For Businesses

Your Business in English

A business may know exactly what it wants to say, but communicating it clearly in English can be another matter. This is particularly important when introducing a new product, approaching a potential client or presenting information to an international audience.

We work with website content, product information, proposals, presentations, reports, brochures, correspondence and other business documents. The work may involve a single important document or a collection of related material which needs to represent the company consistently from start to finish.

Clear, Consistent Communication

Business documents often pass through several hands before they are finished. Information may have been written by several people from different departments, all with a different focus and using different styles. Material may also have been recycled from previous documentation or contain information that is now out of date. The result can be inconsistent and confusing.

We can look at the document as a whole as well as the individual sentences, improving structure and flow and checking that terminology, tone and presentation remain consistent throughout. Where several documents or website pages form part of the same project, they can also be reviewed together to ensure continuity and uniformity.

When English Is Not Your First Language

While a document may be written in English, grammar, phrasing and context can affect its meaning and tone. For businesses working with international clients or partners, we structure the language so that it reads naturally while maintaining the original meaning.

We have no expertise in your products, services, company policies or legal and business transactions. We can only ensure, through careful collaboration, that your company documents are technically and linguistically correct.

Before Distribution

Business documents are given a final proofread to check for small errors, including spelling and punctuation, before being returned to you for approval.
