If you watch movies or videos, you’ve probably noticed the subtitles at the bottom of the screen. The people who type those texts are called transcribers.
Transcribers are hired by universities, law firms, medical centers, marketing agencies and many other types of companies – to transcribe audio into text.
Companies across the world rely on transcribers daily to listen to their video and audio files and type them out into text documents.
A transcriber listens to recordings or attends live events and types the contents into a document, which is then returned to the client so that they will have a written record of what was said.
Transcribers listen carefully to video or audio recordings.
They type what they hear in the audio or video recording and check for errors.

Hello friend!
My name is Katie Weston, the course creator and co-founder of TypeWhizz.
A little bit about myself?
I used to work at a call center and I absolutely hated my job, which ultimately caused me to suffer from depression and anxiety.
I regularly searched for online jobs so that I could spend more time with my children, but many roles required a degree or some sort of managerial experience.
That was until I discovered the world of transcription and my entire life changed forever.

Becoming an online transcriber requires discipline, commitment and consistency.
While the demand for online transcribers is growing daily, a large percentage of transcribers earn less than $500 per month – when they could be earning $2000+.
Many people delve into the world of transcription with the hopes of earning a large income with no training or certification.
The likelihood of this happening is low, unless they possess the correct training, tips, shortcuts and job contacts.
While transcription may seem easy, the process is often time consuming and tedious. This is because many transcribers do not leverage the right tools and shortcuts which can help you complete tasks faster and earn more per project/task.
Often, people will spend hours trying to transcribe a simple 20 minute video. Especially if the video has poor quality audio or multiple speakers.
Take this scenario for example;
If you spent 7 hours trying to transcribe a 20 minute video, not only will you get very frustrated but, according to the average earnings per audio minute, you’d earn less than $5 per hour – very disappointing right?
This often leads new transcribers to quit the profession entirely as their income is just not worth the amount of time put in.
