A Narrative of the Life of Emperor Nero - What a character!

General Rules
It takes 1-2 hours to transcribe 15 minutes of recorded audio.
Much depends on the quality of the media (tape, DVD, DVR, etc.), the number of voices, technical content, accents, and this is very important -- if the tape is to be transcribed verbatim or paraphrased.
Also important is if the speaker or speakers' actions are to be transcribed.
If the media to be submitted are clear, straight-forward, intelligent speaking, then the tape will take much less time than one that is of a highly technical focus group.
For general transcription at an hourly rate, the charge could range from $15 to $75 per hour. The average is about $30 an hour. (Expect highly technical rates to be slightly higher.)
For general transcription by the page, the rate is from $2.75 to $14.00 per page.
The goal is to produce professional, accurate work with superior spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and formatting.
