Proof Reading *

FIRST IMPRESSIONS COUNT

Do you want to make a good first impression on people?

Of course you do, we all do. So what's the best way to make a good impression?

When we meet people face to face, we make sure that we're dressed appropriately; we act to suit the occasion; we adjust our speaking - subject matter, vocabulary, tone of voice and so on - to suit our listeners and we watch for signals from those around us. It's relatively easy to tell if we're an instant hit or otherwise.

But when we don't have that 'instant feed-back', it's more difficult to judge what sort of an impact we're making.

It's different when you're writing...

 

When we're writing to someone, it's impossible to know what mood that person is in or what he or she is expecting from us and we can't make adjustments as we go. In other words, when writing to someone, we have to make the right impression - the first time - there are no second chances.

So, if you've just spent hours of your valuable time writing a job application or resume; an essay or report; a web page or a short story or anything else others will read, then you owe it to yourself to make sure that what you've written is as perfect as you can make it.

Proof reading is as important as any other part of the writing process, but it's a step that's often overlooked.

Just to prove that I'm right, the next time you have a spare minute and you have a search engine at the ready, type in "employmnet" and see what happens.

This is just one small example of how easy it is to miss an obvious mistake (and from the thousands of entries found, you'll see how common this particular mistake is).

Why spoil a great piece of writing with typographical errors, spelling mistakes, poor grammar or just plain clumsy expression?

Click now to edit your work like a professional ...

Here's your chance to make sure that your writing makes the best impression possible. You need only spend a short time, surfing the internet, to see how many people are spoiling their chances with poor writing.

How many business sites have you come across which have glaring spelling errors, basic punctuation mistakes or just something not quite right about the way they're written?

Make your writing stand out for all the right reasons. Send the email to me and I'll have your corrected page back to you within 24 hours.
