Introductions! My new business direction: Writing scripts for training/education videos, some commercial work, too. Looking for creative directors and others in the biz who want to add a writer to their roster.
This sounds funny to say on a Biznik site but I've been asked to develop a workshop/workbook designed to teach non-writers how to craft their own bio and/or profile for online social networking sites. Would love to get feedback on this wild and crazy notion...
To that end...Do you want to become a better business writer? I can help. Ask me about 1:1 coaching or group training sessions. Mine is a process-oriented approach: We'll work with samples of your writing, and I'll teach you how to communicate more effectively. Homework? Of course -- but assignments will relate to the work you are already doing, not something "just for class."
I would also like to work with:
Solo-preneuers who need a "Bionic Bio" -- a personality profile that reads like a conversation between friends. Bionic Bios are a great leave-behind, and are perfect for the "About You" page on your website. I want to tell Portland business stories, one person at a time...
Savvy clients-to-be who know authored articles, advertorials, and case studies are the best way to promote themselves on the Internet, and improve their rankings on search engines...but are too busy to write. I offer a Stealth Writing Service where I will interview you and write the article for you. You get the byline, the kudos, the hits. And your secret's safe with me. Your ideas + my words = your success.
Independent business owners who need a "personal press kit." This nifty product is all about YOU and how you help YOUR customers succeed. It's detailed, personalized, and ultra-useful: A personal press kit is a great leave-behind. You can use it at networking meetings. You can post the content on your online profile. The custom bio and fact sheet can be used on your website. If you are a public speaker, the content can be part of your speaker packet.
I'd love to meet and talk with business owners and fellow Biznik-ites who need catalog writing in the health, fitness, clothes, shoes, and home improvement industry. Extra points (lunch on me) if you are or can introduce me to the people who produce these gems.
