    Ben

    Looking for a copywriter? Well, you’re in the right place. But where to start with over 600 copywriters and numerous agencies to choose from here on ProCopywriters? Here’s my advice … 1. Decide on your non-negotiables You may want an expert in your field. You may simply want someone who can write well and turn their hand to any subject. 2. Draw up a longlist Use the Search Directory helpfully provided by ProCopywriters to find those with the required skills and specialisms. You can also specify region: you may wish to meet someone in person; you may want someone to work in-house. 3. Whittle it down to a shortlist Read as many profiles as you can until you have five or so candidates who meet those non-negotiables. Before selecting which ones to contact, pay particular attention to: portfolios and testimonials, as well as how well written their profiles are. They should be readable and entertaining, without being overwritten or too eager to please everyone. 4. Look at websites (if you haven't done so already) 5. Set your copywriter their first all-important test: how easy are they to contact? How quickly do they get back to you? Are they friendly and approachable on the phone? As you introduce yourself and your brief, are they really listening or are they too quick to sell? Ask for specifics and evidence of expertise. Other titbits... Trust your instincts. Don’t commit too soon. There are plenty more copywriters out there if the first few aren’t the right fit. (Word of warning: you need to book the best copywriters well in advance. Get in early.) All the best with your search. I’m sure it’ll be worth it. Once you’ve found the right copywriter, you can return to whatever you love most about running your business.

    People need you - let’s not waste words. You’ve got fifty-five words to make people stay. You’ll need the exact search terms people use to look for you. That leaves about fifty words to say what you do. Using language that sounds like you and your brand. While tickling their subconscious psychological needs. Oh, and make it entertaining, too. Want some help? I’ve been writing professionally since 2016. I wrote content for personal finance blogs, then progressed into copywriting for a wide variety of clients and agencies. If you poked me with sticks, I’d probably admit a preference for working with ethical businesses and social enterprises. But I love to learn how things work, and I get a real kick from immersing myself in the fine details of different industries and disciplines. The bulk of my work this year has been for universities and HE providers, including University College London and the digital learning platform Coursera. I deliver: • Thumb-stopping website copy and article content • Extensive topic and industry research • Tone-Of-Voice Audio Recording Analysis, to help founders and entrepreneurs develop an authentic written persona Get in touch, and let’s get it written up the way you need. Email dan@magnifycopy.co.uk, or call me on 07927389370.

    I’m a tea-drinking copywriter from Hertfordshire, and winner (mostly) of the daily battle against some pretty independently-minded hair.
