Opal Blue Introduces a Professional English Refinement Service

At Opal Blue, we understand that many non-native English speakers possess excellent spoken English skills, however, when it comes to writing their thoughts down on paper, word order mistakes that could be easily missed or even excused in spoken English, become glaring errors in written material. These errors are often the difference between effective and ineffective marketing.

This is why Opal Blue now offers a professional English refinement service provided by native English speakers. We check all manners of written text from marketing material, contracts, speeches, user manuals and emails to theses and scientific papers. Every document is checked by two native English speakers and by a native Finnish speaker to ensure accuracy of the refinement.

The need for your marketing material to be linguistically correct is becoming increasingly important due to continuing globalisation. Many professionals from a wide range of organisations are coming together to conduct business in the international workplace. English is often the common language of communication and due to this ever increasing number of interactions between non-native English speakers, there is the potential for misunderstandings.

Opal Blue’s aim is to ensure you receive a consistent, high level, professional English refinement service, leaving you to concentrate on your company’s core competencies.
