Instead, I decided to try using the ProZ translators for getting in touch with potential publishers. The relevant projects/books will have to be translated or localised, that means additional work to us...
Now, is any of you in publishing? Please contact me if so.
Sincerely,

Oleg, as a manager you minght know that the best way to reach a publisher is to work through the agents not translators (even if they were / are published).From my own experience I knwo that at least in the States a through-agent approach is a must.

Yes, agent are helpful, but they mostly charge a fee, and when dealing with FSU publishers want a downpayment, often rather substantial for us. So far none of them hasn\'t been able to help.

Many foreign publishers specifically state that they work directly with other publishers and not through agencies.
