Excellence Media

When you sign up for our services, and depending on your specific requirements, here is a summary of professional services that we offer to assist you realize your dream of publishing quality work. We:

Assess your work for the target market
If you are writing for a commercial purpose, you certainly want to know whether your writing will pay back.

Before encountering any further expenses, we can help you find out whether your kind of writing will find a ready market. Sadly, there are many books and other published materials that are gathering dust in bookstores.

This is despite the heavy investment their authors made in publishing them. Overlooking the market evaluation stage, which most editors elsewhere do, can prove a very expensive mistake in the long run, and this is one thing that Excellence Media would be glad to help you avoid.

Advice on appropriate story angle
We know that you have conducted thorough research on your subject area. Nonetheless, some works might require major revision in order to accommodate new ideas or to give them a perspective that is most appropriate for the issues being addressed.

Excellence Media will not only assist you in finding out the most appropriate story angle, but will also help you incorporate it in your work. This guarantees that you bring to the market the most up to date reading materials and that they are presented to your audience in the most appealing way.

Edit for grammar and style
Our professional editors will keenly check your work to correct errors in grammar, spelling, language use and style. Style in this case refers to the particular ‘feel’ that comes with your unique way of writing.

Just as examiners were once students, our editors are writers first, and they therefore understand the significance you attach to your special approach to writing.

Correct representation of facts
Our editors’ mandate includes watching out for any information in your work that could lead to lawsuits, as well as for any errors that might arise from misrepresentation of facts. This will add credibility to your work.

Cleaning up the story
In some cases we as editors might be at liberty to rewrite parts of the submitted manuscripts in order to eliminate inconsistencies on your part. This is known as tightening up of wordy prose and smoothing of awkward transitions, and it is very much  part of our job in preparing your work for publishing.

Headline writing
Writing of headlines, chapter titles and captions is an art in itself with its own set of obscure rules. Basically, this involves "telling the story" in a specified way and within a limited amount of space. Readers, in most cases, make their decision on whether to read text depending on how the headings are presented. This is an area we would especially like to assist you in so as to make your work both interesting and easy to read.

Page design
We offer professional page layout and design services. This may also involve deciding which chapters, stories, photos and graphics will run on which pages and which of those will be featured most prominently for your work to have maximum impact on the reader.
