If you need to get over 1,000 pages of copy edited in less than a week, how should you go about finding an editing firm that is capable of such a task? Before you make a decision, make sure that the editing firm you're considering implements the following practices: Uses dedicated project managers. Each client works with a dedicated project manager who takes in the documents, assigns them to various editors, funnels them through desktop publishing (if needed), and returns them to the client. The project managers should carefully track the progress of each document ? so nothing gets lost, and no deadlines are missed. Uses editorial leads. For these efforts, the project managers should act as editorial leads, fielding style questions from the editors, communicating requests from the client, and quality-checking all the work performed. Uses experienced editors. No matter what type of project, whether medical journals, scientific materials, marketing copy or proposal editing ? a quality editing and writing firm should have editors who possess extensive experience with any type of project. Experienced editors can dig into even difficult copy without any learning curve ? and produce quality results, time after time. Uses standard processes. Quality editing firms follow a standard procedures sheet that guides them through the steps in the editing process, and follow a specific style guide for each client. Using standard processes eliminates questions and uncertainty when starting a job ? and produces a cleaner end product, saving time in the quality-checking rounds. Staffs around the clock. Editors and project managers should be staffed around the clock, working on staggered shifts from 8:00 a.m. to midnight Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Using staggered shifts allows an editing firm to be much more responsive to clients? needs. For example, clients can write copy until 4:00 p.m. and have the editing firm edit between 5:00 and 10:00 p.m. The editors and project managers of Dragonfly Editorial are capable of professionally completing large editorial projects in a short amount of time. Our staff is consistently willing to throw themselves into projects with challenging deadlines and complete them no matter what it takes. Once we commit to a project, we're in it for the long haul. Our clients appreciate our commitment, our attention to detail and our professionalism tremendously. |
