RE: Academic Essay Proofreading Help
Good Morning,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit my proposal for Academic Essay Proofreading Help. My Offsite Assistant Darlene is a “virtual assistant” or “freelance proofreading contractor.” "A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a highly-skilled, independent professional who remotely provides administrative, technical and/or creative business support services" source -- VA Networking.com.
Using My Offsite Assistant Darlene services or “invisible freelance assistant” has many advantages and benefits:
• Use my proofreading services “as needed” not by “my time in the office”
• Less expensive than a full time employee
• Less training and retraining than for a temporary employee
• No overhead, no insurance, no benefits, no supplies
• Proofreading and Transcription services – corporate and some legal
• Administrative assistance
I have more than 25 years of corporate experience working as an administrative assistant focusing in many fields. Some of them include:
• Proofreading – checking documents for punctuation, editing, grammar, spelling, consistency, content fluency and accuracy (based on original information), and formatting
• Confidentiality—extremely important in any corporate request
I am proficient in MS Office 2003 and 2007 utilizing Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. I have experience in both electronic and hard copy proofing.
SCOPE OF WORK: I need to know the version of Word you are using 2003 or 2007 or 2010. This project can easily take 7-10 hours of time to proofread correctly. Usually proofreading requires reading it several times to catch all errors. I can quote this project including APA guidelines, citing in-text and bibliography check, tense, person, grammar, punctuation, accuracy (according to original information), formatting, editing , and spelling. I have experience with academic papers. This project can be completed by noon EST (11 AM CST) on Sunday, May 8, if I receive the information before 2 PM CST (3PM EST) on Saturday May 7.
PAYMENT SCHEDULE: $200.00 USD 50% - $100.00 to begin project 50% $100.00 upon completion
I will consider payment through PayPal
I hope you will consider this bid and contact me to get started immediately.
Yours in virtual assistance,
Darlene Dionne
