I recently engaged CRS Editorial for a project which had a pretty tight turnaround to hit a printing deadline. Craig was fab! He was fast, efficient and really clear with his feedback and support. Cannot thank him enough for his prompt and professional service.

How many hats do you wear at any one time?
Quite a few, I imagine.
Being a business owner can present excitement and challenge, and there’s a feel-good rush when you are able to overcome an obstacle, look back on the hurdle and say, ‘I did it!’

Excellent service from Craig in proofreading my book “Be Reet”. I thought I had an eye for detail but Craig’s experience and expertise have definitely enhanced the finished article. A prompt but unrushed response provided further reassurance to me that the job was being done properly. Thanks for your help, Craig.

A pleasure working with you, Craig. Your part in the ‘Be Reet’ book by author Richard Parkin, in particular ensuring correct punctuation and grammar, was extremely valuable. Your eye for other detail and content suggestions all helped in what has been a very satisfying production. Richard picked up his books this morning and left my house a very happy man!
