Why Your Business Needs Proofreading and Editing Services
- Health and Social Care
- Education
- Publishing
The Health and Social Care Sector
Words are powerful when used in an engaging and informative way. However, content often needs to be written in a demanding and busy environment, so, understandably, mistakes occur. Nevertheless, how do you feel when you notice a typing error? Does it detract from the intended message? Whilst the whole world becomes progressively focused on its health, and people continue searching for more content regarding their psychological and physiological wellbeing, you need to provide a clear and concise text so that your content stands out – for the message you want to convey.
For the health & social care and wellbeing-related sectors, the services I offer consist of proofreading and editing. My work involves working with guidance & support organisations, counselling & therapy professionals, hospitals, mental health charities, psychology magazines & blogs, and social & community care groups. I work with:
- Annual reports
- Training manuals
- Website & blog content
- Marketing & promotional materials
- Corporate emails and press releases
The Education Sector
When demands on your time increase and deadlines loom – mistakes happen. Unfortunately, simple errors can impact the integrity of a publication. As the education sector is increasingly competitive, this could be the difference between someone choosing your course and your institution – or not. Correctly imparting education and knowledge is equally as important as the content itself.
I offer on-screen proofreading and editing services to universities, colleges, schools, education, and training centres. My work includes:
- Curriculum materials
- Course notes
- Academic papers
- Books & journals
- Training manuals
- Websites & blogs
- Marketing materials
The Publishing Sector
As many traditional industries are evolving to keep up with the digital demands of their customers, the publishing industry is no exception and is adapting to remain current. Changes in people’s reading habits, the increase in audiobooks, rising numbers of self-publishing authors, and the need for innovative digital marketing strategies are just a few of the current challenges for the sector.
The editorial services provided are proofreading and editing for books, reports, and journals. My services include a final polish, a sentence-level revision, and restructuring – depending on what is needed. My work entails:
- Checking against edited or blind copy
- Verifying proofs to house style
- Confirming hyperlinks, times and dates, names, and abbreviations
- Checking proofreading revised proofs
