006: Scoping: The secret, money-making freelance business
Scoping is a freelance business that can make you a few thousand a month (yes, you read that right!), but there’s a good chance you’ve never heard of it before. It’s an in-demand, money-making business, and it fits right in alongside transcript proofreading. In fact, many transcript proofreaders have added scoping to their skillset as yet another awesome way to make money.
In this episode, I’m here with Linda Evenson, the most respected and experienced scoping instructor online, to talk about what scoping is, how much money you can make as a scopist, what skills you need to be a good scopist, and the best way to get started.

But how do you know which type of proofreading is best for you?
There’s general proofreading, which focuses on books, blogs, papers, and more. And there’s transcript proofreading, which focuses on verbatim legal transcripts.
Both work with words, but they’re both very different when it comes to how and what you proofread, the clients you work for, and the skill and experience you need to be successful.
So which one’s the perfect money-making match for you?
Turning typos into cash as a proofreader sounds intriguing, right?
