A focus group is a highly useful research tool. But how do you analyze the data? You’ll need a transcript. At Transcription Canada, we’re here to help. We can convert your audio or video recordings into text. We provide an accurate interview transcript at affordable rates.
We provide transcription services for many industries — including the business, financial, legal, entertainment and academic sectors. Our transcribers are highly experienced and accurate. They create top-quality transcripts for every client. This is what we need to know: the number of speakers, turnaround time needed, and length of the audio. Then we’ll get to work.

Our rates are affordable, starting at $1.79. We will assess the audio and offer a base rate for focus group transcripts that will apply to all your audio or video recordings of focus groups. This rate will take into account factors such as audio quality, number of speakers, verbatim vs. intelligent, timecoding/timestamping, and, most importantly, the required turnaround. This is what sets us apart from other companies. This base rate doesn’t change with the number of participants. The price will remain the same — no matter how many speakers are in your focus group.

Three Tips for Recording Academic Transcription, Zoom Transcription
1. Test your recording device
Do a sound test before recording your focus group. Make sure there are no background noises or other problems during the recording. These issues could interfere with focus group discussions.
Also, the recording device must pick up participants’ voices. Everyone must be heard. Make sure everyone can be heard clearly — no matter how far from the mic they are.
We can identify speakers by name if required. Sometimes researchers are only interested in the words shared during the focus group. They just want to know the data. If names aren’t required, we can identify the moderator as M and all the participants as P. We can also label male participants as MP and female participants as FP.
2. Identify speakers by name
Here is a helpful tip: have all speakers clearly state their names before they speak. This practice will help our transcribers identify who is talking. It makes transcribing the audio or video much easier. Otherwise, our transcribers must try and tell the difference between each voice, which can be a very difficult task.
3. Minimize over talking
Before the focus group starts, ask participants to avoid over talking. Ask them to avoid talking over one another, interrupting, and cutting each other off. Try and ensure one participant speaks at a time. This will make our transcribers’ jobs much easier, and your transcript quality will improve — transcribers won’t have to insert [unclear] and [over talking] as often on your transcript.;
