our blog - Small Business Bites

Freelance Editing Services Ltd is a professionally run, friendly and supportive editorial business, based on high standards of excellence,
honesty and ethics. We’re a trustworthy, consistently reliable and expert provider of editing and proofreading services, and over the last
few years we’ve helped individuals, publishers and businesses in the UK and around the world.

We’re perfectionists because we know that hiring an editor is a big step, whether you’re part of a large corporation, a small company, a writer or a student. To help you decide if we’re right for you, we’d like to tell you about several important, key principles that inform and guide our approach to editing and business.

about our approach to business and editing

our core principles on business and editing

quality - the service we provide is always of the highest standards; we never cut corners or rush through projects and we are thorough and accurate at all times; we always provide something extra at every level of service and everything is double checked for quality before being sent back to you
support and care - we support you throughout your editing project and continue to provide aftercare after we return your completed document
understanding - we’ll talk to you to understand exactly what you need so that we can meet all of your requirements; we will clarify with you exactly what we will do before we start, so there are no surprises, and we will always answer any questions you have
reliability - we always keep our promises and do what we say we will; we’ll keep you informed and ensure you receive your documents back, to the deadline and requirements that you’ve agreed with us; if we meet any delays or difficulties, we will let you know as soon as possible so we can resolve them together
professionalism - we are open, honest and fair at all times; we treat our customers and our freelancers with care, courtesy and consideration
ethics - we have an ethical approach to business; we’re a carbon neutral company, recycle wherever possible, donate a portion of our profits to charity, meet our commitments to our freelancers and clients and work hard to minimise our environmental impact
expertise and advice - your editing is carried out by skilled professionals who are experts in their fields; we will remove ambiguity wherever we can, and if there’s ever any question about context or meaning, we will always verify what you mean; we provide extensive feedback, comments and advice to make it easy for you to enhance your work further if you choose to do so

These principles underpin all the editing and proofreading that we do and help us build long-term, trusting relationships with our clients. You can find out what this means to you by reading our ‘customer commitment’.
