I am gonna share with you my secret weapon here,
not only on YouTube, but in writing as well.
It's called Rev.com and in their words,
Rev makes transcribing your audio
or video recording easy and economical.
At the touch of a button, our team of transcriptionists
take your audio or video recording
and transcribes them to 99% accuracy.
Simply upload your files or use our iPhone transcription app
and get a complete transcript in as soon as 12 hours.
Well, this is all well and good,
but what does this have to do with writing your book
without having to type it out?
I know there's a lot of you people out there
that aren't able to quite
(buzzer beeping) use the keyboard.
I am fortunate that I could use it myself,
but, here's the deal.
I'm a better talker than I am a typer.
Put your hands up if you agree with me on this one.
Are you a better talker than you are a typer?
Well, I think that this service is for you.
What exactly does Rev do?
Well, let me go ahead and explain it to you.
One, transcriptions.
Essentially what you can do is record your video,
be it on your mobile device or on your laptop
or desktop and you're gonna upload those video files
either to, say, YouTube or Vimeo
or even send it directly to Rev
and what they'll do is they'll personally transcribe
the entire thing, no matter how long it is
or how short it is, they'll handle it.
Here's the really cool thing.
For most all of their services,
it costs about a dollar per minute of transcribing.
Let me repeat that for emphasis.
For every minute you speak on video,
it's only a dollar for them to transcribe that.
Now, I don't know about you,
but that's pretty freaking stellar.
Now, what are you gonna do with that transcribed manuscript?
You can take that then and edit it into a full book.
(drum booms) Boom, there you are.
But Rev's services doesn't end at transcriptions.
In fact, if you're actually watching this YouTube video,
I highly encourage that you hit the closed captioning
on here 'cause you're gonna see some of the results
from using Rev.com for their next service,
captions, otherwise known as closed captioning.
You hear this referred to quite a bit,
closed captioning for the hearing impaired.
But, I'm gonna give you a startling fact.
A lot of people on social media
are typically flipping through a lot of their feeds.
Closed captioning is an easy way for them
to consume your content without having
to turn the sound on.
So, anybody that might actually be on a bus for commuting
or they're just lying in bed at night
and don't want to disturb anybody,
they're able to consume your content,
watch your video, and read the closed captioning.
This is a win-win for anybody
that wants to use Rev's service.
Subtitling, Rev creates foreign language titles
that are ADA and FCC compliant.
This means that if you're speaking in English,
that you'll have subtitling it in just about
over 30 different languages.
I think that's pretty freaking cool.
And that brings me to their next service, translations.
I said it already before,
but they translate into over 30 different languages.
But it's pretty startling that they cover that much
and they personally vet every single one
of their translators to make sure that they're high quality
and that the work that they put out
is accurate as possible.
Though this service is a bit more expensive
at about 10 cents per word for manuscripts,
or $7.50 per minute (bell dings)
of translated content on video,
this could definitely pay off
if you're trying to reach a wider market.
Though I share pros and cons in most of my review videos,
I'm hard pressed to find anything negative
about Rev.com's service.
There was one instance that I went back
and I checked some closed captioning on a video
to discover that about two minutes of content
was not properly captioned.
I reached out to Rev's support
and they took care of that instantly.
Now, this is the big plus about Rev.com.
They're speediness.
Not only do they consider themselves 99.9% accurate,
they are also quick at doing it.
So, if I have a three to five minute video,
it's typically taking them about an hour to two hours
at best, sometimes I've seen some captions
get finished within minutes of me submitting it.
For longer files, it'll take typically 24 hours
for them to get back to you,
but it's really, really awesome.
For Rev.com, I wanna go ahead
and give them my thumbs up
and my self publishing stamp of approval.

In the meantime, if you enjoyed this video
make sure that you share it
with somebody else who would be into it, too.
Till later, it's been Self Publishing with Dale
and I'll see you soon.
