HELLO, I’M TOM
A FREELANCE COPYWRITER
As an experienced freelance copywriter, I’ve spent the best part of 30 years helping businesses and brands use words to tell their story, share their vision and spread their message – copywriting that engages, informs, persuades, motivates, challenges, provokes and entertains.
What do your words say about you?
WHO AM I
I’ve come up with words that have launched rockets, shaped public opinion, informed government policy, attracted global investment, protected soldiers, inspired organ donation, positioned SME’s, advanced medical research, reduced environmental footprints and fed starving children.
HOW I WRITE
I like uncomplicated. No account managers or hidden costs, and certainly no unlimited expenses. Discover how we can work together, telling your story by making the most of every word count.
ConversationGood copywriting starts with dialogue – discussing, listening, questioning and understanding to shape clear objectives and create content that truly reflects your brand.
ProposalClear pricing matters. Once I have an understanding of the project, I quote a fixed cost before starting, with 50% deposit in advance for new clients – no surprises.
DiscoverTogether with my own experience, research, insights and analysis, your answers and materials make all the difference in delivering clear copy that resonates.
ThinkingI don’t presume what went before was best. Nor do I reinvent the wheel for the sake of it. So, I invest time in research, planning, doodling and staring out of the window.
WriteI´ll create a first draft of the work, ask for your initial feedback, and, within reason, continue to refine the copy until you’re happy with the final version.
DeliverI’ll then send you the final draft in a format of your choosing, before submitting my invoice for the remainder of the fee, payable within 30 days.
WHAT I WRITE ABOUT
There are no dull subjects. Only dull writers.
From engaging websites to absorbing ESG reports, attention-grabbing adverts to persuasive product descriptions, investing in professional copywriting services, and talking to a professional copywriter will ensure compelling, tailored content that not only gets read but leaves a lasting impression.
WHY ME?
There are plenty of copywriters out there.
So, why choose me?
If you’re looking for words, on paper or screen, you could write them yourself, go to one of those freelance workhouses or experiment with AI. Alternatively, you could speak to someone who knows what they’re talking about. Of course, talent helps. But in copywriting, there’s no substitute for experience.
WHO I’VE WRITTEN FOR
From household names to those perhaps not so familiar, my words have helped businesses and brands communicate for 30 years. While most people will never have heard of me, they’ll certainly have read my words, used some of my client’s services or bought one of their products. These are just a few of the businesses and brands that have trusted me with their words.
