- Do you dread writing those pesky plans, courses, and advertising materials because grammar isn’t one of your strengths?
- Have you written your autobiography and aren’t sure what to do next?

- Would you like to attract more paying clients or secure funding now that your writing is free of errors?

Hi, I’m your virtual assistant and proofreader/copy editor Marion
I specialize in helping small business owners and non-fiction authors create polished, professional results that build trust and credibility with their audiences.
Whether you’re:
- A business owner looking to attract more clients and enhance your professional image, or
- An author ready to ensure your manuscript is flawless and publication-ready
I’m here to support you with the solutions you need to shine.
I help you tackle those written tasks that are pivotal for your business credibility – yet difficult for you to finish and deliver.
And that means …
You can now confidently present meticulously professional key documents, reports, proposals, etc. to your clients to seal that deal.
How does it all work?
Together, we will:
- Identify the message you want to convey
- Determine the level of proofreading or editing you need
- Assess which format suits your writing best
Then, I will:
- Work my magic on grammar, spelling, and sentence structure
- Format your work according to your preferences (if you want)
**Pricing**
Proofreading or editing your work doesn’t have to break the bank!
We can either agree on a package price or an hourly rate, whatever suits you best, but as a rough idea, I charge from NZ$80 per hour (that’s around 4cts per word) for a copy edit.
P.S. I work with clients all over the world, so if you’re not in New Zealand, you can pay in your own currency via Stripe payments (AUD, USD, CAD, EUR).
Just another thought…
Why waste your time working out a conundrum of appropriate words and phrases, layouts, tone and tense, desert or dessert… and best of all: the apostrophe dilemma.
Value your time – do what you love, and what you are brilliant at!
And I’ll happily be the quirky one who loves all this detail, this massaging
of words, tone and meaning.
I’ll take your concepts and challenges and create a clarity of communication with messaging, layout, presentation, and sensitivity to meaning that hits the heart of what you need to convey.
”I had a great experience working with Marion Metz. I was in need of fast editing services, because a few deadlines were closing in quick. Marion came to my rescue.
Her style made it easy for me to make the changes I needed to make. This meant the grammar police did not need to arm themselves with judgements, and my spelling didn’t send off any ‘stupid’ alarms.
Marion has completed three editing projects for me and I have more projects lining up for her sharp eyes and grammar skills.“
