Hiring a professional freelance business writer frees you to get back to the business that pays your bills. Instead of trying to be boss, secretary, accountant, marketing director and copywriter, for your business or department,  you can concentrate on the parts of your business to which YOU bring the most value. 

 A good freelance business writer can: 

  • Capture what you want to say, in your ‘voice’.
  • See your ideas from your audience’s (non-expert) point of view.
  • Clarify your message.
  • Cast an independent eye on a project.
  • Spend ‘quality time’ with your writing project on- or off-site.
  • Become a valued part of your team whenever needed – but without all those pesky HR issues!

Marketing

If you are good at what you do it is because you spend your time doing your job, not because you spend your time writing about it.

There comes a time, however, when everyone needs some written documents: 
sales letters, proposals, reports, newsletters, advertising taglines, presentations, press releases, the all-important web-site copy... the list goes on.

Instead of working late, why not simply:

*talk about what your document is supposed to achieve, 

*supply the necessary details, unpolished, and in return,

*receive a polished draft to approve or change? 

In the meantime, you can get on with doing your real job.

Editing

Even great writers need a little help sometimes, and not just for proof-reading.

Having your work edited can catch embarrassing errors and so much more. 

An outside editor's perspective can help:

*improve the structure of your story,

*provide a fresh,  client's-eye view of your message,

*catch those places where you have assumed your customer knows as much as you, the expert know.

Design

Ready to go from photocopies to something a little more slick? 

For your high-end design projects, I work with a network of graphic arts professionals who can create just the right look for your needs.

For newsletters,  letters and other more basic needs,  
my own experience in publishing, marketing and newspapers brings polish and professionalism to the layout of your documents.

 

Grants

A professional grant-writer can help identify your proposal's strengths and weaknesses, during the grant-writing process. Then, when you receive funding, you will be even better prepared to launch a great project.

JDWrite will provide:

*a cover letter,

*the Executive Summary,

*a clear statement of the need for your project,

*a compelling project description,

*details of your plans for evaluating your project’s success and reporting those results to the granting agency.

*an eye-catching, elegant format for the entire proposal, including budget and appendices (as necessary).

If you have identified a potential grant source, I will ensure our document meets each of the agency’s requirements, and demonstrate how your project enhances the mission of the granting agency.
