Firmwide Language Audits: Self-scouting for business

English Language Strategy

  • Brand Reputation

    A poorly worded website can turn off potential clients and investors in an instant. We get to work immediately on enhancing your website, social media and B2C communications, as well as arming your key staff with language QA tools to support them in their day-to-day operations.

  • Native Voice

    Our high-value editing service lets you identify and focus on the areas of your business where a local flair can make a tangible difference to your product sales, stakeholder engagement and profits. A clear, native voice also generates trust among the UK and American investment community.

  • Risk Prevention

    Entrusting a third party with your contracts, financial reports and technical documentation can expose your company to legal, financial and reputational risk. Working with you day to day allows us to acquire a thorough understanding of your business and to instantly follow up any issues to ensure 100% clarity.
