Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

Hello again, my name is Lenny Bron, and I am The Blog Proofreader. So glad to be back on Starter Story to give you an update on my business! To remind you who I am, I’m the annoying grammar police person you’ve always been tired of hearing from every time you use an ellipsis incorrectly in a Facebook post you wrote three years ago.

I content edit/copy edit/proofread the work of several clients on a regular basis. Some of this is done as a freelancer for larger companies, some of it is done for startups looking to make sure their content marketing looks clean and presentable, and some of it is done for bloggers or other content creators who want their readers to enjoy the work they put out without stopping to try and process a sentence with a missing word in it.

I’ve been able to build my business from scratch to consistently make ~$2,000 per month with zero experience in the field, no expenses, and barely any upfront costs.
