Chasse Consulting Announces New Translation Division

Austin, TX, June 22, 2011 - Chasse Consulting: Sales Strategies, Inc., a leading provider of sales performance consulting for Fortune 500 companies, announced an expansion into the translation arena this summer, bringing new jobs to Austin previously outsourced overseas. The new service will be available as an add-on package or stand-alone product.

“For years we’ve partnered closely with our clients to provide cost-effective sales solutions that enhance the sales cycle and effectively generate revenue growth,” said Chasse Consulting president and CEO Beverly Chasse. “Our new translation department will allow us to augment our core product offerings and seasoned staff with an even greater capability to broaden and exceed customer needs.”

Previously, Chasse clients were forced to send material to foreign and/or third party contractors to have projects translated for non-English speaking audiences. The move to bring translation in house as a bundled service or singular product arms Chasse with the added flexibility of meeting customer needs in a more convenient manner that eliminates outside agencies and added costs. Chasse has hired Rochelle Carlin as the new unit’s director.

“We’re happy to stay in the company tradition of attracting top-quality talent while bringing additional jobs to Austin.” said Chasse. “Rochelle boasts more than 10 years experience in the translation and project management field, and we look forward to leveraging her quality expertise in tandem with our product solutions to continue expanding our robust portfolio of services.”

A year after relocating its offices, Chasse Consulting has seen exponential growth, having more than quadrupled its staff. The company spent July filling its new divisional needs, hiring translators with specializations in French, German, Chinese and Japanese, with additional hires for other languages to come within the year.

“When a company sends their translations to a traditional language service provider (LSP), the LSP’s main concern is purchasing, from a freelancer, the least expensive translation option at the fastest turnaround possible to ensure profits,” said Carlin. “At Chasse Consulting, our focus is on quality. Our team is here to collaborate closely with the client to ensure that the highest levels of quality and customer service are attained.”

Sharing the Love:
Chasse is MC at Manos de Cristo Charity Gala

AUSTIN, TX, February 15, 2011 – In the spirit of love and Valentine’s Day, Beverly Chasse, president and CEO of Chasse Consulting Sales Strategies Inc., served as master of ceremonies for Austin-local Manos de Cristo’s 2011 All You Need is Love Gala, helping to raise funds for the non-profit’s efforts to provide the central Texas area with a safe place for the homeless and working poor of Austin to come for emergency food and clothing, oral health care and education.

“Your money is more than school supplies…it’s more than a bag of groceries… it’s more than free dental services,” said Chasse in her opening speech. “…it is about eliminating the judgment and social stigma wrapped around how we look verses how good our soul is…[so] trust in the knowledge [that] you [will] contribute to saving lives. Those thinking about giving, please do. We need you.”

And indeed the group gave, as the night’s 194 attendees were able to raise more funds than last year.

That gala, in its sixth year, was held at the Renaissance Austin hotel Saturday, February 12. An auction was accompanied with live music and dancing by The Pictures, an Austin-based cover band.

Chasse Consulting has been an active supporter of Manos’ charity efforts in recent years, participating annually in its back to school events.

Plans in 2011 involve expanding the non-profit’s charitable initiatives and growing local involvement.

“There is a saying: We are all angels with just one wing, and when we embrace each other, we can fly,” said Chasse in the closing remarks of her speech. “And this is why we need you…Manos is an angel with just one wing, and with your embrace, Manos is an organization that will fly.”

Helping Hands: Chasse preps kids for back-to-school

AUSTIN, TX, August 9, 2010 — Employees of Austin-based business consultancy Chasse Consulting Sales Strategies Inc. were on hand Monday to volunteer at the annual Manos de Cristo Back-to-School Program.

The event allows more than 2,000 pre-kindergarten to fifth grade students and their parents to visit with Manos volunteers to choose school supplies, backpacks and clothing for the upcoming school year. Chasse employees offered their time as part of the company’s annual charity initiative.

“It’s an experience I am wonderfully grateful for,” Chasse technical writer Sheryl Floyd said. “In many ways I think, as employees, we gained more satisfaction than the kids did, simply because not only did we send them off with supplies but with smiles too, and, hopefully, excitement for the new year.”

Community service is a guiding principle of the Chasse company mission. Employees are encouraged annually to dedicate 10 percent of their skill or resources to a charitable event of their choosing, a company practice since 2002. President and CEO Beverly Chasse, a current member of Manos de Cristos board of directors, is also heavily involved in community service, including work with the West Hills Presbyterian Church and various national and international philanthropic organizations like World Vision, Charity: Water and St. Jude Children’s Hospital. She also recently spent two weeks in Zambia, Africa where she met with locals to discuss the need for education around AIDS and the need to address key issues such as the lack of food and a sanitary water supply.

“Manos de Cristo provides critical programs to our Austin impoverished. To give back to this community of wonderful people is simply the right thing to do, “ Chasse said. “As an organization, the Chasse Consulting team thrives on working with Manos de Cristo. It is a blessing that we have the means help, and I hope that more people discover this wonderful charity.”
