Strong brands are built one word at a time.
I’ve built brands with words across every type of media for advertising agencies, startups, and global corporations. With years of experience as a copywriter and creative director, I can hit the ground running to understand complex problems and deliver creative solutions.
Freelance copywriting services
Writing
The right words captivate and motivate hearts and minds. I love developing a brand’s voice and crafting compelling messages that turn prospects into buyers and customers into fans.
Revisions
Good marketing can suffer when feedback isn’t so great. When stakeholders have “just a few more comments,” it can derail your effectiveness and demoralize your team. Don’t let all those tweaks break your work. I turn blah revisions into better results.
Copy triage
Landing page not converting? Ads not engaging? Pitch deck not closing? Sales funnel not funneling? Let’s fix the words that aren’t working hard enough. I'll assess, edit, rewrite, and save the day.
Concepting
Brainstorming. Generating big ideas. Whatever you call it, I love doing it. From leading a session with your internal team to landing a third campaign direction that rounds out your new business pitch, I’ll deliver an adrenaline shot of thinking.
“Working with Brian was like having a second brain. His attention to detail and the quality of work his team delivered made my job easier.”
— Micheal Pepe, Director of Brand Marketing, Total Wine & More
I'm a conceptual copywriter, so I know how to execute big brand ideas across every touchpoint. I also write great content that delights and converts, but you should probably find someone else to write good-enough content much cheaper.
