    You're busy, so let's keep this quick. Here are 4 questions my clients ask: ONE: How much do you charge for copywriting and content writing? Around £400 per day, depending on your business, the writing which is needed, and the deadline. Small businesses and charities generally pay less than agencies and larger businesses. Once we have a discovery call and I learn all about your business, I'll create a bespoke proposal outlining your whole project and the exact costs. You'll know the full costs of the project before you sign the contract. The only reason the price will change is if the scope changes, but we'll discuss this if it arises. TWO: Are you available now? Sort of. Very likely, yes. I intentionally leave lots of space in my diary for quick projects, such as a page of website copy, or a couple of blogs. So, if I can squeeze in some work I will. I really get a kick out of helping people, and I get that you might need some copy fast. Depending on the exact deadline you need (AKA: how late I'll have to work in the evening or if I'm working over a weekend) I might need to include a 25% rush fee. Generally, it takes around 6- 8 weeks to complete a copywriting project like a white paper or a full website. I can be booked for these projects 2- 3 months in advance. We can discuss exact deadlines in your discovery call. THREE: Are you an experienced copywriter? Yes. I've written everything from SEO blogs to Instagram captions to Deliveroo listings. I've written white papers and website copy. I've written newsletters and emails and product descriptions. I'm pretty gosh darn confident I could write anything you wanted. I mostly write for fabulous small UK business owners, but I've also worked with digital agencies, national brands, and international businesses. My writing has even appeared in the press, and I've got a burgeoning Substack newsletter. Head to my website for examples of my writing. FOUR: What happens when a client works with a copywriter?Everyone's got their own processes, but this is how I work best. 1. We start with a discovery call, which lasts up to 30 minutes. This is where I learn exactly what you’re looking for, the deadline, and your budget. 2. I’ll write you a proposal. If you’re happy to proceed, I’ll send you a contract and an invoice for 50% of the fee. 3. It's time for you to create a super detailed brief. I can help you with this. 4. I write your first draft and send it to you. You tell me about anything which needs to be edited. 5. I edit the first draft and send draft two back to you, with the final invoice. 6. You upload the copy to your website, or send it to your email list, or post on social media, and start engaging with your customers. 7. (And, perhaps you write me a lovely testimonial too? Hey, a girl can dream!) That's it! Easy, huh? "Bonnie refined my brand voice and optimised what I wanted to say into a condensed and easy- to- read format. All my conversations with Bonnie were natural and productive. She delivered all that she promised in a timely and professional manner." I can't wait to meet you and hear all about your business.

That’s why I specialise in trauma-informed, vulnerability-aware content that removes barriers, cuts support costs and improves outcomes.

    Do you hear that? That's the sound of your one daily website visitor (a drunk bloke who was actually looking for something else). But we can fix your audience woes and – I'll wager – conversion issues. Once we figure out exactly what your customers need, I'll start turning curious visitors into potential buyers. That means site-plans, wireframes, words, headers, keywords – the lot. Here's what I can do for you... 1/ Websites Your website should be one of your biggest money spinners. If it's not – dang. Let me dissect what you currently have, reimagine it, plan a better approach and then deliver hooky, punchy copy built with user experience, conversion and SEO in mind. Working on web copy for launches or relaunches is what I do most days (please see my freelance copywriter website for testimonials). 2/ Interviews When you need a seasoned writer to extract a great story from someone important — such as a time-pressed CEO or case study participant — I rely on 20+ years of experience and literally thousands of completed projects to deliver what you need. Last time I checked, AI still can't do this. 3/ Fix 'meh' AI copy Let's not pretend no one in marketing is using AI copy. If AI content is a necessity in your organisation, I can give it the shot of multivitamins it needs so it reads well, is accurate, and is rinsed of those irksome AI-isms that piss off search engines and bore the pants off readers. Human AI editing is a thing – and I can help. Check out my page on AI copy editing services for more details. Note: We don't have to go anywhere near AI if you'd prefer not to. I also offer documentable, non-infringing, 100% original copy – just as I have throughout my career. Whatever works for you. I regularly look after other kinds of work, too, such as: * Marketing emails and newsletters that generate clicks. * Survey results/analysis/reports (I'm a bit of a wizz with numbers). * Corporate copy without the corporate speak. * International copywriting (when you need a native-English copywriter for that all-important text aimed at a global market – I do this for clients in Sweden, Finland, Poland, Denmark and Japan). * White papers on almost anything. * LinkedIn and Facebook ads. * Print and digital brochures, sales PDFs, and more. Over the years, I have: * Got lost in creative work for everyone from Samsung to Cannes Lions and Harrods. * Generated meticulously planned (and written) launch copy for countless websites – large and small. I've heard what I do described as "information architect," but I'm not buying it. * Created social media content for all the main channels. * Penned copy for technical guides, flyers, billboards, packaging, and LinkedIn profiles. * Helped numerous brands to increase web traffic, conversions, and time on site. If you need a sharp, efficient, highly skilled writer who 'gets' things quickly and doesn't faff about... drop me a line. --- "We've discovered a true wordsmith in Mike. I am proud to recommend him to those in need of exceptional copywriting services." Rasmus Nørgaard, Group CMO, TITAN Containers "We needed sharp, accurate copy on a tight timeline, and Mike absolutely delivered. He grasped the brief straight away and articulated a complex framework in a way that felt both accessible and engaging." Guljeet Sahney – Head of Market Insights, Pearson Ham "I was picky when choosing our copywriter – I'm so glad I hit the jackpot with Mike! He gets it. Quick, self-propelled, adaptable – and super-professional to work with."

    Hi, I’m Lex. I’ve been helping brands find their voice and tell their stories for over 15 years. I’ve worked with businesses of all shapes and sizes doing things like defining tone of voice and training people to use it, naming products and companies, work-shopping key messages, and copywriting for all kinds of things. Recently, I’ve set the tone for a fintech start-up, helped a very popular video game company define its voice, and named a couple of boozy businesses.

    Hello, I’m Alice. I write creative copy for businesses, saving you time with words that will keep your audience engaged and get your message across clearly. Perhaps you want to update your website or need help writing articles for your company website. Maybe you’re worried you’re not finding the time to write the blog you know your website really needs. Or you’d like an extra pair of hands to review some work that’s already been done. I can help you with: • Blog posts • Articles • Web copy • Ghostwriting • Tone of voice • Proof reading and editing • Website and document reviews Why work with me? I’ll get to know you and your business - so I understand what you need and the most effective way to approach your project. I’m often a sounding board for ideas and I’m always happy to share what I’ve learnt during the decade I’ve worked in communications. My briefing process is straightforward and you’ll have the peace of mind that comes with clear terms and conditions, and a structured writing process. Most important of all, I’ll deliver your work on time and on brief. I’m based in Surrey but work with clients across the UK and beyond. If you’d like to check out my portfolio, or have an idea or project in mind (however fledgling), I’d love to hear from you (alice@alicesolaiman.com / 07738 940727). What my clients say: "Alice worked with us on our website update project, ensuring our brand tone of voice was consistent throughout. She’s able to convert often complex briefing documents into something that resonates with our audience, and is confident finding the balance between flexing the tone to meet the requirements of our team, while also ensuring it sounds like WBD! We’ve been really happy with the work Alice has done for us, and her willingness to adapt to the changing needs of such a large project and the accuracy of her work has made a real impact." Kim Turner - Senior Brand & Communications Manager, Womble Bond Dickinson (UK) LLP “I got in touch with Alice as we needed help with a recruitment project. Alice worked with us to develop landing page copy, an email and pdf flyer. As part of the brief, Alice interviewed one of our members and she quickly got up to speed with our tone of voice and understood what we needed. It was our first time working with Alice, so I was pleased that her work was high quality, she responded quickly to feedback and we were very happy with the outcome.” Ismah Dar, British Dental Association “Alice helped us with our website re-write. She understood the brief and quickly got up to speed with our new tone of voice – writing a large number of lawyer profiles and updating our sector and services pages. Alice kept us updated throughout the process and has been responsive and adaptable to our needs. It’s been a pleasure working with Alice and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services.” Deborah Fleming – Marketing & Business Development Director, Walker Morris LLP “Alice is a pleasure to work with – she understood the brief and delivered compelling and engaging copy for my boutique accounting practice supporting female-owned businesses. She was a great sounding board for ideas on what would resonate with my target audience. She always provided drafts in a very timely manner and captured the brand’s tone of voice and our purpose well. I would happily recommend her services to others.” Preesha Chhaya – Founder, Beaver & Bee Chartered Accountants “Working with Alice is an absolute pleasure. Her ability to grasp concept topics quickly and turn them into genuinely engaging and accessible copy is a rare skill – and one I value enormously. I also appreciate her creative input and her willingness to shape and push stories to become greater than the original brief. I cannot rate her highly enough.” Annie Scott – Head of Content and Communications, Schillings

    The reality: You're selling a decision. A decision to buy – or not to. And such decisions happen faster than you can think. Quite literally. You see, before your conscious mind has had the chance to process, your subconscious has already made its calculations. In fact, cognitive scientists say ~95% of our behaviour, emotion, decision-making (and more) depend on brain activity beyond our conscious awareness. 95%! In other words, we're basically running on autopilot. And using some (very) convincing post-rationalisations to justify our actions... In over 200,000 years, that's not really changed. We were (and still are) guided by behavioural principles and evolutionary instincts we're not fully aware of. The outcomes are different, yes - we're not fighting for survival anymore - but the drivers are still very much the same. They're hardwired into us. And once you know what they are (and how to tap into them) influencing behaviour becomes a whole lot easier. You can do it in person, over the phone, online, in writing - it doesn't matter. It all works the same way. And you need it. Just like every other business. Because... How are you going to generate leads... make sales... launch new products... impress investors... grow your customer base... without changing behaviour? Winning others to your way of thinking isn't a "nice-to-have". It's a must-have. Especially when you have a product or service that genuinely helps the people in your market. In the written realm, i.e. the world of copywriting, you need to convince your readers that your product or service is worth the money they're about to pay for it. And, in essence, that's all persuasion is: Highlighting how your offering benefits your reader – and agitating how bad life will be without it. Push. Pull. Push. Pull. And any copywriter – heck, *anyone* – could follow that approach... But the devil is in the details. Just stating facts is too overt. Too obvious. (Think, when was the last time you bought something, knowing you were being persuaded?) Instead, you need to be subtle. Compelling. And slip in under the radar. You need to make your readers feel like they're making this decision themselves. And that's not something just "anyone" can do. Over 75 businesses across the UK have used me to help them win their market to their way of thinking. And I've done so via websites, landing pages, sales pages, emails and social media ads. Together, we've turned hesitant window shoppers into high-paying loyal customers, who not only want to take action... but enjoy coming back for more. So, get what your business needs. Message me now. “Lewis is a great copywriter. He has worked on ads and landing pages for us, both delivering fantastic results. He is easy to work with, enjoys collaborating and is always honing his skills. Highly recommended.” -- Stephen Bavister, Director/Founder of LexisClick Growth Consultancy 5 (kinda odd) facts about me: - I like to eat kiwis with the skin on - I'm based near Ipswich, Suffolk - I graduated from Loughborough University with a degree in Automotive Materials Engineering - I'm on a mission to visit 50 countries before I'm 30 (I've visited 43 so far) - I'm a big fan of RHCP, especially John Frusciante
