Editing Services: How to Outsource Your Content Editing Project

We offer two kinds of editing services:

1. Quick pre-paid editing service: express editing services
Perfect for customers with relatively straightforward requirements such as proofreading/light editing of documents less than 5000 words long. No quote to approve. No back and forth emails. No delays. You pay online and your edited document is emailed back to you.

Documents must be less than 5000 words long.

This is by far the most convenient service we offer. To use our quick pre-paid express editing service, check out our editing rates, send us your document via our pre-paid editing form and complete payment online. For more details, please read our FAQ below.

2. Customized editing service:

If your project is more complex and/or your document is longer than 5000 words, our custom service is ideal for your project. Our sales team gets in touch with you once you submit your requirements using this customer contact form. Based on your project, you are sent a quote. Our sales team guides you through the entire process.

Here is a quick table to help you check if your project can be completed via our quick prepaid editing service:

Questions about editing services in general and why editing makes a difference

Who Needs an Editor and Why?

Want to write something more effectively? Then you need an editor. Almost anything that you write can be enhanced with the help of an editor. Editors will not only make your writing grammatically accurate, they can also add value with their insights. Outsource your editing project to Chillibreeze and see the difference it will make to your published output.

I’m a competent writer. Do I need an editor?

Yes, you do. The reason for this is simple enough. Even experienced professionals find it difficult to be objective about their own work. So they don’t always see the flaws in their writing. Writers who edit or proofread their own work are often like people who are trying to find a black cat in a dark room. A good editor can shed some light on their errors.

How does the editor help?

Whether you’re writing a business proposal, a novel, or web copy, your words should effectively communicate all that you wish to convey.

A responsible editor:
• Irons out the glitches in your writing and makes it clear and readable.
• Attends to the vital but time-consuming process of fine-tuning your content and grammar without significantly altering the style.
• Suggests additions or improvements to add value to the article

But what exactly does the editor do?

Editors:
• Assess and critique documents
• Suggest revisions
• Rewrite or repackage content to suit current trends
• Reuse or recycle content more effectively to increase marketability
• Proofread manuscripts and documents
• Pct as mentors to writers
• Offer light or substantive editing

Questions about Editing Services provided by Chillibreeze

So where can I find a good editor?

Ah…we thought you’d never ask! Well, here’s the good news. You’ve come to the right place! At Chillibreeze, we can take care of your editing requirements quickly and efficiently at a very affordable price.

If your document has less than 5000 words then you can submit the document online and get your editing work started immediately. If the file to be edited has more than 5000 words or you have a complex requirement, then fill out our client enquiry form and our sales manager will follow up with you.

We are the best at profile matching. Since we have a large and diverse network of editors, we can match your project to the type of editor you need. For example if you need medical editing, we can match you with a doctor or someone who specializes in medical writing and editing.

I know outsourcing editing to India is cost-effective. But I have heard English is not the first language in India. Is India really a good place to outsource something as language-sensitive as editing?

Yes. For decades, Indians have studied English…and thought and communicated in English too! They have as great an affinity for the language as its native speakers. Outsourcing editing to India is a win-win situation because-
• India has an abundance of educated and talented people, fluent in English, who have the required expertise and experience
• India’s telecom infrastructure meets international standards, so communication is easy
• You get great quality at a reasonable price

Why outsource to Chillibreeze?

Because we-
• Employ skilled professionals with expertise in British and American English. Editors with knowledge of style guides are available too.
• Provide audience-specific editing. Our editors are aware of global nuances and adjust their editing accordingly.
• Believe in confidentiality.
• Provide personal attention and quick, affordable online service
• Focus on nurturing a long-term relationship with our customers while helping them meet their immediate goals.

What kind of projects do you undertake?

Everything from fiction and memoirs to business writing, academic dissertations, white papers, project proposals, technical documents, medical research and much more.

Who can use your services

Publishers, Webmasters, Authors, Students, Companies, Entrepreneurs and almost anyone who needs a document edited.

What if certain parts of my document need revamping or a total makeover? Does your editing service also include rewriting?

Please note that rewriting or repackaging is completely different from editing. If you are looking for re-writing services, we can help. Contact us using our content writing and editing enquiry form with a description of your rewriting or content repackaging project and we will get back to you with a quote.

Questions about how it works: Process and Payments

What is the editorial process you follow?

It depends on what the client requires. We can even offer processes that include multiple editors. We will plan our process as per your needs. Once the document is edited, we have our in-house expert QC the document to ensure high quality.

What’s the difference between light and substantive editing?

Light editing involves checking and taking care of the following:

  • Spelling
  • Grammar
  • Punctuation
  • Capitalization
  • Usage
  • Numbered lists
  • Table of contents
  • Table and figure numbers

As part of the language/substantive edit, the following aspects will be taken care of:

  • Spelling and punctuation
  • Sentence complexity and use of grammar
  • Conciseness
  • Redundancies
  • Wordiness and/or triteness
  • Vague generalizations
  • Weak sentence style
  • Use of jargon or appropriate technical terms for the target audience
  • Consistency of abbreviations
  • Gender neutrality

Suggestions might be offered to the author if certain parts need to be rewritten entirely.

Do you offer substantive editing as well?

We offer substantive editing at slightly higher rates than regular light editing. Refer to our rates table for substantive editing rates.

What if I have a light editing or copyediting or proofreading project and I do not want to make an online payment without first discussing my project with your sales team? This means I need the custom option and not the pre-paid one. Will that work?

Absolutely! The pre-paid option was set up entirely for your convenience. Though we recommend that customers with relatively straightforward requirements and documents shorter than 5000 words opt for pre-paid editing, you are welcome to discuss your project with us before you make a decision.

Do note that for custom projects we have a $150 minimum order requirement whereas the pre-paid editing project does not have such a requirement. Use our customer enquiry form to contact us and we will get back to you within 24 hours.

How soon can you get my job done?

Document of up to 5000 words can be turned around within 4 days, at the maximum. We can do speedier processing too, but the charges will be higher. Contact us at editing at chillibreeze dot com for any further clarifications. We can give you an estimate of the turnaround time once we know more about your project.

What would I have to pay?

Check out our pre-paid editing rates.
