Freelance copywriter
London, United Kingdom
I am a London-based, freelance copywriter who writes all kinds of marketing materials, from websites and brochures to mailshots and customer magazines. I also help clients develop their copy strategy and tone of voice.
With me, you don't just get a writer, you also get a strategic thinker who interrogates your brief with intelligence.
I work in two ways: either direct with clients or through a third party (graphic/web design agencies, marketing companies, PR consultancies).
After graduating with an honours degree in Business Management from Leeds University, I joined Texas Instruments in a marketing role. I then moved into PR on the agency side and subsequently went in-house to become head of public relations at the Financial Times.
I’m a member of the British Association of Communicators in Business (CiB) and 26 (a group dedicated to raising the profile of writing in business).
The kind of writing I get involved in includes:
advertorials
brochures
case studies
design guidelines
e-mail marketing campaigns
e-newsletters
design guidelines
internal communications
mailshots
tone of voice guidelines
websites
