= Editing Business Writing =

Editing in any type of writing is the final phase of the writing process. In business the editing process takes on a whole new meaning; because a badly written document may carry the wrong message, give a bad impression to the reader, etc. Editing usually takes half the time it takes to write the text in question. Editing consists of revision, proofreading and evaluation of your text. Taking a long pause is the best way to start your editing process. This will clear your head a make you more objective.

The revision consists to improve the composition and sentences of the message. Choosing the right tone and the proper dynamic might bring a positive feedback. Proofreading consists of reviewing grammar, spelling, punctuation, format and the mechanics of the message.

A text without mistakes means that the message gets to the reader clearly and this makes your conversation more efficient and by extension the business becomes more efficient.

Evaluation of the text is analysing whether your message gets to the reader without any interferences. Using these steps while editing you will be able to write a clear and concise business document.
