Nobody can deny the fact that transcription services are need of the hour. Every industry use transcription due to some or the other kind of requirement. Recently, transcription use has been growing rapidly in media houses also. Right from the big media houses and magazine publishers to small TV stations and newspapers, everyone in the media line is outsourcing their transcription services.

There are several reasons for outsourcing of transcription services by media houses. Let us discuss a few of them:

  • Outsourcing helps them in cutting costs as they pay their personnel high salaries and thus, they want them to focus on preparing shows and investigating a story rather than spending hours transcribing audios and videos. Apart from that, media professionals are most of the time involved in many other types of work which are urgent as well as important than transcription.
  • Every news and story have a very competitive nature and thus they demand quick and accurate delivery to the public. This is where professional transcription services help the most.
  • If an in-house staff, which is not so experienced, performs the transcription work, there are many chances of errors. However, an expert transcriptionist can deliver you documents having almost 100% accuracy. This increases the credibility of the media company.
  • A professional transcriptionist not only transcribes the audio/video but also add time codes and captions to the videos. Again, an in-house media professional is not meant for this purpose. Only an expert can do it quickly and accurately.

Security of data is utmost important for a media company, so it is imperative that you hire a professional transcription company only.
