Are you struggling to find the time or the team to deliver the quality of communication you really want? Is writing or editing copy a pain when you have so many other things to do? Would you like to be able to rely on having perfect copy, exactly when you need it?
As a specialist in copywriting for drinks and hospitality businesses, I can make your life easier.
No more expensive, embarrassing re-prints. No more repeated rounds of tweaks or corrections to get what you want. No more time-consuming checks when you should be doing something else. Leaving you free to get on with other things.
Writing and editing copy is what I do. I don’t have to squeeze it in between all the other parts of my job. That means 100% of my focus is on making sure that your copy is perfect at publication and does exactly what you want it to do.
Over 25 years of sales and marketing experience in the drinks and hospitality sectors mean I understand what you’re talking about and who you’re talking to. I’ll spot niggles and opportunities that someone unfamiliar with the sector might not.
I’ve been commissioning, writing, editing and proofreading marketing copy in the drinks and hospitality business for over 25 years. As well as all that marketing experience, I’m a member of the British Guild of Beer Writers, ProCopywriters and the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading.
I’m a wine lover, a foodie, a craft beer and cocktail geek and an avid traveller. As a specialist in copywriting for drinks and hospitality, I bring passion and experience to your copy. It’s never just another project for me.
Starting from scratch.
Finding precisely the right words for your audience.
Polishing your words.
Making sure that your words achieve exactly what you want them to.
Checking for mistakes.
Making sure that no tiny errors undermine your message.
