. and was a Facebook fan of Professor Tell.” Becoming a fan has really paid off for him, and Markus already knows what he is going to do with his gold coin. “When I was a child, I was given a gold coin by my godfather. That’s why I now want to give my prize to my goddaughter.”

If Markus wants to, he can thank Professor Tell in person in the near future by visiting TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.’s stand at SuisseEMEX’11. “Thanks to free tickets from TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd., I can even do it for free,” the happy winner laughed.

Friend tells gold-coin winner about Professor Tell

July 13th, 2011
Christine Troncado

Christine Troncado

Although she may not have met Professor Tell personally yet, Christine Trincado became a fan of his on Facebook after hearing about him from a friend – and now she has won June’s gold-coin giveaway. “I’m really pleased and I’m going to tell all my friends about it,” commented the Ticino native with Spanish roots.

She has already fired shots at Tell’s target during the online game but she has never held a real crossbow in her hands. The next opportunity to do so will be at SuisseEMEX at the end of August, where fans can meet Professor Tell in person and take a shot with his crossbow. “Unfortunately, I’ll be on holiday then,” the future kindergarten teacher explained, but she already has a spot picked out for her gold coin. “I’m going to display it on my desk so that when I am working I will always be reminded of the luck that Professor Tell brought to me.”

The team from TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd. wishes Christine continued luck, especially during her final examinations. The written part has been completed already, and now she just has to teach a sample class for the examiners from Bern.

While the dollar has reached a historic low, the price of gold is steadily rising – which makes Nicole Moor twice as lucky for winning May’s Swiss gold bullion coin. „I fired the crossbow at TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.’s stand at aiciti, became a fan of Professor Tell on Facebook and am really happy that I won the gold bullion coin,” said the journalism student. „The crossbow was quite difficult to handle, but firing it with Professor Tell was a fun experience,” Nicole Moor recalls. The 21-year-old plans on displaying the gold bullion coin proudly in her room and will ask an artist friend if she would like to make a frame for it. „That way all of my guests will see the gold coin and I can tell them all about TRANSLATION-PROBST Ltd.’s golden history.”
