improve your documents with our editing, proofreading, formatting and template service
We are committed to helping you improve the way you communicate. You can save a great deal of time and money by communicating clearly and concisely.
Not every organisation is the same, so we make sure you get a personalised, customised service that meets your needs. You won’t pay for anything you don’t need, but you will gain great communication skills, and documents that will impress your customers.
There are a number of ways we do this for many organisations:
Training
We have a large range of writing skills training courses which are being added to all the time. You can customise your requirement by mixing and matching modules, and we can write specific new material if you need it. We also like to build exercises around your own material where possible for a very modest fee.
Editing, Proofreading and Formatting
You may feel that that your written content is good, or that you have covered all the information, but that your documents appearance and organisation lets it down. Alternatively, you may feel you need to update existing user guides or training materials to take into account new developments in the products or software they refer to. We can polish your documents to make sure they are:
- visually appealing – so that readers will want to use it and it looks professional
- structured intuitively – so that readers can find the information they need quickly and easily
- concise – giving only the details the reader requires and not obscuring them with useless information
- clear – identifying the tasks or augments that are required so your readers know what to do next
- accessible – written in a style which is appropriate to the culture and needs of the reader
Editing and proofreading is best carried out by fresh, impartial eyes – we will pick up on spelling and grammatical errors, check the consistency of terminology, remove ambiguities, and provide useful comments to help you improve clunky text. We are used to working to tight schedules and sometimes at inconvenient times.
Writing
Do you want someone to take care of the whole process? We help you assess and plan what documents you need, their content including structure, how you can maintain it. We will improve the turnaround time to produce your documents and advise you on archiving requirements. We will also take care of the look and feel of your documents so you can rest assured that they reflect your corporate image.
Templates
Do you struggle to use Microsoft Word™? We can produce customised templates to reflect your corporate identity that you can use with a range of documents. For example, bids & tenders, reports and all marketing materials. All you need to do is select what style you want to use. We can include all the styles and logos you need, and tables, autotext, style toolbars and so on to save you loads of time.
These are difficult times, so our involvement can be tailored to your budget. If you have a specific budget let me know. Even if you have a small budget, don’t worry – I will work with you to make sure that your money is spent carefully to get the maximum possible return.
