Jul 17, Affordable, Reliable Transcription Services

I recently had an inquiry from a potential client who had tried two other people to transcribe her dissertation interviews before contacting us. One was a friend of hers who wanted to earn some extra money. I guess several weeks went by before she finally received a partially completed transcript full of errors, with an apology from her friend saying she had no idea how time consuming transcription work was! I guess she next tried one of the many transcription services in India. While she received this next transcript back much sooner than the previous one, she was not happy with the quality. Fortunately at this point she received a recommendation to our transcription service by a former, satisfied and happy client of ours. She said she was looking for affordable, reliable transcription services. I assured her she had finally found the right place. We gave her project the personalized attention we give to all our assignments. She received all 20 of her dissertation interviews back in two weeks, and she was thrilled with the quality. The best part is we received an inquiry today that was a referral from her!

We joined the United States Association of Professional Investigators this week. We're very excited about being a member of this organization and look forward to networking with private investigators. They are some of our favorite transcription service clients. We actually did some work for the vice president, Randy Torgerson, who told me about the organization.

Mar 17, Dictation Tips

Tue, 17 Mar 2009 17:17:55 GMT

When dictating letters and memos for transcription, please keep these things in mind.

Background noises
Be aware that TVs, radios, office machines, fans, air conditioners, and others talking can all cause background noise that can be a distraction to the transcriptionist when transcribing your dictation.

Speech
Speak slowly and enunciate clearly. Try not to breathe too deeply.

Spellings
Spell out any names of people, cities, streets, et cetera.

Do be concise in what you want to say.

NEVER, EVER record in a restaurant.

Never eat or drink during dictation.

Feb 23, Outsourcing Transcription

Mon, 23 Feb 2009 16:50:46 GMT
In these tough economic times when many companies of all sizes are being forced to downsize, utilizing a transcription service is a great way to save money. Since you are not hiring employees when you use transcription services, you are not responsible for any employer taxes or employee health benefits, vacations or sick days. When times are slow you do not pay for employees trying to find something to do to justify their paychecks. You only pay for work produced on an as-needed basis.
