Copywriting Update – January 2017

As we nibbled nervously on our stale mince pies, blank spreadsheets stared back, and the new diary sat silently waiting to be filled.

It was the first day back in the office after the Christmas break — the start of a whole new year.

We had a great year last year at Word Nerds. But can we do the same this year? Will the number of recommendations we receive continue? Will we continue to gain new clients?

Luckily, it didn’t take long before we were too busy to dwell and were booking in new copywriting projects and filling the diary.

We brushed away our doubts along with the leftover panettone and have begun 2017 with a bang. And I’m pleased to say that January has been a busy copywriting month.

We’ve worked with old clients, forged new business friendships and have enjoyed the variety of work that has come our way.

Here’s some of the copywriting we’ve been doing during January:

• Article writing
We’ve written well-researched and informative articles for a regular client who promotes their services to other industries.

• Proofreading and editing
We’ve read, checked and adjusted copy for companies who produce their content in-house but like us to iron out any wrinkles.

• Marketing letter copy
We’ve composed engaging marketing letters to promote the advantages of VR and AR to local schools for a Staffordshire-based IT firm.

• Blog writing
We’ve been blogging away for a construction industry client who needs regular, informative blogs to keep their website updated and their customers interested. We uploaded their blog articles to their website too and sourced relevant images for the posts.

• Landing page copy
We’ve written top-notch landing pages for a growing Staffordshire-based accountancy firm to promote their new services and to integrate into their social media strategy.

• Optimised web copy & PPC Ads 
We’ve written SEO web copy and created clickable PPC ads for a large building contractor (exciting!).

We’ve also been recommended by a previous client this month (lovely!), who had this to say about us when we worked for them last year:

“We couldn’t have asked for a better result, the copy [Laura] has written is perfect. She was on time, her terms and conditions are clear and straightforward and she’s lovely to work with. Would have no hesitation in using her again. 100% Perfect, we love the copy and can’t wait to share it. Thanks Laura!”

January has whizzed by in a whirlwind of copywriting projects and the first chapter of our new year has been fantastic.

We hope your year has got off to a great start too.
