Authoritative content is essential for credibility. The challenge is creating valuable assets that senior decision-makers want to read, rather than sales brochures. MSPs and cyber security companies often struggle with: • Content that is both technically accurate and commercially compelling. • A peer-to-peer tone, treating executives as equals. • Critical issues such as risk mitigation, compliance and budget justification. In short, creating these assets demands a different skillset to other marketing content. --- EXPERT-LED CONTENT FOR TECHNICAL DECISION-MAKERS Working with technology founders and B2B marketing leaders, I deliver content that supports your growth and market positioning: White Papers & Ebooks – In-depth assets designed to build immediate credibility with CIOs, CISOs and senior procurement teams. Case Studies – Commercially focused success stories that highlight your technical expertise and build trust with your prospects. Website Copy – Clear, precise messaging that differentiates your brand from the rest of the market and engages the right buyers. Ghostwriting & Thought Leadership – Authentic, well-crafted articles and LinkedIn content based on your internal insights and sector experience. --- BACKGROUND AND INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE For eight years, I’ve delivered authoritative long-form content and marketing assets for B2B technology companies across the UK. My clients range from growth-stage, founder-led businesses to FTSE-listed companies. Prior to this, I spent over two decades working directly within the technology sector for global leaders, including Accenture. With my experience, I strike the right balance between technical depth and commercial reality. --- CLIENT FEEDBACK "Rob's a real asset. He hit the CISO tone for our latest campaign and turned around a cyber resilience ebook on a tight deadline. If you need a fast, reliable writer who actually gets IT and cyber security, talk to Rob." – Abikaye Mehat, Celerity "With our clear messaging we’ve had new opportunities through both websites. And Rob saved us six months of work. He’s done an exceptional job." – Paul Rufus, Proximity "Rob's ability to blend technical expertise with clear, compelling copy is remarkable - each article struck the perfect balance between informative and persuasive." – Jesse Theron, Global Telecom Networks --- LET’S TALK ABOUT YOUR NEXT PROJECT If you have a project that needs a safe pair of hands, I’d be happy to help. The first step is a simple conversation. Email hello@robbeadle.co.uk or send me a DM to arrange a call.

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 names. I'm also the co-founder of pro-human creative agency, Haddington & Haddington. 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, design and UX writing services. 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 company's message. Get in touch with me today at emily@haddingtoncreative.com

As a Bristol-based copywriter, you won't be surprised to learn I love our legendary bookshops, balloons, and bridges. (Ok, my truest loves are the coffee shops and vegan pastries, but those aren’t alliterative.) Writing website copy and blogs and leaflets and emails and product descriptions is genuinely my dream job. I get to spend my days meeting inspirational, cool business owners. And I then get entirely lost in words for hours on end. Sure, I’m actively worsening my posture, dangerously hunched over my trusty laptop, surrounded by a cup-graveyard, but I love it. Did I mention I get to buy lush stationery as a business expense? Some. One. Pinch. Me. Anyway, back to you... If you need more visitors to your pretty website and more sales without seeming sales-y at all, I’d love to write for you. Let’s grab a coffee on Google Meet; you tell me all about your business, and I’ll tell you why the Oxford comma is a big deal. “Bonnie got our client's tone down to a T, smashed the SEO, and she was just bloody fantastic to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bonnie & hope to work together again soon" Gemma, Website Developer, London Consider your search for a copywriter done! Now you just gotta book that call.

Is your website limping along like a wounded gazelle? Let me help. We'll figure out exactly what your customers want, then I'll develop a strategy to make your website answer that very need – transforming a 'meh' site into a definitely-not-meh one in the process. That means site-plans, wireframes, words, headers, keywords – the lot. Here's what I can do for you... 1/ Websites Your website should be one of your biggest money spinners. If it's not – dang. Let me dissect what you currently have, reimagine it, plan a better approach and then deliver hooky, punchy copy built with user experience, conversion and SEO in mind. Working on web copy for launches or relaunches is what I do most days (please see my freelance copywriter website for testimonials). 2/ Interviews When you need a seasoned writer to extract a great story from someone important — such as a time-pressed CEO or case study participant — I rely on 20+ years of experience and literally thousands of completed projects to deliver what you need. Last time I checked, AI still can't do this. 3/ Fix 'meh' AI copy Let's not pretend no one in marketing is using AI copy. If AI content is a necessity in your organisation, I can give it the shot of multivitamins it needs so it reads well, is accurate, and is rinsed of those irksome AI-isms that piss off search engines and bore the pants off readers. Human AI editing is a thing – and I can help. Check out my page on AI copy editing services for more details. Note: We don't have to go anywhere near AI if you'd prefer not to. I also offer documentable, non-infringing, 100% original copy – just as I have throughout my career. Whatever works for you. I regularly look after other kinds of work, too, such as: * Marketing emails and newsletters that generate clicks. * Survey results/analysis/reports (I'm a bit of a wizz with numbers). * Corporate copy without the corporate speak. * International copywriting (when you need a native-English copywriter for that all-important text aimed at a global market – I do this for clients in Sweden, Finland, Poland, Denmark and Japan). * White papers on almost anything. * LinkedIn and Facebook ads. * Print and digital brochures, sales PDFs, 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. I've heard what I do described as "information architect," but I'm not buying it. * Created social media content for all the main channels. * Penned copy for technical guides, flyers, billboards, packaging, and LinkedIn profiles. * Helped numerous brands to increase web traffic, conversions, and time on site. If you need a sharp, efficient, highly skilled writer who 'gets' things quickly and doesn't faff about... drop me a line. --- "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 "We needed sharp, accurate copy on a tight timeline, and Mike absolutely delivered. He grasped the brief straight away and articulated a complex framework in a way that felt both accessible and engaging." Guljeet Sahney – Head of Market Insights, Pearson Ham "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 Check this out if you found yourself here after falling down a rabbit hole and wondering what does a freelance copywriter do? hello@bymikepeake.com / mike.peake@gmail.com 020 8133 4306

Specialist travel copywriter who helps brands go from invisible to visible in AI search. Unlike other professionals who have an SEO, marketing or editorial background, my entire career (15 years) has been in travel. Few people understand the industry and different customer types like I do, and this allows me to create high-impact content that surfaces your brand online. How do I help? Well, I strategize, create and optimize content that answers the very questions your potential clients are asking online. Because if there's one topic people research and ask questions about, it's travel. ❓ "What's the best tour operator for Patagonia?" ❓ "What luxury hotels have a rooftop pool in Lisbon?" ❓ "What are some less touristy places in Japan?" And in the new age of online search, you now have a real opportunity to show up in these answers when legacy search engines may never surface you. I help you get there. Who I work with: 🏨 Hotels 🌍 DMCs 🧭 Specialist tour operators 💻 OTAs 🧳 Independent travel agents 🏢 TMCs 📍 DMOs / tourist boards ✈️ Airlines ✨ Luxury travel brands I work alongside content marketing teams and specialist content agencies, as well as directly with founders at smaller businesses. My process: 1️⃣ Search data analysis: evaluating where you show up, where you don't 2️⃣ Question mapping: designing the exact questions your ideal clients are asking 3️⃣ Competitor research: seeing who's winning the queries you want 4️⃣ Content plans: plotting what to build, and in what order 5️⃣ New content writing: creating pages that read like a human wrote them 6️⃣ Existing content optimisation: fixing what you've already got 7️⃣ Ongoing monitoring: tracking visibility as competitor content evolves 8️⃣ Authority building: spreading your content beyond your website onto different channels Why me: I've worked on SEO/AEO/GEO content for big names like Expedia and Trip.com, and for small operators too. Before going into marketing, I spent 10 years selling travel. That means I know the questions your customers ask, because I used to answer them every day for decades. That's what makes the strategy work. Unlike generic AEO/GEO specialist, I'm not guessing at intent, I've lived it. Testimonials Ready to go?
