Some of Our Content & Writing Testimonials

Copy That Was a Perfect Fit

I’m a web designer/developer and had recently lost my copy writer when I connected with Nancy Burgess. It was perfect timing as I had a client website project in the works and was in need of writing services. With her combined marketing, SEO and writing abilities, as well as her enthusiasm to work with my client to understand their business, she penned copy that was a perfect fit. She is diligent and provided the finished copy in a very timely manner. If you need someone who understands marketing, has fabulous writing skills, and a deep understanding of organic SEO, then Nancy is the one you want to call!

We truly appreciate the support and look forward to continuing our work together.

Engaging Content

“I always appreciate Nancy’s willingness to dig into a topic, take the time to gain a full appreciation of the issues, and then create engaging content. Nancy was an integral part of our brand consultancy and clients highly valued her contributions.”

Mark Stinson, Stinson Brand Innovations

Wrote SEO-Optimized Content for My Website

“Nancy helped me to articulate my consultancy’s brand messaging, value and unique identity. She evolved my brand identity with a new, distinctive logo and tagline. My stationery, business cards and templates now reflect my brand value. For my website, she outlined my site architecture, chose imagery, wrote the content, and optimized the site. I now feel proud to showcase my brand and my company’s value to the healthcare marketplace. I obtained “downtown” agency quality without extravagant agency fees.”

Nancy Hedlund, MedNavigate

Strong Writer & Strategic Thinker

“Nancy is a strong writer and strategic thinker who always strives to do what’s best for the client and for the company. She loves learning new skills and masters them quickly. Nancy is trustworthy, ethical, and works collaboratively with others.”

Marita Gomez, Marketing Communications Agency

Wrote Elegant & Fresh Content for Our Website

“Nancy took hold of an OK website and made it more elegant and user friendly. Within a month my hits and views increased. Nancy is always available to talk or meet. She gives a most impressive presentation that analyzes your company and gives steps needed to increase rankings. She is worth every dime I paid. My increase in traffic has paid for her already.”

Dan Podgorny, Kids Kustom Parties

Created Content in the Best Version of "My Voice"

“Nancy has a unique balance of all the qualities you would look for in a marketer. She’s not only enthusiastic and creative, but knowledgeable about her industry and determined to help you get your project finished on a deadline. Nancy helped me created a direct mail project for an independent senior living facility in our area. She developed the overall plan and led me though step-by-step to make our idea a reality. She really listened to the message I was trying to portray and was able to create content for my mailer in the best version of “my voice” possible. In marketing it’s rare to find someone who can balance the old with the new (e.g. direct mail and digital). Nancy really does it all and you won’t be disappointed!”

Daniellah Salario, Assisting Hands

Three Ways to Get Your Written Content

We offer three ways for you to work with us. Which do you prefer? We can:

Edit the copy you write, applying SEO, branding, and grammatical checks.

Research and write content for you, applying substantial research and writing experience.

Interview you as the subject matter expert, organizing and creating your content.

Why Words Matter to Robots

The robots that crawl the internet can read code and words. They can’t read images. Search engines, such as Google, need to understand what your business is about. Words do that.

Why Words Matter to Humans

Words are powerful. They allow your prospects and customers to understand why they should choose you.

Why You May Want to Consider Us

We have extensive writing experience.

Back in the heyday of offline publications, we wrote for such well-known publications as the Chicago Tribune, Family Circle Magazine, Healthy Kids, and Modern Maturity (the AARP’s publication).

Not only did we rise to the top of the editor’s slush pile (they accepted 3 in 30,000 a year, or 0.01%), but we learned how to pitch ideas to editors and news media.

We also wrote brochures, direct marketing pieces, scientific articles, and more.

Beginning in the late ’90s, we expanded to news releases, sales materials, and websites. Email marketing, blogging, and brand messaging soon followed.

With nearly two decades of corporate and agency experiences, we’ve got this.
