Q: Why do I need a professional business copywriter?
A: One word: continuity. Well-written, on target text acts as an instant branding vehicle. Writing free of grammar and spelling errors is just the beginning; writing also has to convey your main idea, whether it’s a featured product or service or a recent condominium opening. You get the idea. Perhaps best of all, as a professional business copywriter, the Florida BizScribe will consistently provide focused writing to make you and your business look smart and creative. Call it a great first impression – on paper.
Q: How do I know if I need press releases written about my company?
A: At this moment, do you have as many customers, and as much success, as you’ll ever want or need? Public relations techniques keep you in the forefront – and may get you on the front page. Such increased visibility leads to consumer interest. Anytime you release a new product, hire a new associate, win an industry award or do anything else notable, you should develop and disseminate a well-written press release. Journalists encounter a sea of such releases every day; the BizScribe knows the tricks to get your release noticed.
Q: What’s all this talk about “optimization,” and how can it help my business?
A: One of my business copywriting specialties is website and press release optimization, which utilizes key words and/or phrases to increase the chances of publication. In today’s digital world, computer search engines and press wires skim text for key terms. To have a better chance of their text being noticed, writers have begun incorporating these terms into press release and website copy. Through a sophisticated optimization program, I identify key words unique to each industry, and then seamlessly weave them through text.
Q: How does the BizScribe business copywriting process work?
A: I’m as flexible as an old-school Gumby toy. Let’s take it step by step. Here’s how the contracting process usually works:
STEP ONE: You contact me, and we set up an initial appointment. We can “meet” either in person or over the phone.
STEP TWO: We iron out the details of your project. BizScribe employment terms are open for interpretation; although I work on an hourly basis for most general editing and re-writing, I’ll also quote per project or work on retainer.
STEP THREE: It’s time to begin! During project and retainer situations, I supply weekly updates to clients and am available for in-person strategy meetings as well as brainstorming sessions.
Q: What about actual website coding or brochure design?
A: There’s a reason I didn’t name my company BizMarketCodeScribe. It’s a mouthful. Plus, it’s not my modus operandi. I know my strengths, and they don’t include graphics. Instead, I work with dedicated professionals to complete the entire scope of a project. Graphic artists, website designers and advertising consultants are on my speed-dial. I’ll put the entire project together for you – or I’ll work with your in-house team to develop the text you need. A quick FYI: just because your website designer can blend your company logo beautifully with a background, that doesn’t mean they should write the website text. Call me.
