How long does it take you to copy edit, proofread, and return business content?

It depends on the length of the work and how busy I am with other proofreading or editing. I normally aim to return work within five working days, although if you need it back more quickly please let me know and we’ll agree a deadline.

Do you write or create original business documents?

I polish, edit, and proofread work that’s already been written. If you need a writer to create original operational content, please contact me and I’d be happy to provide some suggestions.

What type of business document advice do you offer?

I read through your content as your ideal reader would, and edit your business writing to get your points across. If there’s a specific area that I think could be strengthened by you rewriting, clarifying, or otherwise changing your work, I will provide suggestions for improvement.

How do I know if I need document copy editing or proofreading?

All of my prices include both copy editing and proofreading, so I’ll always edit your business documents so they’re perfect for your audience, including a complete proofread to make sure it’s error free.

Are your business document editing and proofreading quotes fully inclusive?

All quotes and prices include copy editing and proofreading for a specific number of words. The price includes communicating with you, receiving the work, reading, reviewing, and understanding the content, carrying out two reads, complete editing and proofreading, comments, advice, support, and aftercare. If there ever needs to be a change to the pricing, I would contact you and agree any changes before carrying out any work, but that’s very rare.

Can I see a list of projects you’ve worked on?

Yes, I have a project list that summarizes the types of copy editing and proofreading work that I carry out. You can filter by topic and service type.

Do you edit in US or UK English?

I can edit in either version as I am both a US and UK citizen and have lived and worked in the UK and the US. Unless you tell me otherwise, I will edit and proofread to US English.

What document formats do you edit in?

I can edit in Word or Google Docs. If I edit in Word, I will send you two versions of your file — one that tracks all the changes I have made, and one with all those changes "accepted." Under some circumstances I can also proofread PowerPoint slides and PDF documents, using “sticky notes” or the proofreading marks function.

Do you keep my individual writing style and approach?

Yes, I edit with sensitivity to make sure your thoughts, ideas, and research are coming through. I also ensure your writing is clear, concise, and easy to understand. I edit for flow and comprehension, so you get your point across in the most effective way. It still sounds like you wrote it, only more precise.

Can you edit to a style guide?

Yes, just send the style guide to me, let me know your requirements, and I will edit and proofread to those needs. I am also familiar with many style and reference frameworks, including AP, Chicago, Harvard, and more.

Where can I find out more?

I promise they’re easy to read, and they’re full of information. If you have questions about your individual needs, please get in touch and I’ll be happy to answer them.
