Be it a business proposal, a short brochure, a website, business card, or a completed book of any genre, it’s best not to edit or even proofread your own work.
That second pair of eyes, that alternate mind that confirms or denies whether you’ve made your point; enriched your plot with descriptive, thrilling, emotional scenes; or included the correct steps and keywords to support and reach your logical conclusion is essential to the success or failure of a written piece online or in print.
Much expense can be avoided by getting an editor, ghostwriter, or trusted business colleague involved in not just grammar, spelling, punctuation (copy editing), but also in flow and ease of reading, using the most current terminology and format intertwined with unique design and pleasing, enticing, accurate writing, graphics, and pictures.
Show you care enough to make all forms of media on-target for your audience, specific purpose, and desired response.
Present your writing in the best design possible. It is a reflection of YOU and leaves a lasting impression.
Let Clasid Consultants Publishing make that impression memorable, sustainable, and relevant.

I absolutely agree, it is best to have a third party (not a close friend or family member) edit your book.

Thanks for your comment. So true that a professional editor is usually your best and most cost-effective route. I don’t edit or proofread my own material … I know better.
