Copyediting is the editing of your company’s wording in materials such as web content, brochures, press releases and any other form of communication in which your customer will hear, see or feel what you have to offer.  

Copyediting is important to your business because your customers judge the wording they see, hear and feel – and act on it.  If something is spelled wrong, worded awkwardly or is offensive to your customers – your company’s reputation and its ability to retain and attract customers is on the line.

Three benefits your company will receive by using copyediting include:

• Saving money on reprinting costs by putting together correct wording on projects the first time around;

• Preventing possible customer loss due to misspelling, miscommunication or misinformation;

• Creating a professional image that is consistent with what you want your customers to hear, see, feel and think about your company.

Copyediting is a cost-effective way to make sure that grammar, syntax and punctuation is correct – and can point out suggestions that word processing programs and spell-checkers simply cannot duplicate.  Any project of any length – from books and articles to letters and plans – are all projects that can benefit from copyediting.
