You may recall a post on this blog a little while ago called “Proofreading – 3 Simple Steps to Perfection” in which I mentioned a letter I’d received from Google. It was offering £50 of free advertising with Google AdWords but they’d made a blunder:
1. You control where you ad is showing – by country, region or town
Argh! How could a company like Google make such a mistake?
Well, this morning I received another letter from them with the same offer. Guess what?
I opened the envelope with baited breath…had they heeded my words?…Had the letter been properly proofread this time?…
The answer is…YES!
The entire letter is blunder free. Well done Google!!!!!

That would annoy me too, especially on a sales pitch from a huge company. How many people read that before sending it and didn’t notice the error?
