Jott - Episode One

While I was hiking in the nearby mountains today I decided that I am going to do a four part blog series on Jott, a free “over the phone” voice to text transcribing service. I’ve been using it for the past six months now, and it is extremely useful. While this series does stray somewhat from Marketing, it is a great business tool that I have used numerous times to record me ‘to do messages’ while away from the office.

The service can be a great tool for a number of different applications. The four parts of the series will be:

  1. Introduction (recordings from today - see below)
  2. How to leave yourself a reminder or a ‘to do’ message with Jott
  3. How to post to your blog with Jott
  4. How to send a mass email with Jott

I’ve found this great new service called the Jott. It lets me call in and record a message which is then transcribed and uploaded to my blog. I don’t have it completely setup right now, so it’s just going to email me this transcript and I will copy and paste it to my blog but I’m starting a week long review of Jott. I’ll be uploading all these to the blog and I hope you check them out. This is the first one and it is totally completed over the phone while I’m up here by this reservoir up above Cottonwood Canyon.

Captured later that day, via cell phone:

Okay, part two of the blog. I’m sitting here by a river so I’m not sure how well this is going to translate or transcribe out. But, during this week I plan on doing a blog entry about how businesses can use this. Also, about how it can be used to send mass emails, how it can be used to update blogs, how it can be used for a multitude of, for a variety of different options that are really valuable it’s a great tool so far. I’ve been using it for about six months, and I’ve been very pleased with it. So, I will be blogging from home some more.
