Editing: Business Documents
Given that our clients are all experts in their fields, it’s not surprising that Words at Work does a lot of editing, working with client content, rather than writing from scratch. Our task is to ensure our clients’ content communicates effectively. While every project has different needs, editing generally involves a multi-pronged approach.
We edit to align a client’s objectives with readers’ needs, checking for:
- arrangement of the information
- flow and logic
- tone
- consistency
- grammar
