Outsourcing your Back Office

Email is the most useful of online apps and a necessity for any modern-day office.  Google’s email app, Gmail, is already quite popular for personal email addresses, but it is also more than sufficient for business email.  Gmail’s downtime is almost never, meaning it is always up and running.  It can be linked to personal electronic devices such as Blackberry.  And it is well-integrated with the other Google Apps that we have looked at over the past few weeks.  All in all, if you are looking at making a switch in email providers, Gmail is good bet.

If you are looking to modernize and upgrade your office, then an even better bet would be to outsource your Back Office to eDecree.  Your time is valuable, and tasks such as transcription and data entry offer little room for your value-added.  So outsource them to eDecree!  We are experts at transcription and data entry.  eDecree prides itself on quality and customer satisfaction, all for a low low price.

If Google Groups is too low-tech for what you want to do, Google Sites is likely for you.  Google Sites allows you to create your own webpage without typing code or HTML.  With Google Sites you can build webpages for team projects and intranets.   Compared to Google Groups, Google Sites are a more comprehensive way of organizing and centralizing information.  It is particularly effective if you are managing a large amount of information stored in various formats.  Like all other Google Apps, accessibility is limited to selected users, but the webpage can be accessed (by an accepted user) from practically any internet connection.

Organizing the online office often requires various folders from which you can share office files with co-workers.  While this can be done by your IT person, it can be a costly, cumbersome process.  Google Groups provides this service for free.  On Google Groups you can share all sorts of files with specified co-workers.  Access and group membership can be managed, and the Group can also be used as a mailing list.  Since Google technically hosts the Group, your IT is not burdened with the extra processing power and storage space required for such an undertaking.  It is a win-win situation for your business.

Last week, we looked at how Google Docs can help improve office administration.  This week, we look at Google Calendar, an online day-planner.  Google Calendar allows one or more users to input pertinent dates and times on to the schedule.  Marking something on the calendar is to create an “event” or “task”.  The title of the event/task will show up on your calendar and clicking on the title will open up a new window with more details.  For recurring events/tasks, Google Calendar has the option to make an event/task weekly, daily, every other day, and so on.  Google Calendar allows everyone in your office to literally be on the same page when it comes to scheduling.

No longer is the “online office” just about email.  New types of online collaboration and communication can simplify and enhance common office activities.  Google Documents is one such innovation.  It allows multiple users to view and edit a single document online.  All that is needed is a Google account (free) and permission to view or edit the document.  Google Documents accommodates word processing files, spreadsheets, and Powerpoint presentations.

While Google Docs can increase efficiency in your office place, the best way to cut costs is to outsource your Back Office.  Transcription and data entry are common tasks that you need not waste time on if they are not your core competency.  eDecree can help you get back to what you do best.  We’ll take care of your transcription and data entry, with a guaranteed quality standard and great low pricing.  Head to www.edecree.com to find out more!

A final feature to consider is transcription technology.  Many high-end digital audio recorders will come with transcription technology that tries to convert your audio to written word automatically.  Some see this feature as an important part of their audio recorder, but transcription technology in digital audio recorders is notoriously unreliable and temperamental.  If you consider transcription an important part of your audio recorder, then it should probably be done manually, not left to the inaccuracies of automation.

At eDecree, all transcription is performed manually by qualified experts.  We know everything there is to know about transcription, and we can tell you with confidence that the only way to do transcription right is to do it manually.  So if you take your transcription seriously, send it to eDecree and you can get back to focusing on the core competencies of your business.  Go to our website (www.edecree.com) to see how eDecree can help you!

When deciding on the right audio recorder for you, the PC connectivity of the recorder is an important feature to consider.  Most inexpensive digital audio recorders simply do not have PC connectivity.  Others may have it, but require an extra docking station to make the connection.  A good recorder will connect via a USB cord or directly, allowing you to move and store your files onto your PC.

Once you have your audio files on your computer, send them to eDecree for quick and easy transcription.  eDecree prides itself on high quality transcription at low cost, thus saving you time and money.  Check out our website to see how we can help you! www.edecree.com.

Last week, we looked how data storage can influence your choice of digital audio recorder.  This week, we look at recording features.  Recording features are those that make your audio recorder easier to use.  For instance, voice recognition is a common feature on most mid to high end devices, and cue/review options, which allow you to find the specific audio you want faster, are also very handy.  Another important feature is the screen display.  Count on a good digital audio recorder to have bright, crisp LCD screen.

When you’ve purchased the perfect audio recorder, send your audio to eDecree!  Transcription of important audio is likely not your business’s core competency.  But it is ours.  And we do it well, with better prices than most.  So go to www.edecree.com and see what we can do for you!

Last week, we learned how to judge digital voice recorders according to their recording times.  This week, we look at data storage.  When we talk about data storage, we are not referring to capacity, but to management and supportability.  Some digital voice recorders with USB mass storage capability can store documents and picture files along with voice recordings, which is especially useful for business purposes.  More sophisticated voice recorders will also have data storage management menus with various folders to organize your files.

Once you’ve selected the right voice recorder for you, send your files to eDecree for quick and quality transcriptions.  Simply go to our website (www.edecree.com) and upload your audio.  We can have it transcribed for you in as little as 12 hours!  Save time and money, use eDecree today.
