More ‘marketing action’ for your business

"Gill always goes the extra mile and never settles for anything that is average. We are a demanding professional firm of accountants and a leader within our field, but within a few articles Gill has instantly improved some of the key areas of our website.

She not only meets the brief but always exceeds it. I have never met or worked with anyone more professional and easy to get on with. Gill is a pleasure to work with, I have been delighted with her copywriting skills and I would be more than happy for people to contact me for a referral."

Copywriting Services

 

As well as providing marketing support services, I am also an experienced copywriter. This enables me to provide an extra level of service which many other marketing companies or freelancers cannot -  and ensures that any marketing messages we agree can easily be translated into engaging and effective copy, without the need to brief a separate copywriter.

 

I have many years of experience in writing copy for different industry sectors, covering a wide range of marketing materials, including:

 

 

If you would like to see samples of particular types of work, please email me and I’ll be happy to send you some appropriate examples.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Website copy

When creating or updating websites, as I often find that my clients simply don't know where to begin - because most of the information they want to include only exists in someone's brain or in many other random locations! If this sounds familiar, don't worry. I'm happy to work from conversations we have, supported by any existing materials you can find, to gather the information I need in order to write the copy.

 

The other thing to bear in mind with websites is that you have to balance the readability of the site with the requirement for Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), if this is relevant for your business. Using my marketing skills, I can help you to decide what’s most important and then write the copy accordingly.

 

Editing Services

If you have a first draft already, however rough, I can take this and ‘tidy it up’ to create the finished piece - sorting out things like spelling, grammar, sentence construction, consistency and so on. In many cases this is how work is managed, as new materials are often amalgamations of previous documents or extra information gathered from various sources! To show you how this works, I’m always happy to edit a sample piece for you - around a side of A4 max - so that I can demonstrate the ‘before and after’.

 

 

 

GHOST WRITING

I also offer a ‘ghost writing’ service - for example if you have been asked to write an article for a trade magazine and know what you want to say, but not how to say it!

 

In this situation I can interview you and then write the piece as if you wrote it. Bearing in mind that timescales can be quite short for these types of opportunity - so would generally recommend arranging a telephone interview to speed the process up.
