I have prepared text from my company's brochure (I provide leadership development trainings and coaching in the UK). My current website is leadct.co.uk. I am looking for a native British English speaker with experience in proof reading to go through the document to make sure the english, grammar and punctuation are all in order. The word count in the document is 3410 and I need it done in by end of day Wednesday 11th of July . I believe the document in already in good shape , my English is rather good , or so I think (after all I have written a dissertation and several essays in philosophy)! I think it would be useful if I say what I am exactly looking for: I am not looking for any major re-writing, only consider punctuations, grammar and choice of words if you think they are not a good choice. If you find some sentences that perhaps it sis best if they are re-written or restructured (if they are too long or difficult to comprehend for example) I appreciate if you can point them out and suggest an alternative. The length of text in each page is carefully decided upon to fit in the brochure format along with graphics I am using. So to avoid designing the layout and graphic I am really not looking for increase in word-count. A few of words here and there could be fine but ideally not much more. This will hopefully make it less taxing for you too! To make it easier for you I have hilighted a few words in the document in red that might need more attention to make sure they are Ok. I want the document back in track changes so that I can clearly see what has changed. After you send me the documents I want to be able to speak with you briefly about your proposed changes before finalising it over the phone. So please have a UK phone number. I might need to also to speak to you very briefly before I award the project to you. I might not manage to make a decision about who to award this project to before Saturday 2 PM as I will be quite bust until Saturday morning. I have other copy editing jobs in pipeline for future as I build my new website and prepare my training materials etc so if it works well on this assignment you will have an advantage for future ones.

Dear Employer, I am a highly-skilled writer who has strong visual awareness, exemplary grammar and spelling knowledge, and the ability to analyze and modify. When it comes to missing links and correcting errors, look no farther. Remember, your content could be a first impression. If you send out material that is riddled with misspellings, grammatical errors, and wrong information, you aren’t going to be presenting a good image of your business. Here is the summary what you have requested. Task: Proof reading - 05/07/2018 13:39 EDT Proposed Deadline: 3 days Let’s get that content in tip-top shape today. Best Regards, Roger Wilsher

Brightly-colored and informative, brochures are a cornerstone of any good marketing plan. They are some of the most versatile, and effective, tools that a company has to inform customers of their products and services. They’re also key parts of any well-crafted media kit. Regardless of your industry, I know that my brochures are effective pieces. Why? I use benefits-oriented headlines and readable content to shepherd even your most-distracted client through the copy.

Hello, I am a detail-oriented, meticulous writer with a hard work ethic who is committed to excellence and producing a first-class product. Because of this, I am comfortable working on complex projects that may include business terminology and phrases. I am a well-rounded professional with experience in multiple fields which enables me to take a customer's concepts or basic ideas and formulate an error-free business plan that incorporates those thoughts. An entity's business plan is quite often judged by more than just the quality of its concepts or ideas. The quality and appearance of a business plan is just as vital to some investors as the concept itself. Since a business plan is the first impression most people have about a business, it is imperative that a business does not compromise on quality. Regards

"Hello, My vast understanding of English helps me a lot. I am able to read upto three hundred words per minute, which is well above the average person, and I do this with a hundred percent comprehension of the material i read. This together with my skills can help me edit your document of a thousand words within twenty four hours and make it a mistake free article. I can also rewrite and proofread documents within the same amount of time as editing. One thing I can promise you is that I treat my clients work with the utmost respect and I can never steal nor copy your work and claim it to be my own,my mother brought me up well enough to know that I should treat others how I wish to be treated and stealing a clients work is not how I would wish to be treated. I will be able to also correct grammatical errors which appear anywhere in the article since this is in my vast skillset. I can also give detailed descriptions and expalanations of whatever that you request. Regards "
