Default Back to purely technical vs. marketing support

I agree with Clare and it goes back to my point: would a prospect be prone to accept a marketing advice? For very large sites I would also offer that service with the chance for only translating/localizing a certain part of the site (e.g. Home page, About us, Contact us pages, etc.), up to a plan to have the whole site translated in subsequent stages.

Have you any experience with this approach? Have you ever been successful?

So far, I find that it takes patience and a long "educational/training" process with the prospect.
