Clear Copy offers five basic services:

• writing,
• substantive editing/rewriting,
• copy editing,
• traditional proofreading, and
• research

(For details on what each of these involves,  click here.)

We can deploy these services for you in many ways, in both electronic and print media. Here are a few examples.

For professionals, businesses, and organizations

Web pages    We can assist you with any aspect of your webtext, from proofreading to text strategy and design. If you regularly update your site with new information, we can help ensure the ongoing maintenance of your high text standards. We can even do the updating for you.

Electronic newsletters and ezines    Keep your visitors coming back to your website and build credibility and good will by providing useful, interesting content to your readers through a newsletter or ezine. We can proofread and/or edit each issue of your electronic periodical to ensure error-free text, or write it for you using your content. Often, we can even provide the content.

Print newsletters    Whether your print newsletter's function is to provide information to your customers or to enhance knowledge and camaraderie among your employees, we can proofread, edit, write, and/or manage it to help you achieve your aims.

Technical documents    We've written and edited technical documents for government agencies, the forest products industry, engineers, educators, computer scientists, psychologists, and many others, and we've proofread hundreds of articles in numerous technical and scientific journals. If our expertise doesn't match your needs, we'll tell you, but chances are we can handle your project.

Sales and marketing materials    We've composed sales and marketing copy for small businesses, entrepreneurs, and publishers. Our best advertisement for such work is this website. If you like the way we put ourselves across here, you'll like what we do for you or your organization.

Correspondence and reports    When you're deluged with work, we can help edit or compose your document and even fax it for you. Our services can be especially valuable when you're on the road and need an office away from home.

What else?    Just about any text project on your agenda.

For researchers and graduate students

Researchers    We can help you prepare your research for publication by editing your proposed journal article. In many cases we can even compose your article, working from your outline of objectives, methods, results, and conclusions and from your furnished style samples of target journals. We'll stay in close contact with you as needed throughout the project to insure that your goals are met. Of course, all of our work for you is kept strictly confidential.

Graduate students    We can help transform your research and ideas into a well-structured, professionally edited thesis, dissertation, or research paper that meets your degree requirements. We've worked with many graduate students (sometimes also with their advisors), and we're proud that every thesis and dissertation we've edited has been accepted by the student's committee (often with high praise). We understand the importance of completing your master's degree or Ph.D, and we'd like to help you succeed.

We're delighted to work with individuals on personal projects. We can assist you with your personal web page, letter, resume, memoirs, book idea, or most any text project. Contact us. Professional assistance is only an email or a phone call away.
