COMPANY
EDITING AND PROOFREADING SERVICE
With my editorial skills I can help your business by:
-
checking
draft documents in respect of spelling, grammar and
punctuation
-
improving
the structure of sentences to enhance clarity and
conciseness, using plain English
-
providing
advice on style and layout
-
helping
to develop a house style for documents produced in-house
-
ensuring consistency
of style and fact
-
revising, rewriting and condensing material.
I can check your documents and publications to avoid
embarrassing misprints and unfortunate or unclear wording.
Sending out printed material containing errors and
inconsistencies will not create a favourable impression
with prospective customers or clients.
APPLICATIONS
OF EDITING AND PROOFREADING
Whatever your requirements, whether it is a large and
important report or a leaflet for mailing to customers, I
can provide a personal but professional service tailored
to your needs.
Consider also that a fresh and objective pair of eyes to
read through your written material can save wasted time
and money at a later stage and avoid embarrassing
mistakes. All too often imaginative writing or brilliant
design can be let down by inconsistencies of style and
grammar, poor punctuation and spelling, and unclear
meaning.
The following are just a few of the items that need
careful preparation and checking before printing and
circulating:

advertisements

annual
reports and accounts

application
and proposal forms
