It all starts with your brief, I’ll get under the skin of what you need: the product, the audience, the market and what outcomes you’re after. If you're not sure, we'll work through it together before I get started.

FAQs

(08)

Good to know

Answers to common questions about my process, services, and how we'll work together.

1. What do you need from me to get started on my project?

It all starts with a conversation. Tell me what you need to achieve, the product or service, who you are talking to and what has worked or not worked before. I'll ask lots of questions to get all the details I need before I get started.

2. Have you worked in my industry before?

There’s a very good chance, yes. Over the years I’ve written for fashion labels, car brands, yacht builders, FinTech startups, food companies, 3D printer makers and plenty of industrial B2B firms. But I’d always gently push back on the idea that it matters all that much. What matters is getting to know your business quickly and writing for your customers in a compelling way What matters is getting to know your business quickly and writing for your customers in a compelling way that inspires action.

3. How do you charge for copywriting?

It's normally a fixed price worked out with a day rate, which I'll give you before I start on any work. For longer projects, like joining an agency team for a few weeks or a rolling content programme, we can work out a contract fee. Either way, everything is agreed up front, so there are no surprises.

5. How quickly can you turn things around?

The short answer is: as quickly as you need it to – such is the nature of freelance. It's something I've done for years and can deliver on the tightest of deadlines. Of course, more time means the freedom for richer thinking and often more informed creative. I’ll always tell you what’s realistic before we start, and if your deadline shifts I’ll be tell you what that means for the work.

4. How many rounds of changes do I get on my copy project?

Two rounds are included in every project so you can help to refine the thinking and add any comments. If the brief changes a lot halfway through, that could become a new job rather than a tweak, and I’ll always flag that before carrying on.

6. Do you work with clients outside the UK?

Definitely yes. In fact, quite a lot of my work comes from across the Channel. I lived and worked in Amsterdam for a number of years, writing for Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Philips and a string of Dutch agencies, so I’m used to being the native English writer in a non-English team. Also, if you need someone who understands how a European brand should sound to a British or international audience, I can help.

7. Can you work with my existing agency or in-house team?

Absolutely, and I often do. I’ve spent most of my career inside agencies in the UK and Amsterdam, so I know how to slot into a team, take direction from a creative director and collaborate with designers and strategists. I can also work fully independently if that’s easier.
