What Types of Conference Transcription Are Available?

The kind of services you require will depend on the setting. A single speaker seminar will see a host introduce the speaker, before the speaker lectures and confers with the audience, whereas a multi-speaker seminar will involve a panel of speakers discussing issues, before hosting a question and answer session with the audience.

Once you have paid attention to the setting you can hire professionals to transcribe the following manuscripts:

  • Seminar transcription
  • Market research and survey transcription
  • Board meetings
  • Presentations
  • Lecture transcription
  • Strategic planning sessions
  • Drug study trials

Advantages of Conference Transcription

It's not just the opportunities to save time and money with transcription services that appeal to business owners but also, the keyword-related benefits. Once conference audio has been transcribed into a keyword-rich document it will be indexed on the search engines better, thus allowing the business owner to gain more exposure on the World Wide Web. This is a necessity in today's day and age, because billions of people use the Internet worldwide.

Additional benefits of conference transcription include:

  • Transcribed documents are searchable
  • Transcription makes distributing content easier
  • More traffic can be achieved with text than audio/video
  • Knowledge from speakers can be captured with word-for-word transcription.
