This is what a recent client of mine said about working with me:
“Excellent communication, high quality product, highly recommended.”
(an actual testimony on file)
That's the plain and simple version. If you need more, read on.
I "feel your pain." You're busy. Actually, you're beyond busy. You're focused. You're exacting. You have projects that appear with a deadline of "yesterday." You don't have time for a lack of professionalism or playing "chase the dog's tail" when it comes to outsourcing. When you have a copy writing, journalism or graphic design project being outsourced, you're not interesting in being the babysitter for the project or the person who's handling it, right?
I've been providing excellent writing, editing and graphics services for a long time. I've also been a business owner. More than once. I'm a team player, and I behave like one. You won't have any communication problems when we work together, but I won't bother you with questions five days after getting the assignment that should have been addressed during our initial meeting or conversation. I understand that time wasted is money wasted; when you hand the ball off to me I know not only where to run with it but also how to run with it. And I'm not prone to fumbles!
I'm a smart "out of the box" thinker and manager. My research skills and methods are outstanding. I understand words like demographics, targeting, and audience. I understand that good writing is something that will appeal to an 80 year-old grandmother, a middle aged male construction worker and a 13 year old teenager-all at the same time. I also understand that in media you have about 3-5 seconds to get your target audiences attention. So trust me, I know my work has to be good. And it is.
My mission in working with you is this: It is my job to help you either save or make money. Hopefully both.
I only charge you once we've crossed the starting line together . Advice from me is always free! If you have general questions, are confused about what direction you should be going with your copy or graphics project, or just want some advice-it's all free from me. Always!
I'm just a phone call or an email away if you need any assistance.
