Copy Editing / Writing

Does your bio make the phone ring?

Presentation is everything.

Typos. Faulty grammar. Incorrect punctuation. Nothing sinks your credibility faster than embarrassing errors.

Fortunately, it doesn't have to happen to you.

Most of us have heard the phrase “Content is King.” Well, it’s true!

Prospective clients often make a decision about you simply by reading your bio and topics. Based on the written word alone, they may make this decision before picking up the phone or watching your video.

What does your eSpeakers profile say to your prospective customers?

Does it say “King,” or is it a less than desirable description of what you can actually offer?

Many presenters struggle to write a bio that’s engaging, effective, and even grammatically correct. Very few presenters are professional writers and even those who are often struggle when writing about themselves.

But the bottom line is: sloppily written communication undermines credibility. Regardless of how knowledgeable and experienced you are, you’ll be viewed as unprofessional if your writing is substandard.

eSpeakers can help you become “the King” (or Queen!) of your own content with our new editing and writing services. We now have a copyeditor and copywriter on staff—professionals who know the speaking industry and understand how to make you shine! Our copy experts can spot even the most obscure errors and transform merely passable text into dynamite content that will sell you!

Copyediting (proofreading) Overview
Our copyeditor will proofread your content to ensure:

• Correct spelling
• Capitalization
• Word usage
• Punctuation
• Elimination of grammatical errors and formatting inconsistencies
• Awkward sentences are restructured
• Organization and flow of information is consistent so your biography is engaging and effective

Our copyeditor’s job is to find trouble and make suggestions—the decision to apply these suggestions is yours.

Copywriting Overview

Let’s face it, writing your own biography can be daunting. Who hasn’t felt strange trying to write a glowing review of themselves?

You need content that makes you stand out in a crowd. You need an effective, easy-to-read bio that tells the world you’re the person they should hire.

We deal with thousands of presenters, speaker’s bureaus, meeting planners, and media outlets each year. We know this market; we know exactly what each entity wants. Our copywriter will write a professional bio in the right style and format to demonstrate your professional credibility.

The best bios are memorable because they highlight the differences between you and your competitors. Ideally, after reading your professionally written bio, clients will be compelled to book you.
