UK Copywriters Directory - Tone of Voice

  • PRO
    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 brands. 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 and UX writing services alongside AI copy rewrites and humanisation. 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 brand. Gone overboard with ChatGPT? Or maybe that free AI content bot didn’t make the cut? If you’ve ended up with loads of articles that just aren’t converting, I can help. I'm used to rewriting large volumes of AI-generated content that’s missed the mark. Whether it’s product descriptions, service pages, or blog posts, I’ll transform flat, robotic copy into clear, natural content your audience actually wants to read!

    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

You’re so damn good at what you do that you’re expanding, hiring new staff, and going after a wider customer base. That’s bloody brilliant. Only thing is, that old generic messaging just won’t do anymore. You’ve got some decent copy out there, but you’ve also got this sneaking suspicion that it’s all a bit…patchy. I get it. When you started out, you were juggling more balls than my sister at that hen do. You just needed to chuck some words up. But now you’re playing in the big leagues, you can’t get away with saying you unlock and elevate stuff anymore. You could hire a copywriter to write one thing, for one moment, in one format. Or you can build a solid brand story that will inform every marketing asset you create from here on in. Hello, I'm Leesa.

    Copywriter, author, thought leadership writer, disruptive consultant, personal branding expert, ghost-writer and journalist with almost 39 years of experience as a professional writer. I believe I am among the very best copywriters working in the UK and globally. I work mostly remotely, for clients across the world. I have written for and consulted for clients across business, charity, quangos and politics. These include Channel 4, Transport for London, Amazon, Borkowski.do, Edenspiekermann, Airbnb, Red Bull, Open Data Institute, NESTA, RatedPeople, Natwest, Arts and Humanities Research Council, Debt Hacker, Child Poverty Action Group, Freuds, Hays, ThoughtLDR, Allegory, LastMinute.com, HaMuch.com, Founders Pledge, Humanade, Vivienne Westwood and HSBC. I write to a very high standard and my work on architecture, AI, LLMs, BCorps, technology, building, construction, youth subcultures, fashion, the arts, data, health, campaigning and artists can be found in the Guardian, Sunday Times, Daily Telegraph, FT and Dwell magazine. I also write about these topics for commercial clients, taking them into tier one media with thought leadership, personal branding, ghost-written op-eds and ideas for PR campaigns. I work both remotely and in-house, taking on contracts or working ad hoc, as needed. My copywriting and consultancy work has a dedicated website at thisidea.co.uk. I have written two books for major publishers and am comfortable writing for online or for print, producing short SEO-friendly copy that will keep people reading or blogging in your brand tone of voice. I am at home generating ideas, writing charity leaflets or penning 4,000 word essays for artists' catalogues. I have also been called in to deliver corporate emails, ghost writing for CEOs and founders, site architecture, strategy, charity campaigns, bids and major copy overhauls for websites and apps. I have written financial copy and terms and conditions for online and offline business. I am known as an innovator and am often ahead of the curve, which is why I have also been asked to carry out re-brands and re-thinks for major PR agencies. I can promote your organisation via thought leadership, ghost-write for your CEO, write staff profiles and blogs, or even teach staff how to write well for your business. My work is cited in several dictionaries, is part of the Open University English syllabus and has inspired several university research projects. I also work regularly with academics and universities. I am director of a company that deals in social history and the arts, which is one of my specialisms. You can see my journalism and books at iainaitch.com. Let's set up a meeting to discuss what I can do for you. "Iain is part of a community of collaborators I deploy when I am stuck for ideas or need inspirational copy. 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." Sir Nigel Shadbolt, Executive Chair of the Open Data Institute and Principal of Jesus College, Oxford. "It’s clean its lean and it does exactly what I want it to do. You’ve brought my idea to life, beautifully. I can’t thank you enough for all your hard 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
