Proofreading Services

Here at WPR, we provide specialist proofreading services for marketers, covering all types of content, from social media plans and reports through to white papers and website copy, presentations and adverts.

Every day, our team of sub-editors pores through a huge range of marketing collateral, checking grammar, vocabulary, punctuation and spelling, as well as consistency of voice and style, document formatting, pricing and links.

Consistently receiving high praise from clients across food and drink, engineering, manufacturing, retail, leisure, foodservice, construction, property, HVAC and more, our mission is to provide clients with content that is:

• Compelling to read
• Easy to understand
• Error-free
• Polished and professional
• Better than the competition.

Our Editing Experience

Our dedicated proofreading team has experience of creating and sub-editing content for national and regional newspapers, including The Guardian and The Mail, and has used this inside knowledge to implement our specialist content-checking processes.

Working for clients such as National Trust, Greene King, Endsleigh, Hungry Horse, Electrolux, Baxi, Office Depot and Rehau, we provide a long list of proofreading services, all designed to help busy marketing teams produce work that meets the highest standards. From videos to newsletters, blogs to tweets, we offer a fast and reliable proofreading service for B2B and consumer marketers right across the UK.

More Than a Proofreading Agency

Led by an NCTJ-qualified journalist, our sub-editors are not only highly skilled proofreaders, they are also experts in enhancing the clarity of text through adjusting vocabulary and tone of voice to suit the target audience.

For more than 20 years, we have helped our clients to refine their messages across paid, earned and owned channels. We are very proud of our track record, not just in identifying and rectifying mistakes before the copy reaches its intended audience, but of the quality of the content we help our clients to craft too.

More Than Just Copy-Editing

At the heart of our proofreading services is the WPR style guide. Created by our sub-editing team, it ensures that the work we proof isn’t just error-free, it upholds the same standards that professional journalists use to write and format their stories.

It’s also adapted to follow social media nuances and ensures we provide messaging that’s easily digestible and engaging for consumers, as well as reflecting trends in content consumption.

Why Do You Need a Professional Proofreading Service?

When a journalist sees a mistake in an email pitch, it will probably get deleted. If a potential customer spots an error on a website, they will move on to a competitor.

We know that all content creators miss things – when you read your own work, it’s almost impossible to spot the mistakes.

That’s why we think our eagle-eyed gems are worth their weight in gold, and why our clients do too.
