Copywriting

As a copywriter I’ve been hired by large multi-nationals, small boutiques, non-profit organizations, professional musicians and individual artists, each with their own concerns and unique communication styles. Adapting my writing to fit a variety of client needs is just part of the process. Some examples include:

  • Career Insider Accounting Magazine: As a staff writer for the magazine, constructing engaging profiles of accountants from all career levels and corporate specialties (see pages 25–29 for examples)
  • Commercial Institute: Updating online learning materials and creating interactive tests for continuing education classes in the real estate field
  • Concordia Community Solidarity Co-op Bookstore: Introducing vital human resources documentation into the workspace, which provided staffers a better grasp of the group’s core values and employee expectations, in addition to writing a nifty profile of the store for the MontrealPlus website
  • Hips and Curves: Seducing customers with saucy copy for this award-winning lingerie company’s e-newsletters and targeted email campaigns (click here for a sample)
  • Yellow Pages — MontrealPlus: Ghostwriting business directory profiles on tight deadlines, exponentially increasing profits for Yellow Pages clients while adhering to local YP style

I’ve also created custom work for private clients, including:

  • Artistic Biographies: Blending facts with rockstar fantasies in made-to-order bios written for a variety of artists and musicians, including Montréal photographer Dallas Curow and Ukrainian bands +\- [plus\minus] and The Role Models (click to download PDFs: +\- or Role Models)
  • Resumés and Cover Letters: Writing and editing professionally tailored resumés (CVs) and cover letters for job-seekers across a broad spectrum of industries and experience levels
