ProofreadingProofreading can be vital for spotting mistakes, plus identifying potential improvements to your writing that really takes things to the next level and make your words shine. By identifying superficial flaws, we will help you produce higher-quality documents; crisper, tighter copy that is smooth and enjoyable to read, gets your message across and helps you achieve your business aims. Different from editing, proofreading is the final step in the editing process.
We offer this as an in-house add-on, prior to beginning our design and/or print services with you. Even the best writing benefits from ‘a fresh pair of eyes’, especially before it goes to print.How it works:
Step 1 – You send us your text Trackable edits help you see mistakes and review/confirm our suggestions, so for this service we request your documents in MS Word format. (We can then deliver proposed changes via the ‘Track Changes’ function, which will allow you to view, accept or reject them via trackable edits. Where it is more appropriate, we will also use the ‘Comments’ function to make observations, or query things you have included.) Step 2 – We proofread your work We will first read through your work, to get a sense of the overall text and message. We will then take a second pass, this time specifically checking for errors relating to grammar, spelling, punctuation and clarity. Step 3 – We send it back to you with suggested changes Observations and suggested amendments relating to both components will then be delivered to you, proposing how the overall flow and tone could be improved, plus specific suggested changes in terms of errors or possible alternative wording. You can then accept amendments and ‘lock-in’ the text, prior to us getting started with designing and/or printing your order. The cost: Adding this proofreading service onto your job with us will be £20 plus VAT per 1000 words, with a minimum charge of £20 plus VAT for documents with less than 1000 words. Should you be interested in using this service in addition to design and/or print, please allow for up to two extra working days for your order to be processed. |
Copywriting & CopyeditingAs well as allowing us to take the stress out of design and print for you, why not consider doing the same for copywriting too?
Communicating the value and benefits of working with your business, or why potential customers should choose you, is crucial. We can help take care of this as part of the package, working with you to help get those all-important key messages across, through quality text that shines. Whether its menus for a café or restaurant, wording on a leaflet, or engaging copy for your website, please let us know if you would like us to help with this element of your job. Perhaps you already have some text but could do with some copyediting? We can help take it to the next level. If you are considering asking us to help with copywriting or copyediting, in addition to design and print and/or proofreading, please allow extra time for this part of the process.
How it works:
We will take a bespoke approach to working with you on the copy you need to ensure your communications help you achieve your business objectives. The cost: This all depends on what you require. Please get in touch and we can talk through it all with you. |

What is the difference between a printer and a print management specialist?
Blurred Circle are a print management specialist, we simply manage all of your printing elements from quotation to design (if required) then completion and delivery of the project. The benefit of a print management specialist is to remove the stress from you and allow you to continue to work on other projects. A printer will have to invest money in different print equipment. Different print projects require different machines, therefore it is not feasible to print all jobs in-house. All high-street / online printers will outsource most of their printing, either to a central warehouse or third party company. Three benefits for using Blurred Circle:
