Re-reading is not proofreading. Mark It Done Freelance Proofreading and Copy Editing Specialist becomes your second pair of eyes, ensuring your written communication is free of semantic noise—when your reader’s attention is drawn away from the message because of typos or inconsistencies in print or on the web. It can result in confusing, problematic, or costly errors. Mark It Done provides pin-point proofreading and content-centered copy editing services to businesses, authors, coaches—anyone who communicates in writing.
When was your last “Oops!” moment? We’ve all had them. That moment you realized:
- The proposal you just submitted contained a misplaced decimal in your quote.
- The handouts for your workshop were spotted with spelling errors and misused words the software didn’t catch.
- The sales report contained sentence fragments and inconsistencies left from combining several documents, presenting a careless image of your company.
- The web content you approved had incorrect contact information.
No matter where your office is—top floor of an international corporate headquarters, your kitchen table, or anywhere in between—we all use written words to conduct business. Communication must be clear, concise, and compelling. People form an opinion of you and your business based on your writing. Even if you’re an expert in your field, if your writing contains errors, your credibility will be in question.
Speaking and writing are different avenues for communicating. What sounds good to the ear may not read well in print.
How do you ensure your writing is error-free and carries the message your target market needs to hear? When you are so close, so passionate about your writing, you need your words proofread by a disinterested party. A proofreader/copy editor examines your document objectively, with a different mindset than you, the writer. The result gives your reader the exact information, impression and call to action you intended.
The skill of writing is to create a context in which other people can think. Edwin Schlossberg |
