Who this editor and proofreader client log is for
This log is for freelance editors and proofreaders working with authors, students and businesses. It suits book editors, academic editors, copy editors and proofreaders working on manuscripts, theses, websites and business documents. Every client has different style choices and deadlines, and consistency is the heart of good editing. A style sheet for each project and clear records of scope and time help you deliver polished work and price fairly.
How to use your editor and proofreader client log
Use the client questionnaire, keep profiles, log projects, set rates, write briefs, track time and pitches, build style sheets, track invoices and income. Send the client questionnaire to confirm the type of edit, word count, style guide and deadline. Keep a profile for every client and log projects as they move from received to returned. Set your rates per word, page or hour. Write a project brief so the scope is agreed in writing. Build a style sheet with spellings, names and formatting choices as you work. Track time, follow pitches, send invoices and review income and expenses each year.
