spelling police I need your help

[wjwren]

Is this correct grammar?

(I'm quoting someone on a website who is endorsing my product)




John Jones said "the service is amazing and we find the product great".
Mike Smith, deputy manager added, "since we have had the new product our productivity has increased 10"".

[dingg]

do you really mean the productivity has increased 10 inches or 10 fold?

[wjwren]

I meant 10%! doh

[groundcontrol]

Both technically correct, but lazy and stupid-sounding nonetheless.

[Galileo]

"..increased by 10%."

[marshalla]

Productivity, output, turnover or profit ? One of those would make me pay far more attention than the other three.

You're going to quote their endorsement but alter the wording?

[wjwren]

the endorsement is made up here for example purposes only.

[Kiltie]

So you're making up endorsements?

You need the grammar nazis, not the spelling police.

If the endorsement is poorly phrased then I'd want to alter it as well.
