In energy and B2B tech, the most innovative products are often the hardest to communicate. I help buyers understand how your solution solves business challenges. Whether I’m working with you on thought leadership content, website copy, or a case study, my strategic approach begins where your solution and customer priorities intersect. Here's how I can help you: ✅ Thought leadership content that turns your technical expertise into articles, white papers, and LinkedIn content that builds trust and recognition with buyers. ✅ Case studies that show how your solution works in the real world and the difference it’s made for your customers. ✅ Strategic Copywriting that helps buyers see why your solution is right for them in web pages, landing pages, and promotional copy. I specialise in: ✅ B2B tech & SaaS brands: Writing on topics that include IT consultancy, cybersecurity, and IT architecture. ✅ Energy sector and renewables: Writing on topics that include retail energy pricing, energy capacity markets, demand flexibility, integration (iPaaS), and grid connection backlogs. With more than eight years’ experience working with energy and B2B tech businesses, I combine strong sector knowledge with a strategic background.

'Refreshingly different from the usual twaddle.' Or so one of my agency clients tells me. Hey, I’m Laura. I’ve been writing copy and content for well over a decade, parenting a wild child for nine years, and failing to tame a crazy hairstyle for a lifetime. I’m a Leeds-based freelance copywriter. Business owners, like you, hire me to write and edit words that give your business personality and make you more money. They also hire me to run workshops and train their teams to improve their writing and feel confident creating content. My clients are great at what they do. But they need to show that with jargon-free, personality-packed copy, free from AI waffle and full of original ideas that sell their stuff to the right people. That’s where I come in. I’ve worked with some big bods, like Marriott Hotels, Netflix, Department of Health NI, and The University of Leeds, and supported SMEs, such as accountancy practices, non-profits and marketing agencies. Nosy at my website and my LinkedIn profile to find out what other people think about me and how much I charge (let's be honest, that's what you want to know, right?).

Toni-Ann Bird, Director, Guild House Property Agents, Warwickshire.

Emma Mathias, Bradshaw Taylor - the home of luxury outdoor clothing and country lifestyle brands. Why do I write for such a mix of sectors? It's not quite such a random choice as you might think. Instead, it's all about photography. Before venturing into the world of copywriting almost a decade ago, I was a freelance landscape and location photographer. Clients included the National Trust, and I specialised in photographing Britain's architecture, landscapes, gardens, and heritage locations. All things that genuinely interested me. And still do. So I decided to carry on working in these same fields - albeit very differently. In a way, I'm still creating pictures, only now I'm using words rather than a camera. With just the right words, I paint persuasive pictures to bring places, spaces, projects, and services to life. ⭐"You have a wonderful natural style ... this is excellent - thank you. Just what we were hoping for!" Jo Shaer, Lollipop - content marketing specialists for the Fire and Security sectors. I'd love the opportunity to work with you. So, for captivating, enticing, and memorable copy, please get in touch. You can head over to my website for a browse, email me from this page, or give me a call (you'll find all the links below) and tell me more about the words you're after.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by - my name is Emily Haddington and I'm a senior copywriter and UX writer with more than a decade of experience writing for small to medium companies, start-ups and household names. I'm also the co-founder of pro-human creative agency, Haddington & Haddington. Some of my clients have included HSBC, JP Morgan, Vodafone, P&G, TUI, Aquafresh, Taylor Wimpey, Microsoft, Google and Expedia. Sure, I'm a generalist - but to my mind, a good copywriter should be able to write about literally anything. I'm the co-founder of Haddington & Haddington, a Suffolk-based agency offering copywriting, design and UX writing services. I run the agency with my husband, David Haddington - an extremely talented web, digital, print and UX/UI designer. (He does a bloomin' good illustration, too). Copywriting I have a wealth of writing experience across a huge variety of sectors. Whether it's creating product descriptions for a small online start-up selling caravan upholstery, or UX copy for mortgage products for household names like HSBC, I can help with any project. Big or small, B2B or B2C. I've helped small local companies in Suffolk to sell more honey by improving their landing page copy, and I've given Marriott Hotels its key tagline for the naming of a luxury new hotel in Budapest. Whatever the copywriting challenge, I'm here to take it on! UX Writing Many copywriters say they're UX writers, but they don't have any UX background or design reputation to back it up. UX writing involves more than being able to write micro-copy for a button, or knowing your way around a wireframe. My agency is fully accredited by qualifications from the UX Design Institute, and we perform user testing and UX research alongside content design. I know the UX design process inside out - from user surveys and competitive benchmarking at the start, through to user flow analysis, affinity diagrams and customer journey mapping, and then user flows, wireframing and prototyping. I've been involved in UX writing projects for large brands such as JP Morgan/Chase, Vodafone and HSBC. AI-to-human copywriting services I’ll take your copy and strip out all the filler, AI buzzwords and jargon. What you’ll get is writing with a warmer tone, clear purpose, and a voice that truly reflects your company's message. Get in touch with me today at emily@haddingtoncreative.com

Who am I? A copywriter with a business journalist’s background. I write websites, blogs, case studies and advertorials — turning jargon-heavy subjects into copy that a reader will actually finish, and do something about. What I Do: I work out what a business really does, then explain it in plain English – whether the client is a fintech startup, a private equity firm or a franchise that installs loft ladders. Basically, I cut out the jargon and the filler. Who I’ve Worked With: I’ve written advertorials for CNBC.com, including work for the Abu Dhabi government, and entire client supplements for Elite Business and Elite Franchise – each built around one company, from executive interviews to clear, engaging explanations of what the business does and why it matters. Behind that is a long career in financial and business journalism, most notably at CNBC Business – so I’m quick to master a difficult brief. What My Clients Say: • "Like a sponge, he absorbed my website. Then with brevity and clarity, infused it with The David 'Ryanesque' Touch." - John Dearden, Manchester engraver • "Best investment for any business." - Natalia Barbour, Bureau Arcturus, Guildford Get in Touch: If you’ve a project in mind, drop me a line.

Authoritative content is essential for credibility. The challenge is creating valuable assets that senior decision-makers want to read, rather than sales brochures. MSPs and cyber security companies often struggle with: • Content that is both technically accurate and commercially compelling. • A peer-to-peer tone, treating executives as equals. • Critical issues such as risk mitigation, compliance and budget justification. In short, creating these assets demands a different skillset to other marketing content. --- EXPERT-LED CONTENT FOR TECHNICAL DECISION-MAKERS Working with technology founders and B2B marketing leaders, I deliver content that supports your growth and market positioning: White Papers & Ebooks – In-depth assets designed to build immediate credibility with CIOs, CISOs and senior procurement teams. Case Studies – Commercially focused success stories that highlight your technical expertise and build trust with your prospects. Website Copy – Clear, precise messaging that differentiates your brand from the rest of the market and engages the right buyers. Ghostwriting & Thought Leadership – Authentic, well-crafted articles and LinkedIn content based on your internal insights and sector experience. --- BACKGROUND AND INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE For eight years, I’ve delivered authoritative long-form content and marketing assets for B2B technology companies across the UK. My clients range from growth-stage, founder-led businesses to FTSE-listed companies. Prior to this, I spent over two decades working directly within the technology sector for global leaders, including Accenture. With my experience, I strike the right balance between technical depth and commercial reality. --- CLIENT FEEDBACK "Rob's a real asset. He hit the CISO tone for our latest campaign and turned around a cyber resilience ebook on a tight deadline. If you need a fast, reliable writer who actually gets IT and cyber security, talk to Rob." – Abikaye Mehat, Celerity "With our clear messaging we’ve had new opportunities through both websites. And Rob saved us six months of work. He’s done an exceptional job." – Paul Rufus, Proximity "Rob's ability to blend technical expertise with clear, compelling copy is remarkable - each article struck the perfect balance between informative and persuasive." – Jesse Theron, Global Telecom Networks --- LET’S TALK ABOUT YOUR NEXT PROJECT If you have a project that needs a safe pair of hands, I’d be happy to help. The first step is a simple conversation. Email hello@robbeadle.co.uk or send me a DM to arrange a call.

What I do: Brand voice, copywriting and strategic creativity for brands and agencies. What I really do: Help you join the conversation already happening in your customers' minds. Over 15+ years that’s meant building a cruise brand from the ground up, repositioning a global talent solutions company, unifying a group of hotels in Mexico under one luxury identity, and leading UK copy for Google's launch of Market Finder and Grow My Store.

Where I walk the walk: 🔊 Brand voice & messaging Finding and shaping a voice that's practical and oozes personality – and making sure it shows up consistently, from your smallest small print to your biggest hero campaign. 💡 Creative campaigns Pushing ideas further than “safe” allows.

Full go-to-market thinking for new brands, products and platforms entering the market.
