Default Re: Proofreading and/or Editing?
Hi AnnaLisa,

Thank you, your description of simple editing is exactly what I am good at. I believe I can market my service as proofreading and editing because there has to be people out there that need just simple editing along with catching spelling and grammar errors. Thankfully I have been proofing/editing with Demand Studios now for a year so I added that to my resume just recently (should have done so sooner, but hey a year looks pretty good in comparison to a couple months anyway, so I think it is for the best).

I am now actively seeking additional work in this arena. I enjoy it very much. I also recently got my first official "Virtual Assistant" gig as a Telephone Mystery Shopper and Call Evaluator. So I am going to stick with that as well because as the length of time and experience builds, I may find more work there too. Although I'm actually already looking and added it to my resume even though I just started.

But I know I have a couple great references in both of these so I am very happy about that!!

Take care, and thanks again, to all who have responded with the great info and viewpoints.
