Work With Me
The knowledge is yours. I find the words.
When you’re immersed in your business every day, it can be hard to step back and see the story someone else needs to hear. The knowledge is there—in your conversations, your experience and the work you’re proud of. Finding the words, and the time to write them, is another matter.
That’s where I come in. I work with business owners and teams to draw out what matters and give it shape on the page. From tender responses and award submissions to website copy, I bring a writer’s curiosity, a practical understanding of business and an eye for the details that make your story yours.
How I Can Help
Tender & Bid Support
Preparing a tender takes more than good writing. It requires a clear understanding of the requirements, relevant evidence and coordination of the people contributing to the response.
Drawing on ten years working on tender bids, I can help you organise the process and develop a response that explains your capabilities and addresses what the buyer is asking.
Support can include:
– Reviewing tender requirements and response criteria.
– Organising information, supporting documents and contributions.
– Writing and editing responses using your business knowledge and evidence.
– Preparing business profiles, capability statements and project examples.
– Checking the response for clarity, consistency and completeness.
I can assist with a defined part of your bid or provide broader coordination and writing support, depending on your team’s needs.
Business Award Submissions
Every business has a story, but a strong award submission needs more than a list of achievements.
It needs relevant examples that show what you’ve done, how you’ve done it and the difference it has made.
I work with you to draw out those details and shape them into a clear response to the award criteria.
Support can include:
– Working through the entry questions and judging criteria.
– Identifying achievements, milestones and supporting evidence.
– Developing your business story through conversations and existing material.
– Writing and refining responses within the required word limits.
– Reviewing the submission for consistency and a clear overall narrative.
You bring the experience and achievements.
I help you explain their significance.
Business Copywriting
Your business copy should help people understand what you do, who you work with and why your experience matters.
I write clear, purposeful content that reflects your voice and gives your audience the information they need.
Copywriting can include:
– Website pages and service descriptions.
– Business profiles and professional biographies.
– Capability statements.
– Project summaries and case studies.
– Brochures, newsletters and other marketing content.
Whether we’re starting with a conversation, a collection of notes or existing copy that needs refreshing, I’ll help bring your message together.
Writing & Editing Support
You may already have a draft but know it needs another set of eyes.
Perhaps the structure isn’t working, the message is getting lost or several contributors have left the document sounding inconsistent.
I help refine business documents so they are easier to read and communicate their purpose clearly.
Support can include:
– Restructuring content to improve flow.
– Editing for clarity, tone and consistency.
– Reducing repetition and working within word limits.
– Identifying gaps that need further information.
– Proofreading for spelling, grammar and punctuation.
This can be a standalone service or part of a larger writing project.
Working Together
We’ll start with a conversation about your project, audience and deadline. I’ll review the material you have, clarify the support you need and agree on the scope, timing and fee with you before work begins.
Throughout the project, we’ll work together to make sure the content accurately reflects your business. You’ll review the draft, provide feedback and approve the final wording.
Where a project needs additional specialist expertise, I can draw on my network of trusted professionals, with any involvement agreed with you beforehand.
