Service Description:
Through Takingdictation.com, I strive to provide affordable copyediting and copywriting services that promote the eloquence of the written word.  In this way, my goal is not merely to supply a product or write good papers—rather, my goal is to provide writing assistance that will give a client better understanding of organizational, grammatical, brainstorming, and other techniques so that the client him/herself becomes a better writer.  I make every effort to include a client in every step of the consultation process so that they not only understand what I have done, but also why I have done it.  Whether you are a student, seasoned writer, or businessperson, I will work with you until we have manufactured a satisfactory result.  Please see the services section of my website (http://takingdictation.com) to see if my experience is right for you or your business.  Rates vary by project.

WHY CHOOSE TAKINGDICTATION.COM?

Choosing Takingdictation.com can be beneficial to clients for several reasons:
NON-BIAS:  Since I am the sole proprietor of Takingdictation.com, I can provide a viewpoint that is not influenced by the red tape, politics, and excessively high costs that often dominate the corporate world.  While I am aware of the social norms that frequently drive businesses and individuals to financial and academic decisions, I do my best to look at all sides of the project and provide the result that is best suited to my client.  In other words, it's about the client and the art, not about my business.

INCREASED MOTIVATION:  My income is generated from the work commissioned by my clients.  The simple fact that a poor, late,  or otherwise unsatisfactory product means I receive no pay motivates me strongly to work to the best of my ability and ensure a client's continued patronage.

KNOW-HOW:  As a previously published author, I know the expectations of submissions.  I have worked as a personal writing consultant with the Central Michigan University Writing Center, and as such I have had extensive experience in one-on-one tutoring, online consultation, and looking critically at documents that are essential to both academic and business success.  

SAVINGS:  Hiring a freelancer often is significantly cheaper than hiring from a firm.  I believe that it is possible to gain revenue by lowering rates--people will not buy what they cannot afford, and if rates are cheaper, clients come back more often.
