Sometimes it is just a matter of keeping things simple that helps.  Because of that, our rate schedule has changed a bit and we have simplified the way we price each project.  If you see our rates page, you will notice that you will see our basic rate, but if your project is NOT within that realm, we will quote it for you.  Because of that, we also guarantee that your quote will not change in the middle of the project!  We have a set list of questions that we will ask you before we ever determine the final cost of your project.

NO SURPRISES!

In an economy like today, that is ultimately a relief for ALL of our valued clients.

According to Wikipedia, A ghostwriter is a professional writer who is paid to write books, articles, stories, reports, or other texts that are officially credited to another person. Celebrities, executives, and political leaders often hire ghostwriters to draft or edit autobiographies, magazine articles, or other written material. In music, ghostwriters are used in film score composition, as well as in pop music such as Top 40, country, and hip-hop. The ghostwriter is sometimes acknowledged by the author or publisher for his or her writing services.

At ProTypists.com we are ghost writers in the sense that we provide smaller articles and blog entries based on the topic that we are hired to write about.  We enjoy writing and editing smaller articles as we learn so much in making our research quick, down and dirty and ultimately giving ourselves the opportunity to write about hundreds of different subjects in a months time instead of working on one huge manuscript.

Most of the time, our talents are dedicated to the editing and proofreading as well as maintaining the content of pages, and web sites all over.  Many clients have even found our skills to better their pocketbooks by selling their information and words in e-book format which we can layout.

Some ask us why we would do all the work and allow someone else to take all the credit.  We don’t.  If we are good our clients give us credit where credit is due and we have yet to have a client not give the praise our work deserves.

Transcribing Rates & Process

Pro Typists provide the following packages in which you can choose from. Each of these packages give you the element of options and turn around time. If you should have questions as to if your project does not fit into these packages, feel free to Contact Us and we will be happy to quote you for your specific needs.

In order to process and accurately quote your job, please first “Register” yourself (link is to the right) and follow the instructions to verify your registration. Once you have registered, you will find a new link to submit your project through. When you do so, your job will be processed through our system and we will contact you upon receipt of the project information to make sure all information is accurate and process your order for deposit.

In order for us to remain competitive, our rates have been simplified. Currently our hourly rate begins at $50.00 an hour for projects that involve clean audio and 1-2 speakers. The average turn around time is 4-5 working days for anything under three (3) audio hours. Any project that requires 24-hour turn around will need to be quoted so that we make sure we can meet your deadline. Any project that involves more than four (4) audio hours or more will be quoted by our sales staff to make sure that it fits within your budget.

Typesetting Rates

Protypists.com offers competitive typesetting services. We will work closely with your printer/publisher so that the accurate digital file types as well as the specifications are just right. Predominately our clients can and will provide the text as well as any images that they wish to have with the article and we will layout it out in a professional manner so that it is easy to read and easy to print. Final proofs are always proofed by our proofreading staff and provided to the client for their final approval before going to print.

Our rates remain competitive depending on the size of the page laid out. Rates start at $25 per page for standard 8.5 X 11 pages up to $75 for Newspaper size pages. Turnaround time is determined by the amount of pages and the timely manner in which we receive your content.

Proofreading Rates

Professional proofreaders are on staff at all times handling ALL of our projects with 3 pairs of eyes at any given moment. Should you just need someone to look over an ad, ebook, article or manuscript, we will be happy to do so. Depending on what we handle, will also vary your cost. Most rates start at $25.00 per item and can increase from there depending on what we are proofreading.

Writing

We have a small and intimate staff here at ProTypists.com, but there is one thing we all like to do, is write. Ghostwriters we are, but must limit our skills to smaller elements of writing so that we can pay attention to clients and the details of our writings. Blogs, news articles, short stories, website content, remarks, recommendations are all within our repertoire and enjoy a challenge in all subject matter. This type of work is based on a custom quote and so drop us a line to find out what your project might need.

Maintenance

Many busy writers, travelers, business men and women and even mothers don’t necessarily have the opportunity to keep up with their web sites and content updates or newsletters as promised to their fans and readers. Because of that, we have found a niche in which we at ProTypists.com provide that service for you. As an additional service to writing, transcribing and typesetting, we can also include the daily, weekly or monthly updates that some just are having a hard time getting done! An extra pair of hands if you will. Our monthly rates run from $100 and up depending on frequency and requirements of the maintenance.

Currently Pro Typists accepts all major credit cards and PayPal for payments.
