How To Get Started as an Online Transcriber – Part 2

Continued from Part 1

What is Online Transcription?

Now maybe you’re asking yourself what is Transcription? Well, let me give you a brief introduction.

Transcription is a service of converting speech into a written text document. Transcription services are often provided for general business, legal, or medical purposes. The most common type of transcription is from a spoken language source into the text such as a software file suitable for printing as a document such as a report.

Typical examples are the proceedings of a court hearing such as a criminal trial or a physician’s recorded voice notes (Medical Transcription). For transcription services, various individuals and companies offer different rates and various pricing. That can be per audio minute, per audio hour service, which differs from company to company.

There are different types of transcription, for example, medical transcription, general transcription and legal transcription.

You might come across different accents in transcription, but the most common ones are British and American accents.

Transcription work can be an excellent choice for retired people, work at home moms or those who have time to earn online by utilizing their free time.

Possibly you’re asking yourself…

Do I need to have any formal training?

Do I need plenty of cash to invest?

Do I have the proper atmosphere to work?

The answer to all or any of these queries may be a big, NO!

Yet, that is not true, all you really want is… 

  • Computer with Internet connections.
  • Good command of English grammar, both written and verbal.
  • Typing speed of at least 35 WPM.
  • A keen earn.
  • Being able to pay attention to details.
  • Computer savvy.

Personally, I’m a freelance transcriber, trainer and a mentor. I began precisely 8 years ago. I came across the various opportunities the Internet provides for people like you. Not only that, but I have enjoyed working online as a work from home mum, and I’m here to share with you the treasured information that I’ve gathered over the years.

Therefore, I’m excited that I will furnish you with all of my information, therefore you don’t need to go through the real hustle I went through on my very own. I’m a self-tutored transcriber and would like to share all of my freelance online transcription experience with you so that you’ll be able to also live the life you’ve always dreamed of.

I know what you’re saying, “This sounds too sweet to be true.”

For some people, this might be too good to be true.

Despite the fact that the online transcription business is genuine and available, there are a few justifications for why such a lot of people aren’t making cash with it. Along these lines, however you will be eager to begin, I need to be sure you don’t commit the same mistakes that most transcribers make.

Online Scams

The sad truth is that the Internet is loaded with a lot of scams. Certainly, it’s been incredible for individuals that don’t misuse it. It’s been a huge benefit for those that can scrutinize through a lot of sites that are “trash” and recognize the ones that are genuine. Except for the vast majority, it’s problematic to comprehend which sites are real and which ones aren’t.

Each site will give important information, there are even numerous others that are exploitative and in a few cases, complete scams.

This harsh reality has left a few hopeful independent contractors scratching their heads, considering what to attempt to do straightaway, and whether bringing in money as an independent transcriber is even possible. Due to this, they relinquish their fantasies, and return to the past method of life that they were direly making an attempt to escape.

For a moment, you will start to suffer from “information overload” and confusion. A lot is coming back to you from all sides, and everyone is saying that they’re the “transcription master.” Whom will you believe?

Aspiring online transcribers can pay hours, days and even weeks trying to decipher what they are learning. They then discover they’re not learning anything, and they return to the starting point.

The disappointment becomes overpowering, and transcribers with unfathomable potential end up sitting idle!

It could be frustrating. Many transcribers with whom I have spoken with don’t know where to begin, and thus, they find themselves directionless.

Anyway, where do you start?

If you already have all the above-mentioned requirements, and you also have a burning desire to work online as a freelance transcriber, I’m here to assist you.

I will hold your hand until you make it online, so you’re in safe hands with me.

Would you be able to envision a sprinter strolling on to a track field ready to start a race, and there isn’t any starting line? The best sprinters inside the world cannot show how energetically they are, and can’t contend on the off chance that they aren’t told where to start.

It’s a comparative with Online Transcription!

In the event that you don’t know any place to begin, you’ll feel lost; those that arrive at this point never start and assume that making money online as an independent transcriber is impractical.

Indeed, even experienced transcribers, with numerous years of experience, had a few issues exploring the Internet waters as they attempted to expand their career into online transcription.

Perseverance is the name of this business. Assuming you allow me to train and mentor you, you’ll win, and you’ll see there are genuine results for those online transcription barriers.
