Random Thoughts and Ideas

From a rambling mind wanting to share

When you consider a transcription company to handle you audio files, consider CLK Transcription. So many others have.

CLK Transcription is a US based and operated transcription company. We do not use speech recognition. We feel nothing beats the human ear when listening to your audio. We do not offshore your work, but we do service the world and enjoy the ESL speakers as well. CLK Transcription has transcribed audio on topics from: […]

Proud to be an American Business! Happy Independence Day!

Growing up, the fact that I was an Army brat was not as significant as it has become in my adult years.  My childhood wasn’t regimented as some see in the movies, but respecting the fact that my dad was a military man came easier than listening to the rules of the household.   I […]

In my opinion, here is what makes a good businessperson…

In the past several weeks I have been met with some professionals (and I use that term because they use it only) that I was giving my business to.  I was their client, their customer, their money in the drawer during this sucky economy.   The first was a professional who did construction, maintenance – […]

This is the time for seminars and conferences. We can transcribe those!

Are you sponsoring, promoting, or attending a seminar or conference this Summer? Why not have it recorded and the audio transcribed so all that great information covered, discussed and enjoyed can be shared even after the event ends? CLK Transcription has been busy the last few weeks transcribing conferences and seminars ranging in topics from […]

With all that you have to get done, it’s okay to ask for help.

As a journalist/writer, when you have a project that has been assigned, there are so many steps to get through to be able to develop the perfect piece, the perfect end-product, that it’s a wonder you have enough time in the day to even think about them all. There are phone calls to make.  Interviews […]

Need a US medical transcription company? CLK Transcription does that too!

Although I have a deep and profound love for the journalist, ghost writer, and others who need non-medical transcription, my roots are in the medical field beginning many years ago with insurance verification, medical records, home health care administrator, and then on to medical transcription with another company, I do enjoy the medical client as […]

Need a weekend warrior for your audio transcription? Dissertations, interviews, IEPs, meetings, and more. We can do that!

Many of us see the weekend as a relaxation period, or at least we would like to.  Most times however, after all our professional responsibilities are complete, we need to use the weekend as our catch up time for household chores and personal responsibilities and needs. We use this time to do our household chores […]

Dear interviewer, you are a great interviewer but…a Transcriptionist’s point of view.

One of CLK Transcriptions independent contractors asked why we are never interviewed for a story.  Then she realized we are too busy transcribing your audio to stop.  She did however have some thoughts and suggestions on how to make transcribing your audio of other interviews a bit more transcription friendly – whether we transcribe your […]

Think you are dealing with an American Transcription Company – Think again

One of my pet peeves is the sending of our valuable information, not to mention work – over seas.  I have spoken about it, blogged about it and posted about it. I don’t want any of my information sent outside of the US, but especially my medical information – it has everything from my social […]

Do you know your FaceBook connections? Really?

Since many of us use Facebook as a true social media networking device, for professional and personal business, I tend to allow friend requests when I notice that many of my other connections have the same “friend”.   I was not always this way.  I use to research the connections, see if there was some […]
