    Conceptual copywriter. Agency to the core. I have a strong grounding in staying on brand, on brief and on time across a wide range of projects. My specialisms are B2B tech, financial services and charity. I like to dovetail with planning on campaigns to turn the strategy/messaging into effective copy through the funnel. Things that excite me: strategy documents, brand voice guidelines, great briefs, talking to product owners, working on concepts with an art director.

    Hi. Hey. Hello. Finding the right words is tricky. People pay me to play with words. Because words are important. Words can confuse. Raise a smile. Paint a picture. Cause offence, anger. Make you switch off or zone out. Stir emotion. Spark a memory. Engage. Educate. I help brands, clients and small businesses get their message across to the people that need to hear it. I add a human touch, so good ideas don’t go to waste. And in a way that doesn’t make them sound like a corporate robot. Choosing the right words is an art. But more than that, they can help you stand out from your competitors, shape relationships with your customers, even save you pennies (and pennies make pounds). ---------- Kind words... “the sort of mind that I imagine must be able to put together a 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle” Leigh is a fab writer. I was lucky enough to manage her while we were working with a large financial company. And during that time, I regularly heard about how she was a solid wordsmith. But also that she was able to absorb and somehow remember the intricacies of the industry. She has the sort of mind that I imagine must be able to put together a 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle in her head. But instead of a jigsaw, it's a thousand letters. And she's making sure they all fit together. Lewis Dowling – writer, storyteller, consultant

    Highly experienced millennial copywriter and marketing consultant. Read on if you need innovative, finely-targeted copy that works for your chosen audience! I offer all forms of copywriting services (both direct response and brand-led) as well as general marketing consultancy services, either on an ad-hoc or ongoing basis. I am happy to discuss projects in more or less any niche, and have experience of creating high-performing copy for a diverse range of industries and audiences. That said, like most professional copywriters there are a couple of industries and also demographics that I specialise in to a certain extent, due to a combination of both my own interests and extensive experience in copywriting for those niches. In terms of industries, my main area of specialism is within the private healthcare sector, most notably the cosmetic surgery and medical aesthetics field. Secondarily, I also have many years of experience and a huge portfolio of published work for clients in the veterinary and pet/pet care fields; generally pertaining to companion animals like dogs and cats, for both B2C and B2B clients. The target demographics that I find most interesting are also those that many businesses run into problems targeting and resonating with; firstly, millennials. Marketing to millennials and also the smaller, more obtuse grouping known as "xenials" (those born between around 1978 and 1983 and often described as having had an "analogue childhood and digital adulthood") are the demographic groups that I feel that I can claim the best "insider knowledge" of, and experience in targeting. Some of my most popular copywriting services include: • Website content, from landing pages to full site copy. • Blog writing. • SEO content writing for all applications. • Article writing. • Advertorials and promotional/sponsored article creation. • Composing white papers and eBooks. • Writing product descriptions and product category descriptions. • Brochure, leaflet, and poster text. • Brand naming and slogan creation. • Press release writing. • Sales emails and mailshots. So, whether you have a big idea and need a professional copywriter to make it a reality, if you just need a single sales email or blog post, or if you know that your content is failing to convert but don't know how to fix it, I can help. The results that can be achieved with good copywriting are tangible, measurable, and pay for themselves many times over. However, poorly written content or content that isn’t the right fit for your brand and its target audience will cost you clients and revenue. Don’t settle for second best. If you need help with copywriting or content writing and want to work with a responsive professional who delivers targeted, original content within your deadline, every time without fail – get in touch.

    Here’s my key selling point. My bread-and-butter skillset. I like talking to people. No jargon, no waffle – just honest-to-goodness conversations about what you have to offer your client base. It’s an invaluable skill. Because if we can convey how beneficial – even transformative – your product or service is, in plain English that packs a punch, you’re on to a winner. Here’s the issue for you, though. Few people can write that adeptly. There’s a knack to turning industry spiel into lively, sparkling copy. See, I’m terrible at all sorts of things. Drawing. Cooking. Competitive sports. False modesty. I am, however, pretty darn good at expressing myself. Give me complex information and I’ll transform it into a reader-friendly blog, or press release, or homepage, or brochure. Maybe a white paper or ebook, if we’re feeling ambitious. Unlike an AI app, I can natter with an executive and instinctively work out what readers will like about their product. With a reporter’s doggedness, I’ll sniff out the information I need, then serve it to readers in a way that holds their attention. Heck, I’ll even throw in some well-placed jokes if you like. If you’re a SaaS business or fintech firm that’s reaching out to customers, for instance, or anyone in the market for case studies, white papers or a ghostwriter, then I’m ideal. The strange part is, I’m a physics graduate. Half of me’s precise and analytical, so I’m a diligent, methodical researcher with an eye for detail. Oh, and an information sponge. The other half, meanwhile, is a bit arty, a bit creative. I mean, I wrote an acclaimed book about Orwell that readers singled out for its jaunty prose. Mix these elements together and what do you get? More sales! Those wonderful conversions you dream about! Because who wants to trudge through boring content from a wordsmith with a “that’ll do” attitude? As a writer and editor, I’ve been intimately acquainted with brevity, clarity and accuracy for three decades now. A turning point came in 2010 when I joined CNBC Business magazine in London. When I wasn’t writing features, I was rewriting our international correspondents’ articles in colloquial English. More recently, I’ve used this skill to research and write advertorial supplements, executive interviews, thought leadership pieces, case studies and news stories for Elite Business magazine. Not to mention high-profile advertorial sites for CNBC! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s yack!

    👋 Hello, I’m India, a creative and meticulous copywriter with a decade of experience in digital content creation. I help companies achieve their digital goals through compelling, on-brand content that drives results. But enough about me. Let’s talk about you. You're in the right place if you need help with:Website landing pages that engage, inform, inspire and convert. High quality SEO articles or landing pages. Brand articles that set you out as a thought-leader in your field. On-brand UX copy that guides users seamlessly through your app or website. Targeted digital PR campaigns that achieve coverage and drive results. On-brand CRM copy that enhances customer experience and speaks to your company culture. A brand-new tone of voice that encapsulates your company values and personality. There’s more detail below. But if you’ve heard enough, drop me a line to discuss your latest business needs, ideas, and big-future-plans 😌 – india.johnson12@gmail.com. Who do I work with? Over the course of my career, I’ve worked with brands and organisations across many sectors. I’ve become particularly familiar with the insurance, tax and FinTech sectors, as well as fashion and retail – but I don’t like to limit myself to a handful of spaces. I’m really versatile and enjoy the challenge of becoming an expert in new industries. Why work with me? You’ll get a highly motivated, friendly, and creative individual on your team. I’ll help you solve problems, navigate tricky briefs, and come up with killer new ideas. You won’t need to worry about whether or not I’ll ‘get’ your brand voice. I’ve been brought on as an editor for multiple large-scale copy projects (including for Net-A-Porter, Selfridges, and Pfizer) to bring copy in-line with strict tone of voice guidelines. I’ll support you through the grey-areas – briefing isn’t always straightforward and it’s not always easy to know what you want. I can guide you, helping you to clearly define your goals and figure out how to get there. 😀 What my clients say about working with me “I never thought working with a copywriter would be a silver bullet for my business, but working with India has come pretty close. She’s captured the ‘voice’ of my company and has made our marketing, content and even product that much better. She’s given the company a personality that our customers and partners have really gravitated towards. Not to mention she is an absolute joy to work with – responsive, communicative, and an overall nice person.” – J.D. Rainey, CEO, Finmo “India is fantastic to work with. She’s smart, self-motivated and knows how to get to the route of a problem. She can get to grips with a client’s business, technology, product or service by asking the right questions in order to create compelling, on-message content that really gets to the heart of what’s needed. But more than that, India doesn’t get by on just delivering what’s required. She’s not afraid to speak up, question things and drive home what she knows will deliver real value. That’s what sets India apart from most copywriters. She can really be relied on to deliver excellent copy to brief, but she can also contribute her own ideas to execute above and beyond.” – Louise Quenzer, Head of Content, Brave Bison

    'Refreshingly different from the usual twaddle.' Or so one of my agency clients tells me. Hey, I’m Laura. I’ve been writing copy and content for well over a decade, parenting a wild child for six years, and failing to tame a crazy hairstyle for a lifetime. I’m a Leeds-based freelance copywriter. Business owners, like you, hire me to write and edit words that give your business personality and make you more money. You’re great at what you do. You’ve got fab ideas, you’re a laugh to be around, and you have a killer business approach that throws shade on your competitors. But if you’re a “synergy-focussed solutions expert with a passion for customer care”, no one’s going to have a bloody clue what you’re on about. Your copy needs to be free from naff jargon, full of personality, friendly to Google, and fire up your customers to think: ‘Hey, it’s YOU I need to buy from.’ But how do you do that? Hire a freelance copywriter and content writer, like me. I’ll save you time, reduce your stress and build your business with the words that sell your stuff to the right people. Nosy at my website for other people's opinions about me and how much I charge (let's be honest, that's what you want to know, right?).

“I’ve always enjoyed writing but I didn’t set up on my own account until 2019. At that point I had been teaching for nearly two decades and had become frustrated with the academy trust to which my then school belonged. I took a plunge and set up as a freelance writer.”

Jo Watson

“I wish we were all more honest when speaking to newer or younger copywriters and telling them what to expect in their career. It’s a hard job, it’s constantly evolving, and it’s still nowhere near as widely respected (as both an art and a science) as it should be.”

Abby King

“Let your work breathe. While it’s tempting to send over to the client once a piece is ready, I try to give it at least 24 hours (where time allows!) before I go back in, review and send.”

Sophie Lain

“My manager at graze told me to think about every meeting as money, so an hour’s meeting with five people is five hours of company money. Is it worth it?”
