Recommended Transcription Services for long audio?

Andyhenry · 04-20-2010, 10:24 AM

Hi,

I've seen some threads in the past mentioning transcription services and I've used them several times in the past, but I'm currently doing interviews and I'm going to end up with a LOT of audio.

So - do you have a recommendation for a transcription service that can cope easily with say 10 hours of audio interviews?

I'm a little paranoid that it's going to end up costing a lot to get these transcribed when I'm only considering transcriptions because people have said before that they like a written version of products like audio and video.

But if it's going to cost $1000 to create this alternative and lower perceived value version - is it worth doing?

Ive just used a freelancer of Guru and she was excellent and very low priced, very accurate on a Skype interview

Hi Andy,

In case you have not found anyone, I can help you with your transcription needs. I have over 20 years of experience and my rates are $50 per audio hour, which is less than the norm, but quality is not compromised.

I do not outsource overseas and I have worked with several internet marketers; Eric Louviere, Folusho Orokunle, and Howie Schwartz just to name a few.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of help to you now or down the road.

Sincerely,

Kim B.
