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.

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.

His propensity for and knowledge of left-field ideas is a thing of wonder." Mark Borkowski, founder Borkowski PR "Over the last two years, I have enjoyed working closely and collaboratively with Iain, who is highly-adept at picking up and running with the latest ideas in AI, data, and technology. He has a knack of making the new, and the complex both interesting and accessible for a wider audience. He does this without loss of rigour, he does not 'dumb down', and produces material that finds favour with existing experts. Moreover, he is able to come up with original takes on developments in AI, data, and technology that command the media’s attention. He always adds a distinct human touch to his work, whether that be thought leadership, speech-writing, or ideas for media content, making considered arguments during the creative process and in his finished work."

Michelle Grahame, Director, Virtually Working "Iain’s creative mind is the sort one wants to handle problems. He scurries away and quietly broils up a series of marketing and public relations ideas that lesser people would only conceive with breathtaking amounts of off-label medication. I endorse Iain’s abilities, and his good sense to put them in the service of legal commerce rather than villainy." Jason Martin, CEO, Iotum

Here are some reviews from Linkedin: More about me My niches are: small businesses and the travel/tourism industry. They’re quite varied, right? 👇So here's my story in a nutshell 👇 I was originally in travel and tourism marketing, but then the Covid-19 pandemic hit. The travel industry collapsed and I had to diversify. So in March 2020, I began working with small local businesses: family-run, start-ups, sole traders, freelancers, 1 or 2-man companies, etc. I helped my small biz clients survive the "new normal". How? Well, my services—web design, copywriting and SEO—enabled them to make the switch from offline to online during the restrictions. I designed their website, wrote the content and optimised it all for search engines. This meant they could now attract new customers remotely, even if they were busy baking banana bread in their pjs during lockdown. 🦠 Weird times, hey? 🍌 Anyway. Fast-forward to 2022, life is back to normal, people are travelling again, and my travel industry clients came back. Yay! But by this point, I'd already built relationships with my small biz clients, learned new skills and developed new services. So I decided to serve both sectors. It's been over 3 years now and business is going really well 😊.

Distinction isn’t just about standing out. It’s about standing for something people can believe in. When brands live from the inside out – not just saying the right words, but proving them in everything they do – people feel it. They believe it. They trust it. It’s like baking a delicious pie – every slice, every bite, every moment should carry the same flavour. That’s how a brand becomes not just the one people notice, but the one they crave. I’m an award-winning Head of Copy & Content and shortlisted Senior Brand Strategist with more than twenty years’ experience helping global B2C, B2B and charity brands – and the NHS – find their flavour and serve it consistently, everywhere it matters. A regular freelance partner to agencies like The Gate London and Unreal Digital Group, I’m equally at home working directly with brands like bp pulse and Future First. My work has sparked rebrands and repositionings that have stood the test of time – and campaigns that have won a host of awards. Most recently, a Marketing Society Excellence Award with The Gate London team for SMARTY Mobile (VodafoneThree).
