Final Proof is a boutique editing and proofreading agency. Our clients are often under the gun to get proposals and projects back to their clients or onto the design, printing, and publishing stages. They rely on our knowledge and expertise to ensure their content is error-free and in optimal shape for its intended audience.
Final Proof: the perfect solution for those who don’t have the capacity to professionally edit and proofread their content.
Clients value our efficient turn-around times because everything on their end often comes together at the last minute. Final Proof copyedits content for the design stage, and/or proofreads content, including web content, before it goes to the final print or publishing stage.
Given today’s challenging economic climate, businesses are raising their bars to stay competitive and win fierce bidding wars on contracts and projects. As such, presenting clear, concise, error-free content is a top priority.
Whether it’s content for bid proposals, grants, manuals, reports, plans, business correspondence, media releases, scripts, articles, website content, social media profiles, or marketing collateral, Final Proof keeps our clients looking professional, credible, and successful.
Mediocrity is not an option.
