Transcription Services picking up

All that marketing I did during the slow months of January and February is really paying off now. Not only have my regular clients picked the pace back up, but I have several new clients to boot. I love it! It's a little tricky keeping up with it all, but it's all getting done. I have some wonderful new people on board who are really helping keep things running smoothly. I don't know what I'd do without them.

Teleseminar Transcription Services

Teleseminar transcription is fast becoming very popular. Why have your teleseminar transcribed? Well, you can do a number of things with a transcript from a teleseminar.
You can easily use portions of the transcript for a free report you may want to give away to potential clients. Or you may want to turn the transcript into an e-book to sell. This could pay for the cost of the transcription services possibly in a single sale of the e-book, depending on the price of the e-book and the length of the teleseminar.
Another reason to get your teleseminar transcribed is to possibly use portions on your website, which would allow the search engines to grab up any keywords in the text that they wouldn't find in the audio. This will only help you in getting your website ranked higher for your specific keywords.

Something else to keep in mind is that many people would much rather read a transcript than listen to an audio clip on your website. It is time consuming to sit in front of your computer while listening to a 30 to 60 minute audio, when you could curl up on your couch with a copy of a transcript of the same thing and read it at your leisure. I know I have bypassed listening to an audio just because I wouldn’t have time to finish listening to it. If they had offered me a transcript of the material I could have read it in chunks as I had the time.

Also remember, some people are just not audio learners and do much better if they are able to read it themselves and digest the information at their own pace. It’s always best to offer both the option of an audio clip and a transcript, if at all possible.

How to Start a Secretarial Service From Home By Someone Who Has

Do you want to start your own work-at-home transcription and secretarial service just like thousands of people are already doing? Starting your own secretarial and transcription service may be just the thing to allow you to finally fulfill your dreams of doing just that!

I have been working from home since 1990 when my oldest daughter was a year old. Oh, how I would have loved a mentor when I first started out! Someone who had been there, done that. Someone who would share all that they had learned, and I mean everything! I remember I had one book (guide) to help me back in 1990 on how to start a secretarial service and it was so vague. That book did not give me the answer to my most important question – what type of businesses to target and how to get clients! I hope to give you all the details so that you can be successful very quickly.

I want to share my experiences with others so that they may have the opportunity to be blessed as I have been. So I wrote this book to reach out to those who need a mentor to help them on their way.

There is a lot of valuable information in this book, with tons of resources to assist you on building your secretarial and transcription business. But I want to offer it to you at a reasonable price too, because I want it to be affordable to those who really need this information. I know when I started my service I was a stay-at-home mom without a lot of money. I know many people are in the same boat. That is why I set the price at only $7.99. It's affordable! You can get it an an instant download at the following link.

Finally ... a new website

I have had the same website for my transcription business since the Internet was fairly new and it showed. It really looks dated when I look at it now. Here is the old website. And here is the new website. We even changed the name since we incorporated my husband's drafting business and my transcription business last year. I am probably just going to leave the old site up, at least for now, because a lot of people do know me by the old name.
