My client work

This section is currently under construction (like the great, and powerful Oz, I don’t really want you to look behind the curtain while I’m faffing about).

More examples of my brand copywriting for female entrepreneurs, women business owners, and brands in female spaces are coming soon, along with case studies about my collaborations with disruptive dames like you.

In the meantime, here’s a small, but perfectly formed selection. If you’d like to see more, or something more specific, like sample brand messaging, or tone of voice guidelines, please get in touch.

WEBSITE COPYWRITING, WEB COPY EDITING, AND WEB COPY AUDITS

My website copywriting services are designed for cunning women business owners to get clear with their brand messaging, craft a distinctive brand voice that takes them from generic, to memorable, and articulate their offer to the right audience. Let’s not mince, or waste our words. Laser focused, SEO optimised web copy is essential for a hard-working website. Anything else is offal.

LinkedIn Summaries

My LinkedIn summary writing packages are thoughtfully designed for disruptive dames, who are ready to dominate the world’s largest social networking platform for business. From a DIY guide, to a done for you service that brings you a significantly better bio section with only two hours’ commitment, there’s a package to suit all budgets.

LinkedIn is packed full of coaches for this, and that. So here, it was important to stand out from the clamour of the crowd.

Copywriting for print media

As a copywriter who offers copywriting for print media, I firmly believe that the printed word isn’t dying out. Print copy is alive, and kicking, and another string to your marketing bow.

Product descriptions and packaging copy

I offer copywriting for product descriptions and packaging copy that sells the sizzle, not the sausage, showing clients the many benefits of your product. Packed with personality, copy for products and packaging definitely doesn’t have to be boring. Think Innocent Smoothies, or Oatly, both brands who understand that even the smallest snippet of copy can make a huge impact.
