Testimonials

I’ve been fortunate to work with Simpson Editorial Group over the last 15 years. Suzanne’s ability to deliver on our product plans while expertly navigating and solving any issues that arise has been invaluable. Her dedication and problem-solving skills have made her an indispensable asset on our shared projects, and why she is so often requested by our team members and authors.

Amie Plourde, Editorial Director, Pearson

As post-secondary textbook writers since 2001, we are delighted to highly recommend Simpson Editorial Group, led by Suzanne Simpson. We are founding co-authors of Canadian Business and the Law, which is a leading business law text adopted by business schools across Canada and now published by Top Hat.  Currently in its eighth edition (2024), our textbook has benefited from Suzanne Simpson’s developmental editing skills and insights since its fifth edition (2014).  Simpson Editorial Group is an integral part of our textbook’s ongoing success. 

The outstanding editorial oversight we received throughout the edition revision process reflected Suzanne Simpson’s sound judgment, subject matter aptitude, and ability to problem solve.   Without exception, Simpson Editorial Group was effective, responsive, and on schedule.

Over the past 15 years, Simpson Editorial Group has worked on a wide range of projects for me, in roles with both Nelson Education and Elsevier Inc. Suzanne brings great expertise to the role of content development and manages author relationships with great sensitivity. I can hand challenging projects over to Simpson Editorial Group, knowing that they will be well managed and that the authors will have a very positive experience.
