It’s the service that enhances your business in so many ways.
Here at FSTL we know only too well how time consuming transcription can be. And when it’s not your particular area of expertise, this becomes even more apparent. With an hour long recording taking as much as 4-6 hours to transcribe, it’s easy to see how transcribing is a process that can very quickly drain your business resources.
Whether it’s your latest business conference or management meeting that needs transcribing; you’re a medical practice or hospital that has voice to text needs or audio recordings from your latest market research needs to be transcribed to communicate to your global clients, outsourcing the work can not only be more cost effective but save time and effort too.
Here are our top 5 reasons why outsourcing makes business sense:
- Reduce the costs to your business. Yes, there is a cost for the professional transcription service, but when you take into account the cost to your business of using one of your own members of staff, any equipment and technology costs associated with completing the work and then the need for you to edit and amend their work, the actual expense of undertaking the transcription in-house quickly mounts up. By outsourcing your needs to a transcription service such as that of FSTL you pay for each project as required, which ultimately boosts the efficiency of your own team. They don’t need to multi-task with a skill in which they aren’t fully trained which can absorb much more of their time – all of which increases the cost to your business. There’s also no need to spend your resources on training or technology as this is all part of the transcription package. Your business can reduce capital investments, expenses and overheads, resulting in significant savings and increased profitability.
- Positive effects on manpower. Not only are you freeing up your own internal staff to work on other areas, which means they’re focusing potentially on the aspects of your business that cannot be outsourced, but you’re also not taking up their time with a skill in which they may not be proficient. It means you’re paying your transcription agency for a service that they can provide faster and more accurately than someone who is untrained in transcription. It also removes the need for you to spend your time overseeing and editing the transcription, which frees up more of your time to focus on and develop the core areas of your business.
- Boost the turnaround time. As professional transcribers our team are experienced in turning around documents quickly and efficiently, preventing inaccuracies and any delays in delivery. With their only focus being to transcribe your document there’s no risk of interruption or distraction from other tasks, their time is taken up entirely by the completion of your project. This means you’ll get the end result within a much smaller time frame.
- Tap into increased flexibility. When we say we work across most industry sectors covering the needs of multiple clients across the globe, we really do mean it.
