  • I specialise in creative copywriting designed to stop scrolling fingers in their tracks. While creating fun, engaging and eye-catching copy is my forte, as a certified copywriter I know this alone is not the be-all and end-all in today's competitive market. That is why my web copy is structured using a finely tuned SEO strategy, and any and every word I write for you is done with your tone of voice, your brand values and most importantly your customers in mind.

  • Hi. I’m Sarah Russell, an experienced freelance copywriter. If you need help finding the right words, I’m your woman. I started my business in 2011. Today, I mainly work with small and medium-sized businesses, sole traders and public sector organizations. I help new businesses get off to a flying start and I help established businesses refresh and grow. My clients love me because I take time to listen to them, get to know them and understand what they do. Many say I’ve helped them see their business in a new way. I don't specialize in any sector or medium. However, my previous work history and my personal interests mean I particularly enjoy writing for public sector organizations, charities and anything connected with the environment, children and young people and healthcare. I've also, conversely, written a lot for very technical businesses, helping them translate what they do into plain English.
