My retired father wrote an FMCG Handbook. English is his second language so I suggested he hires an editor to review it and ensure it is professional, clear, and grammatically error-free. The book is 329 pages but its on PowerPoint and mostly bullets, graphics and pics. Not your typical book. I have attached 11 random slides/pages as a sample of what it looks like.

Hello Thanks for including the selection of slides with you project proposal, it was very helpful to get an idea of the amount of work involved. As you rightly point out, the text needs to be of a 'fluent English' standard, which is what I specialise in. I note that some of the text may need to be marginally expanded, which will mean reducing font size in places, but not everywhere. I have a good knowledge of fast-moving consumer goods (FCMG) so I do feel I would be able to add some value to the text as I not only have excellent English skills, I have a good understanding of what is being written about. The only thing I am unable to do is alter the graphics - I am a writer, not a designer. I woudl be delighted to help, but owing to a substantial workload at the moment, I would be unable to start for 10 days. I do all work myself, which is the only way I can guarantee work of the highest quality, as you will see from my profile. Please ask if you have any questions. David Dundas

Hi! my bid is something of a placeholder until we get a chance to talk more and I can take a better look at the materials to better estimate the time required; my current bid is based on an estimate of 30 work hours. After I've seen more of the handbook I can revise accordingly. I've helped dozens of would-be authors finalize their materials, and would be happy to edit your father's work accordingly. Please reach out so we can discuss further; I'm happy to share relevant samples of previous work as I know more. Thanks for your time and I look forward to hopefully talking more soon!

Welcome! I've checked your description very carefully, and I believe I would be just the right candidate for proofreading your father's FMCG handbook. Why? Because I have 10+ years of professional academic proofreading/editing experience, and also because I have a keen eye for small errors that others might not spot right away. Is this all? Nope. My previous employers (now my brothers in arms) have consistently characterized me as an intuitive, reliable, decisive and immensely flexible personality. BUT do not take my word for it. Check their feedbacks for yourself. Also, please check my PORTFOLIO for sample items to help guide you my way. I promise you this: You will need NOT go anywhere else for editing and proofreading ever again after giving me a shot. Interested? Let's talk. I do not bite!

Hello, I consider myself a skilled writer that strives to make the customer happy and completely satisfied. Since I have excellent grammar and spelling capabilities, I am able to determine the concept that is trying to be shared by the customer. I then turn around and correct missing links or other errors and produce refreshed content that is plagiarism-free. No online rewriting tool is needed in this case. It is important to remember that the content of your business plan – not just the appearance – could be the first impression a prospective client may get. If the prospective customer receives a document that is full of grammatical errors, misspelled words, and inaccurate information it can give a poor impression of the presenting business. It would be my pleasure to help you get your content in optimal shape. Regards

I would love to help you edit your father's book. I believe the job of an editor is to give the writer a fresh set of eyes with which to view the work and perhaps offer perspectives not previously considered. You can actually check out my overall writing style and tone at scribassist.com. My approach to writing is based upon taking chances as far as being ultra creative and ultimately making a significant impact on that reading moment in a person's life! You have to be smart about how you utilize words and sentences; screen/page space is a precious commodity not to be wasted. Holding a PhD in English, I know that I can create dynamic text for you.

Hi there, I have over 25 years of experience in the areas of editing and proofreading ranging from formalized office writing to informal casual writing. As a native English speaker, I'm very proficient in English grammar, language and spelling. My love for writing has grown into a passion to help other people effectively express themselves in writing. I will do your work with full devotion and professionalism. I assure you to plagiarism free research on your mentioned topic. To ensure the best results for your business, I’ll work with your project titled "I need an Editor" . I am pretty much sure about my abilities to do odd and difficult tasks. In order for you to easily see which words and phrases that I proofread, I will deliver your work using MS Word's 'Tracked Changes.' This can be especially useful for non-native English speaking clients, as it can really help you to see your mistakes and improve your spoken and written English. Feel free to contact me and let me just handle your work with 100% efficiency and uniqueness. Cheers Peter

Hi, I'm Rohan, and I'm ideally suited to edit and proofread your father's FMCG Handbook. I've gone through the attached sample, and from what I can tell it will either need heavy editing or complete rewriting in certain parts. I'm a skilled writer/editor with a BA in English Literature. As such, I've written books and edited manuscripts for clients and publications from across the globe. You can go through both editing samples and writing samples in my profile.

Hi, An experienced and skilled writer with impeccable grammar skill, strong visual awareness, and insists on spelling perfection, you can rest assured that anytime I edit, proofread, and analyze a document of any size it will be returned in tip-top shape and free from errors. Grammatical perfection is a necessity in a finished document, and I will analyze, modify, revise, and reword as necessary so you will be left with a superior finished product. I also do all my editing, proofing, and rewriting manually without the use of any online rewriting programs. When quality counts, contact me. Best regards, Hoffman

Hi. I looked at the attached sample slides, and I have a few questions about your father´s project. Does he want the book to continue in this slide format? If so, maybe it should be called a training course instead of a book. Are the slides meant to stand alone, without notes or accompanying explanations? I ask because I see many technical terms used which I assume are explained on other slides - if not, I made need to add slides with explanations (I will only know after seeing all the slides). Anyway, I am interested in editing the slides and proofreading the English grammar, spelling and sentence structure. Although I live in Brazil now, I am an American writer, editor and proofreader, a native English speaker with excellent language skills and years of experience revising texts of all kinds. I have worked in industry and commerce, so I´m familiar with the concepts and terminology used in the slides. I should be able to edit the book in 10 days, but I´ve asked for 15 because I may need to exchange ideas with you and your father if any points are not clear - my commitment is to make the slides completely clear to all your English-language readers, so any questions I have will need to be answered so that I can be sure your readers will have the answers. Please contact me for further discussion - I think the information contained here will be valuable for many people. Regards, David

Hello! My name is Marian, and I want to help you with this job. I looked over the sample, and I made simple edits to the first 4 pages. I cannot attach the file to my bid, so if you message me, I can send my sample to you, just to give you an idea of how I work. I'm not sure what is your goal with this book. If you need only simple edits, like the ones I did in the document attached, then $500 is very much. I can do this job for about $80. If you want me to also give it a fresh new graphical makeover, then my price will be about $250. I also propose to work with milestones, to be sure you get what you need from me. Thank you for the opportunity! Kind regards, Marian
