Congratulations! You’ve decided to publish an ezine. But where do you begin? As with anything, at the beginning.Before you write your first word there are some decisions you need to make. Ask yourself these 5 questions:1.What is the topic of your ezine?This may seem like a silly question if you are far enough along in the process that you know you want to publish an ezine, but you would be surprised how many ezines are out there that seem to have no solid topic. They seem to be there for the sole purpose of taking up space in their subscriber’s email inbox, of which there are few.Don’t let this happen to you. It takes far too much work to publish an ezine to not have a specific topic of interes
Also, since most court reporting professionals are 1099 contractors, home office equipment and space is required, plus a fax machine, extra telephone line or two for fax and business calls. An internet connection is a must for doing research for those hard-to-find words.
A new court reporting professional faces several years of diligent study as well as approximately five to ten thousand dollars worth of equipment.
Many states require a license. In states where court reporting professionals have to be certified, you have to pass the state certification exam. Other states where certification is not a must, the exams to satisfy the National Court Reporting Association can certify a court reporting p

No doubt about it -- court reporting provides a needed service in the legal community. But did you know that court reporting services also provide communications access for the hearing impaired? Think about it... people with hearing loss can now gain access to the world via the unique skills of a court reporter. You can be an independent contractor receiving a 1099 at the end of the tax year, work as a county employee for a court room, or even start your own court reporting firm. With court reporting, the possibilities for having the job you've always wanted have never been more numerous.
Court reporting professionals are part of exciting court trials as well as make history -- word for word. They report high-profile trials and even caption presidential inaugurations!
Facts About Court Reporting:
1. Court reporting professionals earn an average of $60,000 or more per year. (Including broadcast captioners and deposition reporters.)
2. Captioning of television programs (done live) is done by highly specialized court reporters called "broadcast captioners." U.S. Federal law mandates captioning of literally 100s of hours of TV programming (live) each week, creating copious career opportunities for individuals with these skills.
3. Many court reporting professionals use a method of captioning to offer individualized services for the deaf or hard-of-hearing via Communication Access Realtime Translation. CART reporters go with deaf clients as required to college classes to instantly translate speech into written words. The demand is so high for this type of skill that court reporting companies that provide this type of service cannot keep up with the demand.
4. Only a minority (about 27%) of the court reporting professionals in the United States actually work in court rooms. The vast majority are freelance court reporters (1099 contractors) who are used by attorneys to produce word-for-word transcripts called depositions during the discovery phase of cases.
5. Court reporting job opportunities will most likely grow as fast as the average for all occupations through 2012. (Source: The U.S. Department of Labor)
What Do Court Reporting Professionals Earn?
Court reporting professionals had median annual earnings of $42,920 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $30,680 and $60,760.

Median annual earnings in May 2004 were $41,070 for court reporting professionals working in local government.
Both compensation and compensation methods for court reporting professionals vary with the type of court reporting job, the experience of the individual court reporting professional, the level of certification achieved, and the region of the country. Official court reporters earn a salary and a per-page fee for transcripts. Many salaried court reporting professionals supplement their income by doing freelance work. Freelance court reporting professionals are paid per job and receive a per-page fee for transcripts. CART providers are paid by the hour. Stenocaptioners receive a salary and benefits if they work as employees of a captioning company; stenocaptioners working as independent contractors are paid by the hour.
How To Become A Court Reporting Professional
Let's be candid about this: becoming a court reporting professional requires a serious level of commitment, effort and money. It's not easy but the rewards make it more than worthwhile! Most students start at a court reporting school. Typically, these are private business colleges located in large metropolitan areas. Please see this link to view a list of approved schools by the NCRA. The course of training and practice takes most people several years.
Most of the painstaking work is in the development of the skill of transcription during live dictation. You begin slowly and then ramp up to speeds of above 200 words per minute. Accuracy and endurance are required to take down hours of rapid speech with dense material.
You will also need to either rent or purchase your equipment. A court reporting keyboard is needed during the training. Most students rent or buy a used manual machine (as opposed to a computer writer) for their initial schooling, but upon entering the job market, professional quality equipment is a must. Now days the equipment utilized by court reporting professionals is an electronic court reporting machine, a desktop PC, a printer, a laptop PC and the software to run on the computers which translates the keystrokes into English on the screen.

Most marketing people think of newsletters as quaint old things, like handwritten letters or mimeograph machines. While marketing is not immune to fads, newsletters are an absolute evergreen. After all, how can direct communication with your customers ever be a bad thing? And if you do it right, your customers will actually look forward to hearing from you!One reason newsletters are so hot is that no one is doing them. Some marketers may think they're hopelessly old school. Others may have tried to do them and failed (they're harder than they look). And still others are so buried under the avalanche of everyday emergencies that doing something as benign and friendly as a newsletter sounds almost unproductive.

“Businesses with fewer than 20 employees have only a 37%chance of surviving four years (of business) and only a 9% chance of surviving 10 years. Restaurants only have a 20% chance of surviving 2 years. Of these failed business, only 10% of them close involuntarily due to bankruptcy and the remaining 90% close because the business was not successful, did not provide the level of income desired, or was too much work for their efforts.”–excerpt taken from an article written by Rob Holland, ‘Planning Against a Business Failure’As a new restaurant owner (or soon to be), that quote must have sent chills up your spine.
