Whether it's a website, brochure, or vehicle livery, your marketing materials are likely to be your first contact with your potential customers. The quality of those materials should be a reflection of the quality of the product or service you're selling, so if your website is littered with typos and inconsistencies you may be casting a seed of doubt in your customers' minds before you've even started.

 

I can help by proofreading and editing your marketing materials, reports, bids, and any other externally facing documents, to get them looking great.

How I work

 

I usually work in MS Word using tracked changes and comments but I can also work on PDF documents using comments (just be aware that this involves a bit of work for someone at your end to implement my changes so would not be ideal on projects with a short turnaround). I’m also happy to work directly in InDesign, should the need ever arise (usually at the last stage of producing marketing materials such as brochures).

​

​

What my service includes

 

As standard, my proofreading service includes

​

• Spelling and grammar check

• Sense check

• Consistency

• Inclusivity (formatting and language check for disabilities such as dyslexia)

• Tracked changes in Word or with InDesign story editor

• Comments where anything is unclear

 

​

Timescales

 

I will always aim to meet your deadlines and can often take work at short notice, particularly with smaller jobs, but for jobs over 20,000 words (around 35-40 pages) I may need a little bit of notice to clear my schedule. I will always let you know at the start of a job how long it should take.

 

​

Sample text

​

If you'd like me to read a sample text, I charge £50 for this service (for a sample up to 2000 words).

​

 

Confidentiality

 

Any documents that you send to me will be held confidentially and only stored whilst I’m working on them. Once the finished document has been signed off by you I will remove it from my workspace.
