    Some places just stay with you. Not because of the landmarks, fancy hotels or Instagrammable views. But because of the people. The energy. The weird little moments you could never have planned. And yet, these are the stories brands forget to tell. Too many businesses resort to clickbait headlines, cramming in keywords and focusing more on pleasing algorithms than people. But what people really connect with is a 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚. Your story isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s what makes people care. And when people care, they act. They book the trip, join the movement, support the cause. 𝑰 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘, 𝑰 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘. When you're in the thick of running a business, it can be hard to see the extraordinary elements of its journey. But that’s where an outside perspective comes in handy… 𝑨𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕’𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑. I started 𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝑬𝒎𝒔? because I believe meaningful results require meaningful content. Not another "Top 10" list or generic marketing pitch, but stories rooted in real adventures and alive with detail. With 15 years of branding and travel experience, I’ve had the pleasure of telling stories for brands like Marriott International’s W Hotels and the lively neighbourhood of Bloomsbury London.

    You're busy, so let's keep this quick. Here are 4 questions my clients ask: ONE: How much do you charge for copywriting and content writing? Around £400 per day, depending on your business, the writing which is needed, and the deadline. Small businesses and charities generally pay less than agencies and larger businesses. Once we have a discovery call and I learn all about your business, I'll create a bespoke proposal outlining your whole project and the exact costs. You'll know the full costs of the project before you sign the contract. The only reason the price will change is if the scope changes, but we'll discuss this if it arises. TWO: Are you available now? Sort of. Very likely, yes. I intentionally leave lots of space in my diary for quick projects, such as a page of website copy, or a couple of blogs. So, if I can squeeze in some work I will. I really get a kick out of helping people, and I get that you might need some copy fast. Depending on the exact deadline you need (AKA: how late I'll have to work in the evening or if I'm working over a weekend) I might need to include a 25% rush fee. Generally, it takes around 6- 8 weeks to complete a copywriting project like a white paper or a full website. I can be booked for these projects 2- 3 months in advance. We can discuss exact deadlines in your discovery call. THREE: Are you an experienced copywriter? Yes. I've written everything from SEO blogs to Instagram captions to Deliveroo listings. I've written white papers and website copy. I've written newsletters and emails and product descriptions. I'm pretty gosh darn confident I could write anything you wanted. I mostly write for fabulous small UK business owners, but I've also worked with digital agencies, national brands, and international businesses. My writing has even appeared in the press, and I've got a burgeoning Substack newsletter. Head to my website for examples of my writing. FOUR: What happens when a client works with a copywriter?Everyone's got their own processes, but this is how I work best. 1. We start with a discovery call, which lasts up to 30 minutes. This is where I learn exactly what you’re looking for, the deadline, and your budget. 2. I’ll write you a proposal. If you’re happy to proceed, I’ll send you a contract and an invoice for 50% of the fee. 3. It's time for you to create a super detailed brief. I can help you with this. 4. I write your first draft and send it to you. You tell me about anything which needs to be edited. 5. I edit the first draft and send draft two back to you, with the final invoice. 6. You upload the copy to your website, or send it to your email list, or post on social media, and start engaging with your customers. 7. (And, perhaps you write me a lovely testimonial too? Hey, a girl can dream!) That's it! Easy, huh? "Bonnie refined my brand voice and optimised what I wanted to say into a condensed and easy- to- read format. All my conversations with Bonnie were natural and productive. She delivered all that she promised in a timely and professional manner." I can't wait to meet you and hear all about your business.

    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

    Looking for a copywriter who goes the extra mile? Someone who only files your copy when it has been explored from every angle (UX, SEO, readability, CTAs, flow, etc.)? Can you be tempted out of hiring any of the other writers here by the promise of a 'free consultation' (i.e. quick phone chat)? Let's talk! Here's what I can do for you: 1/ Websites. If your website isn't cutting it, I'll dissect it, reimagine it, plan out a better way of coming at things and then deliver sparkling copy built with user experience, conversion and SEO in mind. This is what I do most days (please see my lovely freelance copywriter website for testimonials). 2/ Interviews. When you need a seasoned writer to speak to someone important (case studies, CEO interviews, customer stories etc.), I lean on 20+ years of experience and literally thousands of successfully completed jobs to get you what you need. I regularly put heart and soul into other kinds of work, too, such as: * Marketing emails and newsletters * Survey results/analysis/reports * Corporate copy * International copywriting (when you need a native-English copywriter) * White papers * Brochures and more. Over the years I have: * Got lost in creative work for everyone from Samsung to Cannes Lions and Harrods. * Generated meticulously planned (and written) launch copy for countless websites – large and small. * Created social media content for all the main channels. * Penned copy for technical guides, flyers, billboards, packaging and LinkedIn profiles. * Done a whole load of other stuff I can't remember right now ;) If you need a go-getting, efficient, highly skilled writer who 'gets' things quickly and doesn't faff about... drop me a line :) --- "At TITAN Containers, we've discovered a true wordsmith in Mike. I am proud to recommend him to those in need of exceptional copywriting services." Rasmus Nørgaard, Group CMO, TITAN Containers, Jan 2024 "It's rare to find someone who truly wants to help your business grow, but Mike is that exception. Full of great ideas, he has helped with amazing email and website copy." Amy Brann, founder, Synaptic Potential, July 2024 "I was picky when choosing our copywriter – I'm so glad I hit the jackpot with Mike! He gets it. Quick, self-propelled, adaptable – and super professional to work with." Ingrid Söderberg, Marketing & Growth Manager, Upsales – Jan 2024 Check this out if you found yourself here after falling down a rabbit hole and wondering what does a freelance copywriter do? .
