I help corporate communicators by writing copy for their publications.
You’ve got article requests piled up on your desk and very little time to assign them. I understand. If you provide a little guidance, I can step in, take it from there and deliver you the copy you need.
I work mainly with employee communications managers in large corporations who struggle to keep employees informed about their constantly changing businesses. You are challenged by the amount of information you need to convey, its complexity and by limited staff. I can help you by writing clear, correct, and engaging copy for your print or online publications.
Do you…
… need to explain the nuances of complex products and services clearly, briefly, accurately and without jargon?
… need writing that supports your company’s strategic messages, engages your readers and requires little or no editing on your part?
… need copy that avoids language that could offend people of different cultures or sexual orientation or those with disabilities and various political opinions?
… have to get your message out to a variety of audiences with various levels of expertise all over the world?
… and your team juggle many projects with multiple deadlines, a recipe for mistakes and burnout?
…face crunch times and then slower periods, making it hard to staff up?
.
Are we a good match? Yes, if…
…You are committed to positioning your company in the most positive, accurate way.
…You put yourself in the employees’ shoes and anticipate their concerns and the information they need to do their jobs well and to manage their careers.
…You value the ability of a journalist to conduct skillful interviews, to accurately research a variety of subjects, and to zero in on the nugget of information or story that will engage the reader.
…You are an excellent manager – your know how to provide the scope of a project so a writer can run with it; yet you can step in when needed.
…You work hard, but have a sense of humor about your job.
