Medical transcription is one of those careers where you either hate it or love it. I have been a medical transcriptionist for a long time and still love what I do. I enjoy the continuous learning, take pride in my work and think it’s absolutely fantastic.

But, what will it be like for you?

If you’re thinking about a career in medical transcription here are a few things to consider:

Looking to build your existing MT business or just starting out? These marketing tips will give you some good ideas for finding new clients.

Promotion Letter : A very effective way of landing accounts. Send out a promotion letter to all your local medical offices describing your services. And follow it up a few days later with a personal phone call.

Freebies and Giveaways : Give away a certain amount of services for free, such as a free sample transcript or a discount for a certain amount of work. Tell clients about your giveaways in all your advertising material.

Flyers : Flyers are great for marketing a medical transcription business. Distribute them to doctor’s offices, hospitals, clinics, social workers or any other targeted customers.

Business Cards : Carry them with you wherever you go and give them out as necessary. Use proper business card etiquette. Always ask for a business card in return and don’t just stick the card in your purse or wallet. Glance at it a few seconds to show the person you are interested in them.

Ask for Referrals : Don’t be shy about asking for referrals from current clients. If you’ve provided a good service for them, they will be happy to spread the word about you in return. Ask if they would please pass out some business cards to their colleagues for you.

That’s it, 5 easy, affordable and effective ways to start spreading the word about your MT business. With a little practice you’ll be well on your way to finding new clients.
