Why copy and content matter (a lot)
The right words can do so much for your business.
It can bring you more organic traffic. Inspire a customer to subscribe to your newsletter (or download your lead magnet). Or make them choose you over your competitor.
I handle the copy and content needs for large and small businesses that often don’t have the time, skill or knowledge to do it themselves.
Maybe your issue is a tired, hard-to-read website that’s stuck on page 47 of Google. Or, it could be a newsletter you know could do better, but you’re not sure how to improve it. Perhaps it’s that blog you just never have time to update.
These are all problems a professional writer can solve.

What I can do for you
Writing succinct, conversational copy and content is my speciality…
… but it’s not all I do! After decades of experience in magazines, content and copywriting, here’s what I can help you with:
- Storytelling. Well-researched feature stories with stats, expert sources and case studies.
- Copywriting. Clever copy that converts your customers and turns them into raving fans.
- Web copy. Fresh, easy-to-digest words, optimised for SEO keywords you want to rank for.
- Content marketing. Use it to attract, inform and build trust with your customers.
- Content strategy. Plan, plan, plan. Content without strategy is like chucking cash in the bin.
- Blog posts. A content strategy and SEO-optimised posts can equal traffic and loyal readers.
- Lead magnets. Your subscriber list is critical, and a bangin’ lead magnet helps you build it.
