Website Content

Your website is the world's window to you and your most important online marketing tool. It's imperative that you get it right. It needs to be an accurate, potent distillation of who you are and what you do. Strong, clear messaging, inclusive branding, and a consistent voice are essential to ensuring its success.

Consumers are increasingly voting with their wallets, spending money on products and companies whose worldview and ethos align with their own. Communicating who you are and what you care about is an integral part of any successful marketing strategy. By creating website content to reinforce your core values and services, I'll help you craft a compelling message that reaches your audience.

Copywriting

In the past, copywriting often focused on hard-sell tactics, putting psychological or time-sensitive pressure on prospective customers to take immediate action. Today, as consumers become more educated, overloaded, and distrustful of ad campaigns, something subtler is needed. The public can smell a hard sell from a mile away, and when they do, they turn their attention to something else.

When you're hiring a copywriter, you want someone that you communicate with fluently.You need to understand each other so that they can turn the stockpot of information you present into a rich demi-glace for your audience. Whether you're creating web copy, a catalog, a press release, or any other marketing materials, finding someone who can capture your voice, place it in the right tone for the audience, and deliver a product that reaches people is what you want.

Ghostwriting

If you've got something to say and want your name behind it, but don't have the time or writing acumen to get it out, you're looking for a ghostwriter. Many busy professionals use ghostwriters to publish online content, magazine articles, business books, and memoirs. So, how does it work?

When you hire a ghostwriter, you hire someone to do the writing for you, but you're credited as the author of the work. How you convey your ideas to the writer can vary, but when it's done best, it's a highly collaborative process. The finished product portrays your thoughts and your ideas behind your name, but you get a well-written product without having to sit at a computer for countless hours. It saves you time and energy and you get to tell your story without stressing about perfecting your writing.

Journalism

Journalism is about letting others tell the story and allowing yourself to be the sinew that binds the narrative together. It's about peering into someone else's world and trying to do what justice you can in portraying it. It's hard work, but incredibly rewarding.

I started placing articles in publications while I was still in college, and continue to work in the industry as both a writer and editor. Writing for magazines and online publications has taken me to the jungles of Nicaragua and the mountaintops of Montana. Whether it's about people or place, each article provides a rich opportunity to interact, absorb, and learn about the world around us.

Editing

Every writer needs an editor; Ernest Hemingway had an editor. An extra set of eyes helps perfect messaging and eliminate errors. Even better, editing can be done relatively quickly and cost-effectively.

I've edited magazines, websites, marketing materials, and dozens of books. Some were well-written and relatively clean. Some were far from it. But each of them benefited from having someone with skill and knowledge review the text and make corrections and suggestions to refine their message and reach readers. If you're putting something out there to the world, overlooked errors are the last thing you want your audience to see.
