    Concepts and copywriting

    Full-time freelance for advertising and sales promotion of all kinds. Available on a project or daily basis.

    All media

    Advertising • consumer brochures • business brochures (product, services, capability, etc.) • sales leave-behinds • direct mail • dealer support and sales promotion • sales letters • advertorials • detailed product profiles • merchandising materials • catalogs • newsletters • FSIs • presentation kits • white papers • spec sheets • simple manuals •
    proposals • multimedia • television • radio • Web sites • other media mentioned below [to page menu]

    Strategic development

    I'm proud to have won an Effie, because it's given for marketing effectiveness. Having marketed a broad array of product and services over the years, I contribute experience, special perspective, and insights to help you maximize your market potential and examine all your options.

    Campaign development or extension

    You set the direction and do the glory work; I'll build from there. Maybe you already have one ad or commercial done already, and want me to do the others. Or, I'll take your concept into other media, being sure to take maximum advantage of each medium's special characteristics.

    Copy/contact for agencies and media

    I've dealt directly with clients since the beginning of my career, and am experienced at fact-finding, determining goals, communicating strategies, etc., with or without your presence. This isn't my standard procedure (it's nice to have the full benefit of your account service personnel), but when you're short on time or people, it often helps.

    Working the phone

    No, not sales calls. But I often use the phone to gather up the product story before writing begins. For example: canvassing retailers for testimonials. Or phoning district offices and their customers to nail down case history details.

    Temporary replacement

    Call when you're short-staffed. I've filled in at every level from creative director to junior copywriter. This helps you remain sane and fresh during peak periods, keeps you fully capable during vacation season, and lets you take all the time you need to find the right replacement for a departed staffer.

    Presentations

    Live or on-screen. Any kind of screen -- slide module, tape or multimedia.
    [to page menu]

    Creative Review

    I offer a reduced-rate, comprehensive review of your ad, brochure, direct mail package, site or other creative project (as well as
    proposals, etc.) It's an economical way to get meaningful feedback from an uninvolved writer who sees the project with fresh eyes -- as your customer sees it. I may confirm your confidence in a good creative execution (and say why), but I will also identify things that might be confusing, show how strong points could be extended, eliminate wordiness, and suggest other potential improvements. One thing I won't do is pan everything, in a crudely disguised pitch for new business; that's not what this is about. (As even some major agencies have learned the hard way, that would make no sense -- you yourself might have approved the work, and besides, I may have little idea what your real marketing objectives were until you tell me.) I'll be constructive, give you sound reasons why and possibly suggest ways to do it better. [to page menu]

    Press releases and editorial

    I write newsletters, editorial articles and press releases from time to time, usually as part of a comprehensive overall advertising/promotional project.

    Proofreading

    I'm not a "full-time proofreader," and for maximum peace of mind you should
    use one.*   But I'll double-check your galley (or finished web page or script, etc.) at no extra charge. who wants a sample with a mistake that crept in during layout or last-minute changes? Basically, you just need to send me the galley while there's still good time to for us to do something about it, have your regular proofreader(s) check it, too, and give me some samples later.

    Radio

    Yes, I know radio is covered above, but I want to give it special attention -- something radio writing gets too little of. Earlier in my career, I wrote a few thousand commercials, but I don't get to do as many as I'd like these days. If needed, I can provide finished production, demo or voice-over capability, too. whether you've already written one spot and need two more, or just want to farm it all out so you can do other stuff, you'll find me as flexible as the medium itself.
