The importance of proofreading
Why proofread? Well, you only get one chance to impress a new client and it is so easy to alienate an existing client with an inaccurate or confusing document. Hiring a professional to check and correct your proofs can eliminate the spelling, punctuation, and grammar errors and a proofreader can also offer advice over ambiguous or woolly wording. There are many advantages and benefits of proofreading.
For examples of how my proofreading services have helped clients please visit the case studies page.
