Transcribe Audio and Video Files with TEMI [Review]

Can you talk faster than you can type? How many pieces of content could you produce if you could simply transcribe your ideas and watch them come to life?

Why You Need A Business Vision for Long Term Success

Tips and Tools

There is a saying that goes like this: “Failing to plan is planning to fail.” When running a business, many people skip developing a business vision, with intentions on getting back to it later. Whether it’s being distracted by social media, getting a logo just right, or chasing a dollar to pay the bills, the critical business building planning often goes ignored. Again, you can have every intention of doing strategic planning when the time is right or when you make enough money to go on a retreat, but if you don’t make a point to stop you’ll never get the chance.
