Internet Research offered as a Service

An interesting service to offer to clients is Internet Research.

You will search for information on the Internet for clients. The types of clients who would use this information can be people who offer course/training material and require course information. Authors who need research for books they write. Students need research on subjects that they do their Masters, MBA, and PhD degrees for. There are many other people who also require research.

A client will give you a subject that they need the research on and they will ask you to find specific data on that subject. My starting point when I do research is to start by doing a Google search on the topic/subject. Keep track of what you are doing; record the time you start to do your research and the time you finish. I normally take a few hours or more. Open a document and record everywhere you look, take a copy of the website URL address and place it in your document and if you find the information you need, you copy it into your document. If you find pdf information then you can usually send the pdf to your email address and then copy it into your document or forward it to your clients for their information. With doing Internet Research you have to sort of think like your client, get as much information as possible from them about what it is they really want, ask questions, show that you are interested in finding the information they require. I very rarely will spend under an hour doing research so therefore I charge my hourly rate when doing this; it can be charged in 15 to 20 minutes increments. Programs to record your information can be MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. It is very time consuming doing research, I normally will do a few hours, and then if I come up with nothing which does happen I take a break and then start again later. It is pointless going on if you are not finding the information you need, take a break and start again.

Student Research

When doing research for Students for degrees etc:

• Go into Google, press more, then press even more, then go into Scholar. This is where you will search for articles on the subjects that your student is writing their thesis/assignment/dissertation etc.

• Copy information you find into your word document also coping your website URL address.

• With student research and finding articles you must make sure you copy the article references as this will be used within their thesis/assignments etc. Some articles can be copied, some are available in pdf format, and you can send these to yourself and your student in email format. There is often always a link with pdf articles to send via email.

• Here is an example of the referencing that you must make sure you copy with any articles you take with your research.

Examples:

This reference will be placed within their document text. Treux, D. (1996)

This reference will be placed in the reference listing: Treux, D. (1996). Qualitative research method panel: The merits of three qualitative research methods, discourse analysis. Georgia: Georgia State University.

This reference will be placed within their document text. Van der Reit, M. & Boetiger, M (2009)

This reference will be placed in the reference listing: Van der Reit, M. & Boettiger, M. (2009). Shifting research dynamics: Addressing power and maximising participation through participatory research techniques in participatory research. South African Journal of Psychology, 39(1):1-18.

Hope this is helpful.

Q and A

Are you happy in your business to do subcontracting for a low rate?
Are you looking for clients and only getting the types of clients that want the lowest rates?
What type of clients are you drawing from your website, marketing and advertising?
Are you attracting the right type of clients?
Are your rates to low?
Are you getting any clients contacting you?
Do clients contact you from seeing your website?
After you submit your quote does the client contact you further? How many jobs do you pick up from quotes?

Subcontracting to other VAs your rates will always be low, you will get a percentage of the full price which is usually around 30%, is it worth your while to do this type of work and earn a low percentage of the full rate when you can do advertising, networking, marketing and get your own clients and charge them the full rate, can you make profits in your business doing this.
When you quote what is your gut feel when putting in that quote, do you think you will get that job, do you put in a competitive quote or do you quote the lowest rate for the job in hopes that the client will look for the lowerst rate and go for it. Is this the right way to do things?
Is your marketing content right for the types of clients that you wish to draw into your company, are clients seeing that you could be an asset to their company/s/businesses.
Do you know the types of clients that you would like to work for doing the type of work you enjoy doing.
If your rates are low, why are your rates low, if you are a new VA starting out you do not have to charge low rates, you are doing this job because you have the skill and experience to do the job, you are new to running your own business but your skills and experience go back through your career. So why offer low rates.
Is your advertising being seen by potential clients, ask clients where they found your details. Write good content that will pull the client towards you and not to the other VAs advertising around you. Try to make your content stand out from the crowd.
Your website is your advertising on the internet, it must look good it must draw the client to contact you further. Refresh your content regularly, change your look often, keep your site current and dont let it just sit there. How your website looks is very important, does it portray what you are doing, does it look inviting, do you feel if you were a client would you make further contact or will you just go and look at the next website.
Be careful when submitting quotes, dont go for the lowest rate, contact the client first, ask questions, show interest in what they want you to do, tell them how good you are, put in a competitive quote. Sell your skills and experience to the client, ask them why they are looking for quotes, ask why they want the lowest quote, ask them why they can't give you a go and use your services as you think you are better than the competition out there.

To be continued...

Partnerships


Lately I have been getting a lot of requests about partnering from other VAs and Transcription companies. These are some of the questions I would think to ask:

1. Why does the VA/Transcription Company want to partner with me?
2. What are the benefits for me and my company if I go into partnership with them?
3. Does the VA or Transcription Company have current and past clients?
4. Is the VA or Transcription Company working to full capacity or not?
5. How long have they been in business, what are their business ethics and values?
6. Is the company earning a profit? (If I am interested then I will want to look at your companies books to see your financial situation.)

Ask for company information re website, Facebook, Twitter, Linked in details etc. Check the company out, ask for a list of their current clients, speak to the client’s, and get a feel of the company. If the company has nothing to hide they will let you have access as they know partnering with you is very important and could be a benefit to them, you need to know about the company and its details. To partner with another company it has to be mutual beneficial for both companies. Partnering with another person or company is not easy; make sure that both companies are adequately covered with contracts and agreements. Know what each companies is doing at all times, have close communication. Partnerships are not easy, everyone needs to be on the same page with goals, missions and values and if this starts out shaking then it might not work. Both companies need to have full confidence in each other, there has to be trust and mutual respect. Make sure there are written procedures for you both to work from.
And lastly, make sure that a partnership is what you want and not just what the other company wants.

What is involved with offering Typing as a service?

Can anyone type, yes but can everyone offer typing as a service? Typing can be more than just copy typing. Typing can involve creating spreadsheets, equations, figures, graphs, charts etc or even creating graphics. So you need to ask your prospective client what is involved with the typing before quoting.

• Is the typing just plain copy typing, what you see is what you type, is there any tables, graphs, charts as they must then be created, you might have to create a graph or chart in excel and copy it across to word, that is time taking and is not straight copy typing, as you must create the graph etc. Sometimes you might have to scan an image from an book, so that means you need to scan it on a scanner and then resize to insert it into your document, so that is not straight copy typing. You might need to find an image on the Internet, so that will involve research, finding the image. You might have to create a graphic, the client might have drawn an image, maybe a flow diagram, you will need to recreate this in the document this can also involve using graphic software then copy and insert within your document, and also this is very time consuming.

• A client might send you to copy a PDF document for typing. Not all PDF conversion software works nicely when you convert a PDF document into word. You might find you still have to reformat the document this is time taking and often much quicker to just type the document from scratch. Note here the client will know the document is not typed from scratch, they will know you have used conversion software to convert the document and often this is not the quickest route to take.

• You might need to firstly print out what the client has sent you so that you can type from it, it takes time to print out a document, and it costs to print from a printer.

• At the end of your document you need to proofread and perform a spell check, this should be part of your quote or terms and condition; this task must always be done. Make sure you list this so that clients can see that you perform this task.

• Sometimes clients might want their document saved to a memory stick (flash drive) you need to charge for this as it is time taking and you maybe you need to a buy the memory stick.

• If you offer typing as a service make sure you state that you can create graphs, tables, charts, brochures, graphics, spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations. Do not assume all typing is simple copy typing, often it is more involved.

• You may need to insert equations, this takes extra time to do this, so make sure you feature this time into the length of time it will takes you to complete the typing.

• You can no longer send large files through email and often you have to make use of Google docs, Dropbox, Send this File etc so make sure that your Internet bundle (capped or uncapped) can cope with offering typing. Files will need to be downloaded and uploaded. A file with graphics, graphs etc will take time to load and is very time consuming loading to Send this File or Dropbox etc, especially if it has more than 20 pages. A large manual with graphics, graphs and flows, a large spreadsheet, a PowerPoint presentation can take a few hours to upload, you have to remember this when it comes to your deadline and getting the work back to the client in time.

• If you contract typing out to a subcontractor make sure you check the work thoroughly and ask the subcontractor to make sure they proof their own work then you double proof the work when you get it back. Often a subcontractor will just do the work and send it back to you and tell you it is proofed, don’t make the mistake of sending it to the client without you doing a proofread and spell check. You are the one the work is sent to from your client and not the subcontractor so it is up to you to make sure you send back a quality document.

• When offering typing services sometimes you will get in tasks that you don’t like doing, maybe lots of figure typing, typing of tables, this can be boring for some, listen to music as you type, this will help the time go a bit quicker.

• When pricing typing the norm is to charge on a per page basis but it can also be done on an hourly rate, whichever works out best for you, is what you offer.

• Authors and students may ask you for a charge per word, roughly you normally get ±750/1000 words to an A4 page at Ariel at a size 12 font.

• If you have a table within the document, check out the other tables within the document, maybe you can just copy and paste your first one and just change the data, this can save you time.

• Know how many pages you can do in an hour, day, or week so that you can let the client know if you can reach their deadline, remember if you have graphics, graphs, charts etc within a document it might take you longer to create these so therefore affecting the time it takes to complete your document.

• Ask for client preferences: fonts, size of text, colour in graphs, flow diagrams, spacing, justification, ask if the client can provide you with the company logo’s/graphics, templates if required. etc.

• Do not take on typing work if you do not know how to do it, you can subcontract it out, if that is the case make sure your subcontract has the experience to do the job.

You have been asked by a potential client to type up a manual, they ask you for a quote, what do you do?


It’s easy to quote on something, to just toss out a price, but is that price right. What is involved with the actual task, not all copy typing is simply copy typing like the clients say.

You will often find there can be graphics, internet research that is required, tables, graphs, scanning that is required. You might have to go and find graphics through Google images, and that is time taking, finding the right graphic can be costly using your adsl or 3G.

Often copy typing is not simple copy typing and we need to think of this when quoting for just so much per page for copy typing. There is no reason why a client can’t send you an example if they want the work done properly, if the clients simply refuse and ask for a quote with very little information, is that the client you want you want to work with, as often that work will end up taking a lot of time.

With each quote you need to get as much detail as possible. Find out what the content of the typing actually is. A flow diagram within a document could take you a few hours to do just that one page so is typing at a per page rate really the right way to go on a document that has graphics, flows, tables within. Graphs are time taking, you may have to go into excel and do the graph in there and then import it to your document. Its things like this that takes time. Also don’t forget that after the typing is finished you also must proofread and check that your document is laid out nicely, so make sure you build this time into your quote price

What about when the document is finished and you send it back to the client and the client sends it back with major changes, how do you handle this, do you do it for free or do you put a price to changes. Here I would charge an hourly rate, to cover client edits, some documents can come back and forward a few times and that is taking up your time to do the changes so you can’t really just charge a per page rate for comebacks/editing.

Another thing I never, never send a document back to the client as a PDF file unless that client specifies they want a pdf file. Few clients will ask for this, most clients want a word, PowerPoint or excel file back as sometimes they want to do the changes themselves once the main body of the document is done. Don’t think that sending the document back as a pdf file means that the client will send it back to you for every change they need, they can simple convert it back to a workable file through software available. So this is no guarantee that the work will come back to you.

Always check with the client and ask first will there be updates, changes to the document and how would they like to handle this, have this question on your form of requirements for the client so that it is addressed by the client.

Ask for as much detail as possible that is your right before putting in a quote to any client. Quoting blindly will often backfire on you.

Your comments on the above article are welcome.
