I can relate to the people you want to reach – and talk to them in language they understand – because I understand their business. In many ways, “their” business is my business too.
Are you a certified copywriter?
Absolutely!
(https://www.awai.com/verified/?writer=5023&auth=c98bd1)
Any business-related writing is within my scope. I understand the important thing for business writing is to communicate clearly and succinctly.
I am also a published book author.
What is your availability to travel?
I can travel and do when necessary. Most of the time, however, I am able to successfully complete projects working out of my office in Columbia, TN. That helps to keep costs down. But if travel is needed to increase the value of the end product, then I will travel where and when needed.
Fun Facts about Columbia, TN:
- Known as “the Mule Capital” of the world
- Hosts the James K. Polk Presidential Museum
No relation between the above two things … although President Polk was known for working diligently to fulfill his election promises – and mules are stubborn and tend to stick to what they decide to do.
What types of companies have you worked for?
The gamut … from mid-size shippers to the largest logistics company in the world. Being a shipper and a carrier (private fleet) – and being between the two (as a 3PL) – has allowed me to understand the importance of all aspects of logistics.
The products I have been responsible for moving include food (human and pet), chemicals (including hazardous), metals, manufactured items, electronics, household items, plastics, automotive parts, petroleum products, maintenance items, toys, oil field equipment, furniture, alcohol, etc. …
Methods of transporting the products include Truckload (Dry Van, Reefer, Flatbed, and Bulk), LTL (Regular, Reefer, and Flatbed), Parcel, Intermodal, Ocean, and Air.
Can you evaluate our website?
Yes, for content. Recommendations on upgrading or rewriting portions of it (if needed) and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) enhancements are services that may be beneficial to you.
I have standard rates that will be provided upon request.
How long does it take for you to write copy?
The time varies depending upon the scope of the project. That is something we will determine when initially reviewing the project. Once I know the project requirements, then I can provide a timeline for completion.
What happens if revisions are needed?
Revisions are included in the project schedule. They are part of the process.
Do you provide a guarantee?
Yes. I am so confident in delivering work that meets and exceeds expectations that my work comes with a money-backed guarantee! If a client is not satisfied with the final result, then the client owes nothing. (No client has ever had to use the money-backed guarantee … but it is nice to know you have it.)
