I do words. On the page. On the screen. And in person. I call myself a writer and communication skills specialist. Which means I talk about and teach people how to be better at writing and talking. Easy stuff we learnt as kids but sometimes doubt we're any good at. Or have forgotten what we learnt because it was yonks ago. Currently looking for public speaking opportunities.

I'm an experienced Senior Copywriter. You'll find me at www.seanluckettcreative.com/, or squirrelling away at numerous agencies across the UK. I turn my hand quickly and effectively to any type of copy and work on everything from branding exercises and sales emails to product naming to tone of voice, SEO, annual reports and website copy. Whatever the size of your business I can help. I currently write for Volvo, English Heritage, Diageo, Pets At Home, and GWR, and recently completed a large web project for Greene King. In the past I've crafted copy for MasterCard, Rolls Royce, Unicef, Microsoft, SKY, Royal Mail, BT, Virgin, Sainsburys, Aldi, AXA, Zurich, UEFA, The FA, Silverstone, RTL Group, Capital One, Morrisons, Shell, Johnson & Johnson, Starbucks, Turkish Airlines, Avis, Lloyds, RBS, Bacardi, Bulmers, BUPA, TNT, Hilton Hotels, Hotel Du Vin, Malmaison, De Vere Hotels, University of the West of England, University of Edinburgh, University of West London, University of Strathclyde, University of Greenwich, and many others. I've also worked for the Environment Agency as part of the team that wrote the London 2012 Olympics legacy document for the Department of Culture, Media and Sport. I'm also a dab hand at helping small and growing businesses get their message across. So, whatever your audience, you can rely on me to work with you to create meaningful communication that fits your exact needs. Before copywriting I was a broadcast journalist with experience at a number of radio stations. I then worked in market research with clients including Levi's, Britvic and Danone, before completing a Masters in Scriptwriting. I have since written a number of novels and documentary, film, radio and television scripts.

I get it...the brief, the deadline and the expectations. And, more importantly I'll get it done, quickly, without a fuss, on time and with effort. However, if you would like a more formal description...I have strategic marketing communications and copywriting expertise across public and private sectors in both B2B and B2C campaign planning, delivery and evaluation. I have extensive experience in copywriting, PR, media relations, crisis management, running a busy and varied portfolio of clients including integrated, on and off line campaigns covering home interiors, leisure and entertainment, property and regeneration, industrial metal and waste recycling, innovation, tech and retail. This includes an aptitude for identifying key messages, defining target audiences, analysing, writing, editing and presenting complex information for diverse audiences.

As well as being a freelance copywriter with nearly 30 years' experience (I'm not that old, I just started young), I'm also Content Director at Executive Influence (EI). Our mission is simple: to help B2B brands win business, acquire talent, and attract investors by making more of the often overlooked knowledge, expertise, and opinion that sits in their leadership teams. We do this by creating high-quality executive content that supports their strategic goals, inspires trust, establishes authority, and influences the decision-makers they want to reach. The result? More visibility, more connections, more opportunities, and, ultimately, more business. It’s how we helped one MD capture a £2m opportunity that led to a £20m one. It’s how we helped one CEO achieve a 33:1 ROI with a targeted piece of content. And it’s how we helped one Marketing Director hit 500+ whitepaper downloads by senior leaders in his industry – and, in the process, generate close to £150k of revenue (and counting). If these aren't compelling reasons to invest in executive content, what are? 20 YEARS AT WRITERS Before setting up Executive Influence, I co-founded Writers in 2001 to help businesses and brands in the UK and around the world tell their stories, bring their ideas to life, and get their messages across. With 27 years' full-time writing experience, I'm quick on the uptake, whatever the subject or comms objectives of the brief. I love bringing dry, dusty, or technical subjects to life, which may explain why I write a lot for technology companies, and financial and professional services firms. AWARDS If 'award-winning' is important to you, I've made it into the D&AD Annual a few times and won a Transform award for 'Best use of copy style/tone'. Though, to be honest, I've always put effectiveness before industry accolades. More importantly, I've had lots of clients say nice things about the words I've written for them (gushing testimonials available on request). Once, I even had a boardroom spontaneously applaud after reading my articulation of their brand (also available on request). Brands I’ve worked with include Aldi, Astra Zeneca, Bacardi, Ciena, English Heritage, Environment Agency, Goldsmiths, Kings College London, MasterCard, NIG, Reckitt Benckiser, Reuters News Agency, Rolls-Royce, Thales, Thomson Reuters, Triodos Bank, Vodafone and Worldpay. BRAND WRITING I can also help brands articulate who they are, what they do, and why they're special by developing value propositions, messaging frameworks, style guidelines, and tones of voice. In fact, I've created new tones of voice for folk like the Natural History Museum, global US law firm Latham & Watkins, TNT International, City University London, Hotel du Vin and Malmaison. So their values as an organisation come through strongly in their comms. PROJECT MANAGEMENT I’m an experienced project manager and have run writing teams on large-scale and short-notice projects for outfits like Vodafone Group Enterprise, the BBC, Triodos Bank, Cable & Wireless Worldwide (now part of Vodafone) and the University of West London. QUALIFICATIONS I have a degree in linguistics and have completed Marketing Week's Mini MBA in Marketing taught by Professor Mark Ritson. It covers the same core marketing modules as leading MBA programmes and has been more use to me than all my higher education combined. Anyway, enough about me. Let's talk about you. How can I help?

Are you looking for fresh, conversational copy to help your business stand out online? Then my chatty style of copywriting could be just the thing to get your website, blogs, email newsletters or social media updates noticed. Why hire me? I'm not an English grad or journalist turned copywriter. I am a trained, experienced copywriter with a varied business background - everything from construction to banking to crazy golf (I kid you not!). I also have heaps of project management experience. I love researching new subjects and seek out opportunities to learn new skills. I specialise in ‘white hat’ SEO that appeals to both search engines and potential customers. And one of my absolute favourite things is coming up with creative marketing ideas, and adding more value to your business than just providing awesome copy. Although obviously I do that too! I have a long list of happy clients with whom I am only too happy to spend time chatting copywriting, marketing or business in general. Patience and handholding come as standard; perfect if you’re a small business or have never worked with a copywriter before. DISCLAIMER:I am currently living in Germany with my family, but as long as you're happy to chat over Zoom, I'm happy to be of service. :-)

Hello there, I'm a copywriter based in Croatia. I have a translator's background, majoring in English and German. My mother tongue is Hungarian. As a translator, I have come across many types of texts, and analyzing them and translating them into English or German made me realize that copywriting is another branch that I can be good at, which I am, mainly because: I know how to convey the message the writer of the text wants to convey, but in another language. I know how to adapt and localize the text to fit the target audience. I know how to craft a copy (web pages, brochures...) to persuade clients to buy, incorporating stories, writing in a TOV that befits the particular field of business. Having affinities toward writing poetry is also something that adds extra interest and an element of "oddity"to my copy, should such a copy need to be written. So, I started out as a translator, but am a copywriter, who has a dab hand in writing appealing copy in more than 1 language. IN 2023- I'm now a website copywriter, adding SEO to my forte. On-page SEO. I write copy in English and CRoatian, and translate from German and HUngarian.
