Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:21:00 -0700 We are going to write a book! http://readcopy.posterous.com/we-are-going-to-write-a-book http://readcopy.posterous.com/we-are-going-to-write-a-book

We have just had the great idea of putting a lot of what we know about copywriting down on paper!  We are going to write a book!

You’ll hopefully be pleased to know that are going to try to focus on Content Strategy and Planning, so you will know what it is you need to write – we are quite excited about it!

We’ll let you know how we get on.

Sat, 09 Apr 2011 14:52:00 -0700 Why use freelance copywriters? http://readcopy.posterous.com/why-use-freelance-copywriters http://readcopy.posterous.com/why-use-freelance-copywriters

There are a number of reasons why an agency like ReadCopy can benefit your business; here are just some reasons why you might outsource your copywriting.

We have the time
It’s what we do!  We write fabulous words for you.  You often need to get on with more important areas of your business and know that, whatever happens, your words will be written professionally, when ready when you need them.

You’ll get a fresh perspective
We don’t get bogged down with what you have tried to do before!  We have worked in many different sectors for many different businesses giving us a wider range of experience and knowledge.
We can take a good step or two backwards and look at your project in a slightly different light.
 
Clarity, creativity and clout
This is the best bit, we have some excellent creativity techniques that we can use that means that our words and ideas are always new and fresh.
We always put ourselves in the shoes of your target market and really push ourselves to find the right words to express what you should say to them.

We write interesting, enticing and engaging copy, that is clear, concise and will get the desired action.
 
Words to fit your business
We always adapt our writing style to fit our clients, we have also worked with clients to help them understand what that style should be; so you can rest assured that our words will always fit it with your business.

Dedicated writers deliver on time
Using a freelance copywriter will save you time, and will probably save you lots of money in the long run (we certainly think we can make you more money!).
We are dedicated to writing for you and will write until we are both happy.  You will received your wonderful copy on time, everytime.

Mon, 04 Apr 2011 00:36:00 -0700 And we’re off! http://readcopy.posterous.com/and-were-off http://readcopy.posterous.com/and-were-off

We’re off!
We are taking a well deserved break and we are off to the States for a few weeks, when we get back we will be completely refreshed so we can get cracking on all that new work that is coming our way!

As we are dedicated professionals, we will not be leaving our clients in the lurch and we would just like to reassure you all that are expecting a delivery of copy in the new few weeks that we are taking the work with us, and everything will be delivered on time (some of you will not that you got your copy earlier than expected!)

We are also going to find some time to write the odd blog post or two!  Keep reading!

We have finally got around to updating our website and we now have a list of very recent clients on it; unfortunately not all clients want their names knowing, so where we can't put their names we have included the market sector they work in.
