what you do

So, who uses copywriters?

To find out if you're one of the chosen few that could use my help, read on...

• You’re a Creative Director who has in-house copywriters but either doesn’t like them, or they're just too busy, and you need to throw some extra work at me. Start throwing.

• You’re a Creative Director/Manager of an agency that does not have an in-house copywriter, but you still need to provide these services to your clients. I’m your guy.

• You have always written your own stuff, but think a more polished job might help your business. Basically, you want to sound like the big guns without spending the big sums.

• Your website is stuck in the 20th century. It needs a fresh coat of paint and a fresh coat of speak. Like a decade-long renovation project, bits have been added here and there, from various people. You want someone to give it one voice and fast. No problem.

• You’re Colonel Mustard, with the revolver, in the Billiard Room.

• Your idea of marketing is the clip-art that came with your 1997 version of Microsoft Word. Being a versatile guy, I can not only come up with the words, but also have the skills to mock up a visual concept to suit it.

• You need something written, and quite frankly, it’s driving you crazy. It could be a speech, a cover letter for a resumé, perhaps even a business proposal. I’m up for anything, with the possible exception of suicide notes and Dear John letters.

• You work for a publication of some kind and need to get your hands on a freelance writer who can turn around a story on X, Y or Z, ASAP. (Clearly it's a magazine about the alphabet.) Of course you need it yesterday and of course I can help you out.

• You don’t like the stuff you currently have. You want someone to do it better.

• You don’t have any stuff. You want some.
  
  

That pretty much covers it. If you saw yourself in one or more of those categories, it’s time to talk.
