Your business needs relevant, useful, engaging content to thrive. Today’s customers reward companies that treat them with respect. That means teaching, informing, and entertaining them with content that improves their lives in some measurable way. Content marketing isn’t about pitching. It’s about delivering valuable information to your audience that encourages them to give you their business.
I provide the following content services, and will create pieces that complement and support your business goals.
Blogs & Web Content – starting at $75 for up to 400 words*
A blog is a fantastic tool for delivering useful, engaging content written in a conversational style your customers will love.

Web content influences how people perceive your business. Done well, it instills trust and generates excitement around your brand. It encourages those who visit your website to see you as an expert and convinces them to give your their business.

A white paper educates your reader. It uses a logical, easy-to-follow argument to position your product or service as the best solution for the problem detailed in the content.
