Services

Your prospects and clients are hungry for information that is pertinent to their business needs and problems. How will you feed them?

Drawing on 15 years of experience as a communications consultant and business writer for service professionals, I will help you produce powerful writing on issues, trends and topics that matter to the clients you want to serve.

I work with clients to create a custom-blend of written content for:

  • Websites
  • Blogs
  • Newsletters
  • E-books
  • Articles
  • Presentations
  • Programs

You decide how much help you want in the content production process by selecting from a service menu that includes:

  • Consulting
  • Writing
  • Editing


Consulting Services
. You will benefit from my consulting services if you want to learn what to do, and avoid doing, to craft quality, client-centric business writing. We collaborate to create a smart production strategy for delivering fresh, timely and informative content to your target audience. Once you implement the strategy, I provide you with any ongoing support you need.


Writing Services
. My writing services will benefit you if you do not have the time or inclination to write. After we discuss the nature of your project, what you want to convey to your readers and the results you envision, I do all the work for you. If the project requires it, I:

  • Review background materials
  • Communicate ideas and approaches
  • Conduct research and interviews
  • Provide two rounds of revisions*

*I charge my hourly rate for additional revisions.

The content I deliver is entirely original. It reflects my strong knowledge of the service professions and talent for producing clear, concise and compelling writing.

Some of the topics and trends that I cover for my writing clients are:

  • Business development
  • Career contentment
  • Client relations
  • Communication skills
  • Employee engagement
  • Leadership
  • Marketing trends
  • Work-life synergy


Editing Services
. If you have existing content that you want me to review, complete or reframe, you will benefit from my editing services. We team on the project to make the most of your writing skills and subject matter expertise. I evaluate your written material and suggest ways to strengthen it. You can make the suggested changes yourself or I will do it for you as directed. This is a great way to improve your writing over time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What can you expect when you work with me?

The following are answers to inquiries I commonly field from prospective clients. If you need more information or would like to hire me for a writing, consulting or editing project, please contact me.


Who do you work with?

I mainly work with service professionals, consultants and business coaches. However, I enjoy helping a variety of clients and can tailor my writing and communications consulting to suit the needs of business people across a range of industries.


Do you charge by the project or by the hour?

Most of my clients prefer to pay me by the hour. I also offer a retainer package based on my hourly rate. On request and when feasible, I quote flat fees for larger writing or consulting projects.


What are your terms?

After our initial consultation about the project’s scope and timing, I send you a letter agreement outlining my services and fees. The project commences after we both sign the agreement.


The entire retainer fee or 50%
of the total estimated (hourly) or quoted (flat) project fee is due at the time you sign the letter agreement. Each month until completion, I bill you for ongoing hourly work less a credit for your initial deposit. When I finish the first draft of your flat fee project, I send you an invoice for the balance owed. Payment is due when you receive my invoice.


I may apply a 25% rush fee for projects with a turnaround time of 48 hours or less.
