Hello, RFarrelly (this is you, isn't it?).
My name is José; I'm a 51 year old Brazilian from Niterói (Rio de Janeiro). My aim is to add value to translation and transcription projects through my very serious and meticulous way of thinking and doing things.
I found your transcription job post (Project ID: 7724929) and I'm very interested in this project. As you've requested a time-based price, the short answer is: $3.25 per audio minute. But there's always a long answer:
As you certainly know, transcription price may vary significantly due to some conditions, such as:
- structure of meeting and density of speech,
- heavy accents,
- client requirements (transcription style, time stamps etc.)
However, after reading your project description, I would infer that you have:
- two voices in a well structured meeting and average density of speech,
- good sound quality,
And you want an "abridged" style transcript (edited/"cleaned up" text), no (or a few) time stamps.
If my inferences are true, I can offer you a much more favorable pricing: every 100 words (target text) for $2.20. Usually, this corresponds to $2.80 per audio minute, and you will never be charged more than $3.25.
Let me transcribe a test segment for you (3 minutes or 300 words, for instance)! I need your help to build up a reputation in this website. I want to provide you an excellent work in hopes that you can spend a little of your precious time to leave a positive review for me.
Thank you very much!
José Ricardo
