Don’t let words get in the way of you and your customers

Fast. Reliable. Quality. No-fuss.

Content is how businesses and entrepreneurs attract and connect with loyal customers.

That content has to be informative, engaging, and error-free to build trust, not to mention easy to read. And there has to be a lot of it to grow an audience.

Churning out high-quality content—blog posts, newsletters, website copy, social media, brand books—is a massive undertaking that requires a team of marketing and content specialists.

Whether you outsource your content or hire an internal team, someone else needs to edit the content to ensure it’s:

  • error-free and consistent in style

  • a strong reflection of your brand

  • formatted to appeal to your audience

  • clearly and concisely conveying your ideas and ethos

Editing is quality assurance. But it’s also a step your team has neither the time nor the energy for.

Which is where Jaime at Pristine Editing comes in. Her professional editing services take your content from 85 to 100 percent, making customers confident in your product and reinforcing your strong reputation.

How I can help

When you want…

Copyediting

Technical, sentence-level edits to correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, repetition, and style

Includes:

  • A light fact-check for correctly spelled names, job titles, and other proper nouns

  • Sensitivity feedback regarding race, culture, and gender inclusivity (Pristine Editing and businesses can discuss what this looks like)

Best for: final drafts that need a polish or light scrub before publication

Copyediting + Style Guide

Copyediting, plus the creation and management of an editorial style guide

A style guide reflects the style and voice of the business and ensures consistency across content.

Pristine Editing develops the style guide by reviewing the business’s existing content and recording its preferences over time.

Best for: businesses that need copyediting and want a long-term partnership with Pristine Editing

The Deep Clean

Substantive editing or line editing addresses structure and organization, wordiness, awkward or confusing phrasing, and clarity and consistency of ideas

Includes:

  • Comments that explain questions, issues, or concerns and suggest a fix when possible

Best for: content that has been through several iterations and needs in-depth feedback and edits on lingering substantive issues, plus a final polish before publication

FAQs

  • Pricing depends on the type of content, the type of editing, the deadline, and word count. Click Tell Jaime About Your Editing Needs above or email Jaime at info@pristineediting.com to get your estimate started.

    We’ll determine the fee during the Nitty-Gritty phase, before signing a contract.

  • Jaime has edited website copy, blog posts, newsletters, social media posts, print and digital magazines and articles, apps, brand books and content, PowerPoint presentations, white papers, and more.

    Her roots are in print magazines, but since 2018, her editing services have been largely focused on marketing content and online publications.

  • Most clients send Jaime their content in Google Docs or Microsoft Word.

    Jaime can also make edits directly into your CMS.

    If you have a print publication that’s already in layout, she can edit it as a PDF using Adobe Acrobat.

  • The more notice, the better! That said, Jaime often turns over content within a week, a few days, or occasionally even within the same day. Email her at info@pristineediting.com to talk due dates.

  • Yes! Jaime can edit content within 24 hours from when you send it to me. However, it depends on the word count. She has turned over 24,000 words in two days, but generally, the project should be no more than 5,000 words if you want it edited within 24 hours.
