So pleased to have seen the comments I was asked to give to The Guardian on Monday this week go live the following day. You can find the full online article here, which details my own and three other small businesses taking part and their plans for the Small Business Saturday event. “Shop Small”, everyone!

Outsource-Typing and Small Business Saturday UK 100
I am pleased to say Outsource-Typing has been chosen to participate in this year’s Small Business Saturday UK “100”. 100 businesses have been chosen from all around the UK for promotion, one each day between now and 6th December: event day. What’s in store for the event day is still a secret, so it will be interesting to see what they organise for us all and I am looking forward to meeting the other participants.
Here’s what they say:
“Small Business Saturday is a grass-roots, non-political, non-commercial campaign that supports, inspires and promotes small business and encourages people to support small businesses in their communities, both on the Saturday itself and beyond. It is a time to focus on our nation’s small businesses, which provide almost two thirds of private sector employment and almost half of private sector turnover. This year Small Business Saturday in the UK will take place on the 6th December, one of our busiest shopping days of the year. More information on Small Business Saturday can be found on the Small Business Saturday Facebook page, Twitter page and website”.
Some stats from the 2013 Event:
- 48% of UK consumers aware of the day
- Over 1.5 million Facebook views
- #SmallBizSatUK trending top 3 all day
- 40% of Local Authority support
- £460m+ spent in small businesses
I’ll be doing my best to promote the event on social media, in my local area and also through my website and this blog!
I hope that this has been of interest and if you want to find out more please don’t hesitate to contact me or visit the links above.
Now I’m off to go and draft my press release!
Medical and Legal Transcription
Before starting Outsource-Typing, I was an experienced litigation legal (11 years) and medical secretary and PA (4 years). We can take on both your digital and mini-cassette tape dictation and can copy type your handwritten notes from consultation or court, etc.
We are registered with the Data Protection Act 1998, never store information for more than 48 hours and can delete sooner if requested. We can also encrypt and password protect your work so that it’s bulletproof in terms of confidentiality. We’re happy to sign any confidentiality documentation – please let us know your requirements. We’re proud to offer a tailored service.
Examples of medical work offered (but not limited to):
Medico-legal reports, clinic notes and correspondence, symposia transcription, panel discussion transcription, consultation reports, psychological and psychiatric reports.
Examples of legal work offered (but not limited to):
Court pleadings, precognitions and witness statements, letters to Counsel, Statements of Claim, contracts, affidavits, leases, wills, property documentation, minutes, Children’s Hearings, employment tribunals.
You can send your tapes to us by using a service such as Royal Mail’s Special Delivery service as this is safe, secure and trackable. As for digital dictation, it’s really up to you – you can email us directly with the sound file attachments, via a preferred FTP (e.g. such as Transfer Big Files) or via Dropbox, which we recommend.
We offer a fast turnaround of work. Contact us for a quote.
