Nail your message
when it matters most.
In those make-or-break moments where your next word could be your last chance, give your prospects reasons to buy in. Pretty pictures and slick digital can’t do that.
Only your message can.
Copywriting:
Words for the yes you want.
Command attention. Compel action. And keep your audience dialled in all the way to yes. Fill a blank page with original messaging you’ll be proud to share with the world.
Proofreading:
A green light you can trust.
Sleep easier knowing your grammar, spelling and punctuation are sound, your messaging is consistent with the style guide and files are delivered with confidence.
Copyediting:
Tight messaging for a clean delivery.
Less jargon. More punch. Faster paths to points. Human edits for human readers who’ll appreciate a clear message they can understand the first time.
French Translation:
Adaptations that feel original.
Match the English’s tone, intent, persuasiveness and emotional centre so you get the same reactions and results from your Francophone audiences.

Re:word has provided us with terrific French communications services. They have been effective in delivering timely, high-quality translations that capture the essence of the often very technical, scientific English text we provide to them. As a French speaker, it’s clear to see that Re:word puts in the time and effort required to produce excellent and accurate work, and I trust their ability to complete a wide range of translation projects.

Re:word took the time to research our offering and understand our business. Not an easy task in our space. They then managed to distill our message into simple, compelling language that moves the needle, also not an easy task in our space.

We challenged Re:word with writing a high volume of very similar content for three different sub-brands of a major Canadian airline. The content was well-researched, nuanced and catered to each brand’s audience without sounding redundant. They’re skilled, reliable, professional, responsive, receptive to feedback and a pleasure to work with.

Why not AI for the
make-or-break messaging?
Worse than forgettable messaging is similar messaging to your competitor. That’s a real possibility with AI, and a real turnoff for a captive audience — especially if your competitor gets to pitch before you.
More messaging that matters
