So you’re taking a medical transcription course but really need to make money now. There may be a few things you can start doing to make extra money until you finish your course.
If you really want to work from home, then consider general transcribing until you finish your MT course. This will give you lots of typing practice and listening skills while making extra money.
The first step is to find a few clients. You can use inexpensive advertising strategies to do this. Make out some simple flyers on your computer and pass them around. Good places are Universities, schools, legal and insurance offices, social work offices, and government offices.
The more services you offer the better your chances of finding work. You can offer services like resume writing, general transcribing, administrative help, and answering emails. Think of the skills you possess to help you expand the number of services you offer.
Take on a little work at a time so you still have free time to work on your MT course.
You can also try to find work online. There are a few sites you can go to and bid on projects, www.elance.com has everything from administrative work to software design.
It's pretty straightforward to bid on projects and once you have a happy client or two you will have the recommendation and experience to find more.
Finding a few side projects may be the perfect solution until you find work as a medical transcriptionist. It can also give you valuable experience while helping you build your network.
