Avoid the #1 Brand Killer
According to Disruptive Communications, “poor spelling or grammar” is the #1 Brand Killer in the eyes of consumers.
Your company has a valuable product or service, but if your messaging misses the mark or is riddled with errors, you could easily:
- Fumble opportunities. Mistakes turn off potential customers and cause you to miss profitable opportunities.
- Squander time and energy. If you’re spending your time editing, that means less time focusing on creating new compelling campaigns and doing what you do best.
Now, you could find a freelancer from whichever platform is popular this month and cross your fingers that they understand your industry and know how to edit with just the right touch…
Or you could sign a pricey long-term contract with a big editing company and hope they deliver what they promise…
But there is a better way to find the flexibility of a freelancer and the expertise of a professional editing service…

CASE STUDY
How We Helped Forbes Succeed in a New Digital Era
Forbes, the undisputed leader in business media, reaches tens of millions of people each month. In 2010, the brand launched an industry-changing sponsored content platform. Here’s how the Forbes Content Studio achieved wild success, backed by a best-in-class copy editing team.
Avoid Freelancer or Costly Hiring Headaches
While freelancers offer flexibility when it comes to proofreading services, their loose contract terms mean you’re exposed to the risk of them flaking out at any point—leaving your marketing department stranded and scrambling to meet deadlines.
In-house proofreaders are great—but you may not have the budget for one. Not to mention, it takes an average of around 42 days to hire a new employee.
When you partner with Super Copy Editors for your marketing department’s proofreading needs, we can start right away and blend in seamlessly with your team and processes. You’ll save the time and expense of hiring and pay only for what you need us to review for you. (No monthly minimum charges or hidden fees.)
Plus, our On-Time Guarantee means you’ll never be left empty-handed as your deadline approaches.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Proofreading Services for Marketing Teams
What’s included with your proofreading services for marketing departments?
We offer these standard services (and more):
- Spelling
- Punctuation
- Grammar
- Word choice
- Conciseness
- Sentence structure and flow
- Consistency in style and voice
- Revising as needed for clarity
- Ensuring your message resonates
We can provide suggestions to maximize your desired outcome for each document you send us: Whatever it is you’re asking the reader to do or to take away from the text, we can help you increase the impact of that goal.
Of course, when your copy has been finalized and just needs a straightforward careful proofread for any major errors, we can do that too—with finesse.
How much do you charge?
Our pricing starts at $80 per hour for proofreading or copy editing of marketing materials. We understand that everything happens quickly and changes constantly in the world of marketing, so we also offer rush rates for same-day turnarounds. And when you absolutely must have something within the next hour or so, we’ll do our best to make that happen for you during our business hours.
Remember, when you hire Super Copy Editors, you’ll get not only highly accurate copy editing or proofreading, but also individual attention—which larger editing services cannot or will not give you.
Which file formats can you work in?
We can handle most common file formats, such as:
- Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx)
- Microsoft PowerPoint (.ppt, .pptx)
- JPG
- GIFs
- Rich text format (.rtf)
- Plain text (.txt)
- Adobe Acrobat (.pdf)
- Google Docs
- Google Slides
We’re also more than happy to review website text or even videos for you.
Which style do you use?
We can adjust to any specific style you require. We’re very experienced with Chicago Manual of Style, Associated Press, APA, MLA, AMA, and New York Times, to name a few.
If you have a custom in-house style, we’ll learn it like nobody’s business—and we won’t ever charge you some silly “style guide reading” fee, like other editing services do. Once we begin working with you regularly, we’ll even begin compiling a personalized style guide for you so that we can keep everything consistent going forward. That’s a free service.
I need you to keep my project confidential. Can you do this?
Absolutely. We never share your private information. In addition, we regularly train our editors in current best practices for maintaining confidentiality and protecting your information. It’s very important to us because we know it’s important to your organization. Of course, we’re happy to sign a nondisclosure agreement with you as well. We work with pharmaceutical companies and know our way around 25-plus-page NDAs. They’re not a problem.
