Does anybody take these polls seriously???
I thought they were just a bit of fun...

Quite a few of my clients have been referred to me. Last year I got an order from a referral from someone who was referred to me, so that makes a whole chain of referral. One of my very first clients, who is also a friend, has referred me to at least three different people, two of whom I have worked with. I have also referred translators into other languages to her.
