Experienced copy editor for your B2B marketing and sales documents

Turning words into clear, compelling copy requires strong skills and experience as a copy editor. If being a sales copy editor or marketing copy editor (or even a tender writer or proposal writer) is not your usual line of work, you’ll know how hard it can be to get your words just right.

That’s where Proof Communications comes in. 

At Proof Communications we edit marketing and sales materials for B2B services businesses and professional services firms, including Australia's leading lawyers, accountants, business advisors and consultants.

And while we are a Sydney copywriting and editing business, our clients come from right around Australia.

One day, for example, we might be asked to be the editor for a complex article on tax law for a Sydney firm, the next a sales letter or an eBook for a client in Perth. 

Much of our work involves editing draft documents written by experts who need to turn their words into compelling and interesting material for their readers.

Why choose Proof Communications as your editor? 

• Your material will be more compelling and interesting. Over the last 15 years, our editing has helped a huge range of businesses to communicate more clearly and succinctly with their clients. We are often called on to turn challenging information into easy-to-understand material for websites, brochures, eBooks, flyers, articles and much more.
• You can call on us for a range of materials. You can be confident that when you choose us as your editor, you will receive quality material you can use with confidence.
• Your readers come first. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all editing. Instead we listen to what you need, what your readers need to know and we apply our skills as an editor accordingly.
• Attention to detail. We leave no stone unturned to ensure your sales, marketing and business development materials are clear, concise, and typo free.

“Rosemary has helped my business Speak with Presence in so many ways and for the better. She took the pain of writing and editing away from me. She wrote and edited my website and eBook to make them articulate, succinct and exciting. Rosemary is incredibly easy to work. She understands my business and has allowed me to focus on what I am good at. I recommend Rosemary and will continue to use her services, personable and caring approach to develop and grow my business.”

Quality in Law/College of Law
"Rosemary edited a series of academic research presentations into an easily readable and insightful series of articles without losing the essential research content. The advice she offers goes beyond the obvious and is always on the mark - she has made a real difference to the clarity and effectiveness of our communications. This is a crucial point of differentiation for our business - with most of our clients being lawyers we like to get the language right first time."

zfweb
“I had been referring my clients to Rosemary for copywriting and editing for some time before I needed her services myself. The feedback had always been glowing from my referrals but my own experience was a revelation. With only a draft business plan and a short chat, Rosemary developed material for my business that is not so much copy as an asset. She distilled my rambled ideas into something strong, succinct, elegant and yet still true to the original. I can safely say that with the exception of this recommendation, I will never attempt to write my own copy again. I recommend Rosemary whole-heartedly to anyone who recognises the need to outsource this difficult yet crucial component of marketing their business.”
Zoe Freeman, Director, zfweb, www.zfweb.com.au

Todd Coaching and Sticky Ceilings
"Rosemary is awesome. Her ability to write and edit great material for clients is matched by her common sense, integrity and passion for making a difference. And she is brilliant at encouraging other people to share her passion for expressing themselves well. I strongly recommend her monthly '5-minute read' newsletter FoolProof and the range of free guides that she has developed. Great stuff. Rosemary is highly professional, with ultra-high standards, and combines this with being someone with her heart on her sleeve. Great results, great integrity, great person - what more could anyone ask?”
Hugh Todd, Todd Coaching and Sticky Ceilings, www.toddcoaching.com.au

Adette Rosenbach, Director, KnowledgeCore, www.knowledgecore.com.au

Just a Conversation
“To fulfil a client’s requirement to improve their team members’ business communication skills, both verbal and written, we contracted Rosemary to run a workshop on the written component. Not only was she professional, thorough and easy to work with in all our dealings, the client loved her. The decision-maker sat in on the last hour of her session and wished he had been in the whole workshop describing Rosemary as 'awesome, fantastic'. So impressed was he that he then went on to commission some consulting work on his brochures and proposals. I absolutely recommend Rosemary for professional, written business communication skills and look forward to working with her more in the future.

I can't begin to tell you what it feels like to be able to cut and paste it straight into the email body, knowing that the quality of the copy is first-class both in terms of the style and how well you have summed up exactly what all the sessions are. It has been an absolute God send. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU."
