Hello,
Here are some heartening articles about writing realtime, some healthy suggestions for standing up to our sedentary lifestyle, tips on identifying phishing emails, and a true success story about a reporter who learned the profession by studying online.
I’m sure you’ve experienced the increase in demand of our services. Streamlining our efforts is one approach to increasing our income and buying leisure time. To that end, we have organized a team of experienced scopists to help you with your transcript production. To utilize this service, log onto Active Reporter Services and click on the “Scoping Jobs Upload” link. Exchange those tedious hours spent editing with taking more jobs or enjoying time with friends and family.
As always, let me know what is helpful to you and also what subjects you would like to hear more about, so we can cover them in future editions.
Best,
Sheila
