Proofreading

Whether you’re writing an email marketing campaign or a brochure, you’ll want your words to be clear, concise and accurate. Spelling and grammatical mistakes can damage credibility and trust.

As an experienced business proofreader, I’ll ensure that your content is easy to read and error-free.

Avoid embarrassing mistakes

Ever sent out an important email only to spot a glaring typo seconds later? It’s easily done.

Mistakes are costly. 85% more visitors leave a website if it has spelling or grammatical errors. This isn’t great for business and it could see your ideal client heading off to a competitor’s site.

Higher bounce rate

More than just a typo hunter

When you’ve read something for the umpteenth time, you become word blind. Those sneaky typos and awkward phrases can become invisible.

That’s where I come in. As your business proofreader, I’ll ensure your content is polished and free of typos. No job is too big or small – I’ve polished everything from business emails to websites, PhD theses, and more.

The benefits of hiring a business proofreader

I don’t just spot spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. I also look at the bigger picture and consider:

Is your message clear and unambiguous?
Could anything be misinterpreted?
Is the wording succinct and to the point?

It’s all about making sure your content is as engaging as possible. So, whether you’ve written 500 words or 500 pages, I can help with my business proofreading service.

A few words from my lovely proofreading clients…

Karen has done a number of business proofreading jobs for me on quite complicated heritage interpretation panels and leaflets. She is absolutely fantastic to work with. Very quick to respond to enquiries and easy to arrange to work with. She does excellent work and is an excellent communicator.

I will continue to use Karen's services and I'm more than happy to recommend her to others.

Case Study

Business proofreading for an award-winning heritage project

I worked on a large heritage project involving the regeneration of Prestonpans’ Civic Square – the principal public space in the coastal town.

I edited and proofread large-format information panels on the town’s history. The content had to be clear, accurate and engaging for local people and tourists visiting the area.

The project won a national Scottish Design Award in 2023. My client has since asked me to work on many other editing and proofreading projects.
