The Secret To Hiring Professional Newsletter Proofreading Services

By David Cook


A newsletter is meant to communicate important information for a brand. This can only be achieved when it is written in impeccable language. You need to engage professional newsletter proofreading services to fine tune the paper. How do you isolate a professional from an ordinary editor to guarantee the quality of your work?

Check the area and level of training for the editor. The best professionals are they who have invested in their skills through training. Choose a proofreader who is trained in an institution that is respectable and with a reputation of producing quality editors. With training comes accreditation and licensing, a guarantee that you will get quality services.

Editors require time to produce excellent quality scripts. Top editors have to peruse through each line and paragraph to check for errors. This exercise requires time and ensures that all errors are plucked out. Without providing ample time, you will receive a script that is full of errors. Your readers will not connect to the content as the errors will distort your message.

The editor handling your newsletter must be experienced. Just like wine, editors get better with age. However, their age is not counted in terms of years. Rather, it is the number of publications and transcripts they edit. With experience, they can spot errors easily. This experience also helps these editors to identify the writing styles that can work for inclusion into your paper. With amateurs, you risk the presence of errors that will dent the credibility of your publication.

The cost of proofreading should be reasonable and also customized. A reasonable cost is one that reflects the amount of work to be done, experience of the editor and how soon you need the work back. You will only be paying for services that you use or need. As a result, you get the best value for money. Compare the prices quoted by different editors to see where you will get value for money.

Hire an editor who understands your technical area of operation. Newsletters are meant to communicate to a specific audience. In most cases, the audience is in a particular field. The editors should therefore understand the technical elements of this industry. It is through their understanding that of technical elements that you get a polished paper that will be captivating to readers. The reality is that editing is not only about language. There are technical presentation and expression elements that can only be understood by persons with technical knowledge.

The work done by editors should be verifiable. It is unnerving to work with editors whose quality of work is unknown. To avoid such anxiety, check reviews of editors in your area. These reviews should be on websites that are independent and run independently. It means that the editor will not manipulate the reviews.

Take time to vet the editor before assigning him or her the work. Do not mistake expensive services for quality. Submit your scripts for editing as early as possible to provide your editor with ample time to complete his work. By the time it is distributed, you will have the most captivating publication.
