Today marks the 7th anniversary of launching Moncur Consulting. Another year has gone by way too fast, and I find myself blessed with plenty of work and some time to enjoy our Minnesota summer with my two boys: The youngest is home from college and the oldest stops by every few days to work on a project car or just to say hi.
As I reflect on these last few years, I am incredibly grateful for having had the opportunity to balance running my business and launching my boys into adulthood. Despite the long hours and some wild rush projects, I have usually been able to work around their schedules, so I could be available when they needed me, attend school events, cheer on competitions, and travel with them. I hope my path has inspired them to follow their dreams and build a work-life balance that works for them.

A short history of our translation, transcreation, and localization work
We started in 2019 by localizing corporate communications and lab testing materials for global markets, both for leading Minnesota companies.
In 2020, 90% of our work turned to translating COVID-related messaging at lightning speeds to help ethnic communities in the US stay healthy and informed with every new development.
Since then, we’ve touched a wide variety of verticals, such as cultural/global name & logo evaluations, legal, finance, healthcare, public health, animal health, agriculture, conservation and animal welfare, political campaigns, consumer research, consumer products, e-commerce, aerospace, automotive, machinery, technology, IT, franchising, tariffs, education, sailing, and pet toys. We have touched almost all marketing media, incl. brochures, fliers, posters, social media images, emails, websites, eBooks, and videos with closed captions or in-language supers and voice-overs.
Making a difference
While economic uncertainty, geopolitical upheaval, funding cuts, and AI have certainly hurt our industry and our business, we have seen a more recent uptick of high-stakes and high-impact work: high-tech translations, marketing transcreations, and public outreach campaigns.
Especially in light of today’s local and global challenges, our favorite projects are purpose-driven initiatives where we can contribute to meaningful change and a sense of belonging with impactful content for audiences with limited English proficiency, at home and across the globe.
Gratitude for your partnership, trust, and support
None of our success would have been possible without our clients who have placed their trust in us over the last seven years or without our global team members who help deliver the kind of top-notch work we pride ourselves in.
