Use your eagle-eye for typos to create your dream job reading enjoyable novels from your favorite authors!
Master key concepts and practical skills through structured learning modules. By completing this curriculum, you'll gain valuable expertise applicable to real-world scenarios.
Step 1: Set Up Your Business - We'll go over exactly what proofreading is and isn't, why the indie-author publishing industry is the key to your success, how to set up your business, and what you'll need in order to be ready to take on clients by the end of the course.
Step 2: How to Proofread WITHOUT Being an Editor - You'll learn the skills and tools required to proofread fiction (and what authors will expect).
Step 3: Learn My Proven Process - I'll teach you step by step my very own proven process to accurately proofread between 10,000 - 15,000 words per hour (approximately 40 - 60 book pages per hour) and give you the tools to practice and perfect the technique. This step is important because your earning potential is dependent on how fast and accurate you can proofread.
Step 4: How to Price Your Proofreading Service - We'll go over how to price your proofreading service (it's NOT per hour), how much you should charge, and how much money you can realistically expect to make proofreading fiction (it's more than you think!). You'll also learn about invoicing and delivering the finished proofread manuscript back to the author, and finally how to get paid!
Step 5: How to Find Proofreading Clients - I'll show you how and where to find authors who will pay you premium prices for YOUR proofreading skills WITHOUT needing a website or competing on popular freelance work bidding sites like Upwork (Fiverr) for proofreading jobs and clients.
