More than ‘just’ a copywriter…
I collaborate closely with you to evaluate your existing marketing assets, determine the best way to achieve your goals, and create personality-filled, conversion-focused messaging and content.
Typically, I work with clients in one or more of the following areas:
Strategy
I’m often brought in when the way forward on a project or initiative is unclear. So if you’re looking for someone to help you bring clarity to your goals and how to accomplish them, then one of my Roadmapping Sessions might be just the ticket.
We’ll book ourselves a nice long call and talk through EVERY aspect of your situation: where you are now, where you want to go, the gap between those two points, what you’ve done before, what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what would be the best ways to accomplish your goals.
The deliverable for these sessions is a short report summarizing everything we talked about, my findings and recommendations based on your feedback and my expertise, and a high-level plan on what to do next.
On the other hand, if you don’t want help with strategy, that’s fine. I can help you plan how to execute your existing strategy. And ensure thorough execution of your plans. Either way, being able to work with someone who understands strategy can be a great help as you go along.
Planning
When you’ve got a firm understanding of your broader goals and how you’re going to reach them, it’s time to outline the details of all that has to happen to get there.
The planning component of my engagements (and sometimes the planning is the engagement) includes things like:
- Outlining funnels, email campaigns, emails, or landing pages
- Collecting Voice of Customer (VoC) data via customer interviews, surveys, and/or polls
- Analyzing your VoC data, market, and research and coming up with testing hypotheses
- Determining a messaging hierarchy that all copy and content should follow
- And more…
Execution
Once the strategy is set and the plans are made – the research is done, and the VoC data is collected and analyzed – it’s time to turn all of that thinking and gathering into actual, tangible copy and content assets.
Whether we worked together to get here or not, this is where my training in conversion copywriting comes out to play. Creating rich, nuanced copy assets that get your ideal customer nodding along in their head as they convince themselves that your offering is the best solution to their problem is my original marketing superpower.
It starts with a call
No matter which of the above you need help with, the first thing for us to do is get on a discovery call to talk in broad strokes about the work that lies ahead and find out if we’re a match.
“Obility was redesigning the website and new pages were needed, including for advertising campaigns. James didn’t just write from what he knew, he researched and interviewed our company experts about each topic and went through several iterations of each page. One of my favorite aspects was the “headline party,” a list of different headlines that could be used throughout the page (or repurposed elsewhere).
With these new pages, our organic conversion rate increased dramatically, up 22% YoY, with total conversions increasing 79%! Even better were our paid advertising results, with the conversion rate up 237% and total conversions up 782%! This allowed us to scale and our pipeline is at an all-time high!”
