Content: Transcriptionist

TeeNee · 08-15-2008, 12:44 AM

**9/23/08** Update on What You Get** I neglected to add what
is included in the rate for transcription:

1. Proofreading for accuracy
2. Research of terms for proper use and spelling
3. Formatting to your specifications in a Word document

No one is 100% perfect or accurate, but the transcripts that leave
my outbox are ready to send to your readers, as long as your audio
was clear and understandable. We will add header and footer information
if you wish as well. Just wanted to clear this up--little or no extra work
will need to be done on your end when you get a transcript from me and
my team.

But we can also do verbatim and include everything! This is helpful if you're
editing a video and using the transcript to navigate the content.**

************************************************** **

Offering your information in many different formats is very valuable.
People all learn and prefer to take in information in various ways, so
it's important, to keep your list members/clients satisfied, to give them
what they want.

My specialty is turning any recording into a typed document that is
readable or printable. For example, if you did an interview with someone
and recorded it, you can send the recording to me and I will type it into
a script.

Think about your clients who may be hearing impaired and won't be
able to listen to a recording. They will be able to gain the same knowledge
as those who can hear the recording; only they will be reading it instead.

I can accept many different digital and analog formats, including mp3, wav,
videos, CDs, DVDs, and more. Your recording will be transcribed and a Word
document returned to you that has been proofread for accuracy, terms have
been checked for proper use and spelling, and it can be formatted to
your specifications.

I have been working with Internet marketers and fellow Warriors for almost
5 years, so I definitely know the "lingo"! You won't get the words "paper clip"
and "pay-per-click" confused in your transcript. I don't use any voice recognition
software--your recordings are transcribed by actual humans typing away on
a keyboard.

My transcripts are the best in the business, guaranteed. I really enjoy working
with Warriors, so if you need anything transcribed, please contact me for a quote.
I do have a special Warrior-Only rate.

If you ever have questions about transcripts or even how to make the best
recordings, please send me an e-mail or PM. I look forward to hearing from you!

Please can you post your rates here.

dominic patric · 08-18-2008, 05:20 PM

can you please show any sample just to evaluate your performance.

TeeNee · 08-20-2008, 08:29 AM

Thanks to Ben for his request. I sent him my rate chart via e-mail.

For Dominic and others who may be interested, I've attached a sample 4-page transcript for your reading pleasure. As you'll notice, it flows very smoothly, even though there may have been flaws in speaking. This was taken from an actual transcript but all names and identifying details have been changed.

I also proudly submit this page from my website:
Transcription Team | Client Testimonials
and I'm glad to refer you to fellow Warriors and others who would be able to answer your questions about my finished products and services.

Peter Helps · 08-22-2008, 03:34 PM

Janet Sawyer · 08-27-2008, 05:56 PM

Tara,

I'd be interested in your rate card too.

Just looked over the doc and that's pretty neat work. How much would those pages have cost? ( I don't expect you to post publically, please pm me)

I'm always being asked for recommendations for this kind of work. ( I used to do it, don't do it anymore, that's why I am asking)

Do you accept files in mp3, wav or ?file format.
What kind of turnaround do you have?

Thanks in advance,

Janet

TeeNee · 08-31-2008, 04:59 PM

Hi Janet ~

I'll send you a PM with the information you requested.

Thank you for your compliment on my sample transcript. It's just a very small taste of the quality that all of my clients have come to appreciate. I provide a very high-quality, high-value product and I sincerely believe that one would be hard pressed to find better quality anywhere, no matter the cost.

I accept most any type of audio or video format. Here's a list that's posted on my website, on the Services page:

Digital (mp3, wav, dct, ra & rm (RealAudio), sri (VoiceIt), dss (Olympus, Lanier and Grundig), au, aif, mp2, vox, compressed wav (including PCM, uLaw, ALaw, ADPCM, CELP, SBC, Windows Media, DSP TrueSpeech, GSM 6.10), msv and dvf files (Sony Recorders) Philips Digital Recorder format, Sanyo Digital Recorder format and more.
Analog (cassette tapes-regular or mini)
Video (cassette or digital)
CD
DVD

As you'll see on the rate chart I've sent, my turnaround times can be chosen, so if someone needs something faster, they can request it. For larger projects, of course, there would be some negotiation.

Thanks for your post! Hope to hear from you soon...

DennisM · 09-09-2008, 12:27 AM

Hi Tara,

I'm interested in your services too but I have to be blunt here.

It's just ridiculous that everyone has to ask for a rate card. Why not publish your prices right on your website? Nothing is MORE AGGRAVATING for me personally when I shop for products or services online and I have "call" or "e-mail us" or the dreaded "please fill out the form below and someone will contact you".

I don't know how anyone makes any money with this business model.

I'd appreciate a rate card too. Forgive me for the rant here

Thanks in advance,
Dennis

oic800 · 09-09-2008, 08:49 AM

Because Dennis,

There are lots of poeple who would try and steal Taras' customers by undercutting her rates.

That's why

I know this from personal experience, hence why I don't do this kind of work any more. If she posted her rates as x$ per min, then before you know it there would be some one else here posting I'll do it for X$ -1c
Then another one posting I'll do it for x$-10c

And neither of them would produce the work to the standard that Tara is supplying. (Or I used to

)

Hope that makes some kind of sense.
Just my 2c

Janet

Much appreciated.

Sincerely,

James B. Allen

Please send me your rate card, I have a 45 minute mp3 file I need transcribed.

Thank You,

bryce · 09-18-2008, 06:37 PM

Hi, i would also like a rate card, but I can also appreciate where DennisM is coming from.

However DennisM remember that for those who are purely looking at cost, a lot of them would not take it any further if the rates were posted here. This is the same for any other product or service where you see this "Call for rates" tactic. By sending your request, you lodge your interest, and this builds a list

Its all about the list......

Bryce

xlfutur1 · 09-20-2008, 01:54 PM

I would be interested in your services. Can you send me rate card as well?

DennisM · 09-20-2008, 11:16 PM

Bryce,

You're exactly right, as you stated, "it's all about the list". I don't want to be on a list and be forced to "opt out" at a later date just for the privilege of being a potential customer.

I'll let this go now, but for reasons stated previously just show me what you're offering and the cost.

Thanks for reading,
Dennis

Bayo · 09-21-2008, 03:24 PM

Please send rate card via PM please.

TeeNee · 09-23-2008, 10:44 AM

Wow--I didn't realize that not posting my rates publicly was going to be so controversial! I just wanted to reply and clear a few things up...

First, Janet hit the nail on the head, so thank you, Janet! Someone who understands the business...and who understands how some people think.

LIST: While it is true that building a list would be a great idea, I don't have a list for the purposes of marketing to anyone, at least for transcription services. The list I keep is of my current clients only. If someone never contacts me to do any work for them, I don't save their information. I'm easy to find if and when they need me.

PUBLIC RATES: As for not posting my rates publicly, first see what Janet said above...very nicely explained. Also, by posting my rates, it would not be for the purpose of trying to screen potential clients, as someone may be trying to screen potential customers for a higher-priced product.

In fact, by posting my rates, it might not allow me the flexibility of offering discounts to those who truly need them, like non-profit organizations or students. I've worked with several students and non-profits who had a set budget and could only pay so much. I'm happy to do the work for them for less if necessary.

I also offer Warrior-only special rates for fellow Warriors. If these were posted to the forum, anyone would be able to see them and might be sneaky enough to e-mail me saying, "I'm a Warrior" without actually being a member of the forum.

On the other hand, I also have control as to setting a higher rate if necessary, in certain situations. I'm sure others who offer freelance services would concur.

I also like communicating with people before a project is accepted. I like getting to know my clients, and the few e-mails we send back and forth before putting the project on the schedule allows me to get a feel for the person I'm working with. If he/she was referred by a current client, not as much communication is necessary since there's someone to vouch for them, but if I get an e-mail from someone just surfing the Web--a complete stranger--that bit of correspondence is quite valuable.

Lastly, I don't consider not posting my rates to be a "tactic" of any kind. I'm not a public company; just a sole proprietor working as an independent contractor. It's really up to me who I share that information with, and it has saved me some grief in the past.

A LITTLE STORY: Someone had asked me to do a small bit of transcription about a year ago. A while later, I saw that she had posted to the Warrior Forum, offering transcription services quite cheaply. She sent me an e-mail, probably not knowing that I had read the post, asking what my current rates were and asking how to get started and set up her own transcription services. I'm sorry, but no way! I'm happy to help others, but this was way out of line.

NO COMPETITION: Let me be clear about me and my services: There is no competition. I am very proud to say that I offer the highest quality product you'll ever find, and I treat my clients like gold.

I've had people come to me who have used other services in the past and I hear things like, "They flaked out on me. The transcripts were horrible. Can you fix these transcripts? The job was started but never finished. They completely screwed up my project." Those things don't happen with me, so I'm not competing with the ones they left before they found me.

I really appreciate the feedback and activity that everyone is sending my way! As I mentioned before, I'm happy to provide my rates privately to anyone who inquires, and to those of you who have asked up to this point, I am sending PMs out today with that information.

~ Tara

Thanks

Alan Petersen · 10-29-2008, 01:16 PM

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to let you all know that Tara did a fantastic job on my last transcription.

I had already paid another company to transcribe an MP3 audio interview for me and the work was awful. I spent a few days trying to fix their mess AKA "transcript" and found myself basically starting over from scratch it was so bad. I hated wasting time on this. If anyone has ever attempted to transcribe a two person interview I found it extremely tedious, time consuming, and difficult. So I decided to bite the bullet and hire another transcriptionist. That's when I found Tara right here on this forum. And boy am I glad I did!!

She is awesome. Great customer service and the final product was excellent. Compared to the useless tripe the other company did for me, I was so happy, I would have given her a hug if I could.

And her prices are right on the money (she has a special warrior price). It only cost me $13 more compared to what the other company charged me but the quality of her work was like a thousand times better!

I will for sure be using her services again.

Thanks Tara!

TianYan · 10-30-2008, 12:39 PM

Dear Tara,

Please PM me your rate card.

Thanks in advanced.

Be Well,

Alan,

Thank You.

TeeNee - keep up the good work.

I don't have any affiliation with TeeNee, but I can recognise a good person when I see one.

Alan, your unsolicited testmonial is fantastic, not just for TeeNee, but for me also. Thank You so much.

Kindest Regards,

Janet.

TeeNee · 11-05-2008, 10:03 AM

Alan, when I read your post, I was so proud that my work impressed you so much that it inspired you to write what you did...I can't thank you enough for that glowing testimonial!

It can sometimes be hard in the transcription business to find people who appreciate a quality product--some will just settle for using the *crummy* services because they think there's nothing better out there. So thank you for taking a chance on me! I want you to feel the same way about every single project you send to me in the future.

~ Tara

TeeNee · 11-05-2008, 10:11 AM

Janet, you have been a proponent of mine ever since my post here, and I appreciate it so much! Since you are familiar with the transcription business, you understand the importance of gaining good, quality people as clients. As you see, I've found at least one in Alan! I do have other Warrior clients as well who are just wonderful folks and I hope to keep working with them for a long time to come.

Thank you for your support!

She's right--this line of work is not for everyone, but those of us who have been crazy enough to stick with it for over 10 years must like it a little bit.

Deep, thanks for your e-mail! Replied, PM'd and now we're connected!

Thanks to everyone who put their trust in me and tried my services...it's great working with every one of you.

Kim and Rob -- thank you! Your PMs should be waiting in your inbox.

sunconsultancy -- Good thing you found me. Some people have ended up finding the worst first.

But you found the best first.

It's been great connecting with fellow Warriors who were in need of my services. It has been a privilege creating transcripts for people who have such a wealth of valuable knowledge to share.

By the way, I also have a friend who can either translate into or transcribe into Spanish, so if you're looking to expand your customer base by offering transcripts in Spanish, let me know! Another language? I've got connections...

It's just ridiculous that everyone has to ask for a rate card. Why not publish your prices right on your website? Nothing is MORE AGGRAVATING for me personally when I shop for products or services online and I have "call" or "e-mail us" or the dreaded "please fill out the form below and someone will contact you". I don't know how anyone makes any money with this business model. I'd appreciate a rate card too. Forgive me for the rant here Thanks in advance, Dennis

However DennisM remember that for those who are purely looking at cost, a lot of them would not take it any further if the rates were posted here. This is the same for any other product or service where you see this "Call for rates" tactic. By sending your request, you lodge your interest, and this builds a list Its all about the list......

I don't want to be on a list and be forced to "opt out" at a later date just for the privilege of being a potential customer. I'll let this go now, but for reasons stated previously just show me what you're offering and the cost. Thanks for reading, Dennis

Posts: 107 Thanks: 6 Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post Social Networking Contact Info	Posting Rates Publicly-To Do or Not To Do? Wow--I didn't realize that not posting my rates publicly was going to be so controversial! I just wanted to reply and clear a few things up... First, Janet hit the nail on the head, so thank you, Janet! Someone who understands the business...and who understands how some people think. LIST: While it is true that building a list would be a great idea, I don't have a list for the purposes of marketing to anyone, at least for transcription services. The list I keep is of my current clients only. If someone never contacts me to do any work for them, I don't save their information. I'm easy to find if and when they need me. PUBLIC RATES: As for not posting my rates publicly, first see what Janet said above...very nicely explained. Also, by posting my rates, it would not be for the purpose of trying to screen potential clients, as someone may be trying to screen potential customers for a higher-priced product. In fact, by posting my rates, it might not allow me the flexibility of offering discounts to those who truly need them, like non-profit organizations or students. I've worked with several students and non-profits who had a set budget and could only pay so much. I'm happy to do the work for them for less if necessary. I also offer Warrior-only special rates for fellow Warriors. If these were posted to the forum, anyone would be able to see them and might be sneaky enough to e-mail me saying, "I'm a Warrior" without actually being a member of the forum. On the other hand, I also have control as to setting a higher rate if necessary, in certain situations. I'm sure others who offer freelance services would concur. I also like communicating with people before a project is accepted. I like getting to know my clients, and the few e-mails we send back and forth before putting the project on the schedule allows me to get a feel for the person I'm working with. If he/she was referred by a current client, not as much communication is necessary since there's someone to vouch for them, but if I get an e-mail from someone just surfing the Web--a complete stranger--that bit of correspondence is quite valuable. Lastly, I don't consider not posting my rates to be a "tactic" of any kind. I'm not a public company; just a sole proprietor working as an independent contractor. It's really up to me who I share that information with, and it has saved me some grief in the past. A LITTLE STORY: Someone had asked me to do a small bit of transcription about a year ago. A while later, I saw that she had posted to the Warrior Forum, offering transcription services quite cheaply. She sent me an e-mail, probably not knowing that I had read the post, asking what my current rates were and asking how to get started and set up her own transcription services. I'm sorry, but no way! I'm happy to help others, but this was way out of line. NO COMPETITION: Let me be clear about me and my services: There is no competition. I am very proud to say that I offer the highest quality product you'll ever find, and I treat my clients like gold. I've had people come to me who have used other services in the past and I hear things like, "They flaked out on me. The transcripts were horrible. Can you fix these transcripts? The job was started but never finished. They completely screwed up my project." Those things don't happen with me, so I'm not competing with the ones they left before they found me. I really appreciate the feedback and activity that everyone is sending my way! As I mentioned before, I'm happy to provide my rates privately to anyone who inquires, and to those of you who have asked up to this point, I am sending PMs out today with that information. ~ Tara

Posts: 2,187 Blog Entries: 9 Thanks: 271 Thanked 159 Times in 87 Posts Social Networking	Re: Transcriptionist Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that Tara did a fantastic job on my last transcription. I had already paid another company to transcribe an MP3 audio interview for me and the work was awful. I spent a few days trying to fix their mess AKA "transcript" and found myself basically starting over from scratch it was so bad. I hated wasting time on this. If anyone has ever attempted to transcribe a two person interview I found it extremely tedious, time consuming, and difficult. So I decided to bite the bullet and hire another transcriptionist. That's when I found Tara right here on this forum. And boy am I glad I did!! She is awesome. Great customer service and the final product was excellent. Compared to the useless tripe the other company did for me, I was so happy, I would have given her a hug if I could. And her prices are right on the money (she has a special warrior price). It only cost me $13 more compared to what the other company charged me but the quality of her work was like a thousand times better! I will for sure be using her services again. Thanks Tara!

It can sometimes be hard in the transcription business to find people who appreciate a quality product--some will just settle for using the crummy services because they think there's nothing better out there. So thank you for taking a chance on me! I want you to feel the same way about every single project you send to me in the future. ~ Tara
