Professional proofreading services for musicians

Make the most of your online presence with a professional proofread of your website, freeing up your time for more important things like writing and playing your music!

Why do I need a proofreader?

If you’re trying to get anywhere in the music industry, an online presence is essential so that your fans – and industry professionals such as promoters, venues, agents and labels – can find you and your music easily.

Having your own website is a no-brainer; it gives you complete control over how you want to promote your band. You can also get seen and heard by posting your music and listing your tour dates. Plus, building a mailing list of your fanbase is a great way to get news about your music and shows directly to their inboxes.

To give your band a professional edge, you’ll want your website content, social media and printed marketing to be as perfect as possible. But, if you’re busy in the studio, out on the road, or writing your next big hit, you probably don’t have time to check your website, social media, flyers, posters, etc., for errors as well.

Hiring a trained pair of eyes to proofread it all for you enables you to project a professional image of your band. And this is where I come in!

As well as being a qualified proofreader, I also worked in the industry as the online content manager for a national tickets & tours website for well over a decade – I have a wealth of experience and understanding of how to present bands and musicians in the best possible way.

Your website or blog is likely to be the first point of online contact you have with your fans.
Clear, concise and accurate content lets them know who you are, when you’re touring, where you’re playing, and when your new music is released.
It’s also a great place to let industry professionals know exactly who you are and what you sound like!
Digital marketing
You may think marketing is a dirty word and has no place in your creative process, but it’s a necessary evil to get your name out there and your music heard!
An email mailing list and your social media accounts are brilliant ways to keep in touch with your fans and followers:
✔ Engage with your followers
✔ Drive traffic to your website
✔ Sell your gig tickets and merch using timely emails and social media posts.
Getting all this content checked over by a fresh pair of eyes ensures that the details of your tour dates, times, venue info, ticket details and links are working, and it’s free from any embarrassing errors.
Additional services
Promoting your band isn’t just about having a great website – you’ll also want to make sure your fans are getting the right information for your gigs and releases so your fans can buy their tickets and new music.
I can proofread all your other band marketing, including (but not limited to):
✔ Your tour date information and ticket links
✔ Your flyers and posters
✔ Your media packs: band bio, press releases, etc.
✔ Your album packaging: sleeves/booklets/liner notes
I’d love to help you present your band in a way that appeals to your fans and music industry people alike.
