    I'm Jess, a professional writer and editor with over 15 years' experience, and a provider of flawless copy in good journalistic style. I'm particularly good at writing about complex business models and technology in layman's terms. I've been told: “You're the only journalist who's written about our product and actually grasped what it's all about.” I've also heard: “You have a gift for writing about boring stuff and making it sound interesting.” Writing is what I do. For nine years I was features editor on the B2B bus and coach magazine routeone, and then editor of its sister magazine Group Tourism & Travel, visiting and writing about businesses from all sorts of angles – tight-knit family links, clever innovations, business longevity – always with the intention of showcasing to other business leaders how they could adopt bits of best practice. Since those days I’ve turned my hand to freelance B2B copywriting, quickly becoming an expert in topics from eCommerce and manufacturing to lead generation and account-based marketing. My focus is always on my client’s USPs, and what makes their business such a great choice for its customers. If you want truly outstanding copy that highlights what only you as a business can do - and for a great rate - drop me an email: jessamy.chapman@outlook.com

    I'm a freelance copywriter on a mission to make pensions, investment and finance more interesting and engaging for ordinary people. Hire me to write clear, compelling plain English content that helps people understand more about pensions, investment and finance in general, and make better decisions about their lives. I spent 19 years as a copywriter with the Aon UK Communication Practice. I’ve written more pension newsletters than I could shake a stick at - including summary funding statements - as well as letters, emails, websites, booklets, presentations, video scripts, business pitches and award entries. I’ve worked on a lot of highly personalised items such as benefit statements. More recently I've worked on a lot of online communications, including a website to help people plan and prepare for their retirement. My experience covers all flavours of DB and DC pensions including communications from trustee boards and employers. Here's a selection of the subjects I deal with. DC investment education Pension scams Pensions and tax GMP reconciliation and equalisation DB-to-DC change consultations Changing RPI increases to CPI In recent years I developed a set of communications for explaining liability management offers such as pension increase exchange and enhanced transfer. When I'm not writing about pensions, my interests include: singing and acting with a couple of local am-dram societies, singing in a church choir, running, swimming, skiing, sampling as many different craft beers as possible and attempting to grow fruit and vegetables with varying degrees of success.

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.

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.

I cannot rate her highly enough.” Annie Scott – Head of Content and Communications, Schillings

    Specialist travel copywriter who helps brands go from invisible to visible in AI search. Unlike other professionals who have an SEO, marketing or editorial background, my entire career (15 years) has been in travel. Few people understand the industry and different customer types like I do, and this allows me to create high-impact content that surfaces your brand online. How do I help? Well, I strategize, create and optimize content that answers the very questions your potential clients are asking online. Because if there's one topic people research and ask questions about, it's travel. ❓ "What's the best tour operator for Patagonia?" ❓ "What luxury hotels have a rooftop pool in Lisbon?" ❓ "What are some less touristy places in Japan?" And in the new age of online search, you now have a real opportunity to show up in these answers when legacy search engines may never surface you. I help you get there. Who I work with: 🏨 Hotels 🌍 DMCs 🧭 Specialist tour operators 💻 OTAs 🧳 Independent travel agents 🏢 TMCs 📍 DMOs / tourist boards ✈️ Airlines ✨ Luxury travel brands I work alongside content marketing teams and specialist content agencies, as well as directly with founders at smaller businesses. My process: 1️⃣ Search data analysis: evaluating where you show up, where you don't 2️⃣ Question mapping: designing the exact questions your ideal clients are asking 3️⃣ Competitor research: seeing who's winning the queries you want 4️⃣ Content plans: plotting what to build, and in what order 5️⃣ New content writing: creating pages that read like a human wrote them 6️⃣ Existing content optimisation: fixing what you've already got 7️⃣ Ongoing monitoring: tracking visibility as competitor content evolves 8️⃣ Authority building: spreading your content beyond your website onto different channels Why me: I've worked on SEO/AEO/GEO content for big names like Expedia and Trip.com, and for small operators too. Before going into marketing, I spent 10 years selling travel. That means I know the questions your customers ask, because I used to answer them every day for decades. That's what makes the strategy work. Unlike generic AEO/GEO specialist, I'm not guessing at intent, I've lived it. Testimonials Ready to go?

    Hi, I'm a friendly, experienced copywriter based in Glasgow. I’ve got over six years of experience creating content that makes people want to buy services, experiences and products. Writing should have personality and that’s what I can bring to your brand. I'll always avoid waffle and write clear, understandable, interesting content that gets your audience engaged. SEO always comes as standard but there’s no writing for the ‘bots here. Some things I've written words for include webpages, e-newsletters, social media, blogs, marketing campaigns, brochures, advertorials, direct mail pieces, press releases, product descriptions, leaflets, point-of-sale and toilet seat lids … thankfully the last one didn’t go down the pan! I’ll put the love and care that you would expect into creating great content for you to get people looking, talking and most importantly, buying.
