Four Benefits A Small Company Can Realize From A Transcription Service Company

By:


A college graduate with an entrepreneurial spirit wanted to start her own business. She was very skilled in marketing and sales. The skills that made her good at sales were opposite the very skills needed to run the administrative details and word processing services required by her business. She wanted to hire an administrative assistant, but the business hadn't grown to the point where she had enough work to keep one busy.

Whether your business is a one-person start up like this college graduate or a small, specialized company, you may not be ready to hire a full-time administrative help. In this situation, you may find great benefit from hiring a company to help with general transcription and other administrative services.

Following is a list four valuable services that a general transcription company can provide:

Mailing List Maintenance

All companies that are just starting must have customers of one sort or another. Keeping in touch with those customers is crucial. A San Francisco transcription company can manage the contact database. They can keep it up-dated with current mailing addresses, email addresses, business phone numbers, cell phone numbers, fax numbers, etc.

This type of data base can be managed for both current customers and prospective customers. For example, if you attend a networking meeting and collect several business cards, a general transcription company could take those business cards and type the information on each of them into a database for your use in making contacts.

Mail Merges

With a current database, it is easy for a general transcription company to perform mail merges. They can merge into a main document, such as a letter, so each document has a personalized address and salutation. For generic mailings, they can run a query and create mailing labels for a specific segment of your database.

Word Processing

Word processing services are among the greatest benefits you can have from a transcription company. They can type documents, letters, worksheets, advertisements, etc.

Transcription Services

A unique, but valuable word processing service is that of document transcription. You can record letters, memos, information brochures, etc. into a digital recorder, mini cassette, or regular cassette. You can make these recordings while you are sitting stuck in traffic, waiting for a client to arrive, or while flying to a business appointment. After you have made the recording, you give it to the San Francisco transcription company who will type the dictated material and make it ready for signature and mailing.
