So, you’re ready to invest in the big guns for your creative strategy? Hello, I'm Liam 👋 Creative Strategist and Direct Response Copywriter trusted by 8 to 9 figure DTC brands. You might know a few of them: • Resilia • Lymphoria • SPNutrition • Seranova • Shiny Smile Veneers • Goat Funded Trader • Built With Science+ (Jeremy Ethier - 7M+ subscribers on YouTube) I'm a part of Genesis, an invite-only mastermind run by the copywriters actively scaling the world's top 8 & 9 figure brands. Which means you get the latest strategies, AI methods, and insider knowledge applied directly to YOUR business. Here's what that looks like: ✅ Drove $1M+ in total ad spend within a 90-day window for a supplement brand, producing 15 breakthrough creatives, three of which individually crushed $300k, $250k, and $200k in spend ✅ Produced winning creatives for an 8-Figure beauty brand contributing to $4M+ in revenue with three ads hitting $267k, $265k and $104k in individual ad spend ✅ Generated $3M+ in tracked revenue for an 8-Figure skincare brand through Meta ads ✅ Scaled a 7-Figure accessories brand with one ad hitting $100k in spend and $600k+ in combined ad spend across multiple winning creatives ✅ Consistently averaged a 12.69 ROAS for an 8-Figure prop firm, generating $175k+ in tracked revenue from $13,825 in monthly ad spend across 39 live ads Here's what I can help you with: 📽️ Ad Scripts & VSLs → Stop the scroll, hook the viewer, make the sale 📃 Sales Pages, Landing Pages & PDPs → Turn traffic into customers at scale 📰 Advertorials, Listicles & Quiz Funnels → Pre-sell prospects before they reach your offer So, what's the secret behind copy that converts? Before I write a single word, I conduct deep research to understand: ➡️ Where your prospects are in their buying journey ➡️ The specific struggles keeping them from their goals ➡️ What emotionally triggers them to purchase ➡️ Why existing solutions fail to deliver ➡️ The unique mechanism behind why your solution works when others don't From this research, I develop a creative strategy and messaging position that sets you apart from every competitor in your market, powered by my Buyer Messaging Method™, copy that captures exactly how your customers think, speak, and buy. Now, most copywriters on Upwork? They hand over a Google Doc, collect their payment, and *poof!* — vanish into thin air. But here's what I've learned working with 7-8 figure brands. The copy that actually SCALES your business doesn't come from a one-off project. It comes from someone who's IN THE TRENCHES with you, who understands your customer better than your competitors do, and who's obsessed with making your numbers go UP 🚀 That's what real partnership looks like. Which is why I only work with a few brands at a time and I'm very selective about who I bring on. We won't be a good fit if: ❌ You're working with a tight budget that doesn't match the level of work you need ❌ You think prompting AI is the same as hiring a creative strategist who lives and breathes this stuff ❌ You take days to respond to messages or ghost mid-project ❌ You're an agency, I work directly with brand owners only If that's you, please don't reach out. But if you're serious about your brand and want someone who treats your business like their own, someone who's invested thousands in world-class mentorship to scale your brand? Let's talk. Message me with the following: 1. Your brand details and website 2. What type of copy you need 3. Your current biggest challenge with conversions – Liam

Growing, rebuilding, or launching a Shopify brand? I help ecommerce and DTC founders improve the system behind revenue, from premium Shopify experiences and conversion optimization to paid acquisition, tracking, creative, and retention. My role is not to sell you disconnected services. It is to identify the highest-leverage problem first, then execute the right solution. A store can look great and still underperform. Ads can generate traffic and still fail to produce profitable growth. A promising product can fail because the offer, page, tracking, creative, or acquisition strategy was weak. That is why I look at the ecommerce business as one connected system. 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐏 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 • Shopify design, development, redesigns, and ecommerce builds • Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) • Product pages, landing pages, mobile UX, and customer journeys • AOV improvement, bundles, upsells, and checkout optimization • Meta and Google Ads strategy and management • Google Analytics, GA4, GTM, Meta Pixel, CAPI, and conversion tracking • Klaviyo flows, email marketing, and retention • Creative strategy and AI-powered advertising creative • Ecommerce launch strategy and product validation • Product research, market research, positioning, and pricing 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐄𝐗𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐂𝐄 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐒 If you are already generating traffic or sales, I help determine whether the real bottleneck is: • The offer • The Shopify experience • Product or landing pages • Paid acquisition • Creative • Tracking and attribution • AOV • Email retention The goal is to avoid fixing the wrong variable. A website redesign will not solve a weak offer. More ad spend will not fix a poor conversion path. Better creative cannot compensate for unreliable tracking. I prioritize what is most likely to improve the business first, what can wait, and what is not worth paying for yet. 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐂𝐄 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐒 A promising product deserves a fair market test. I help founders determine what should be validated, built, and tested before unnecessary capital is committed to inventory, technology, creative, or advertising. This can include product and market research, positioning, pricing, supplier economics, Shopify, tracking, launch funnels, acquisition, and retention. The objective is not simply to launch. It is to create a credible test that tells you whether the opportunity deserves further investment. 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐆𝐘. 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐌. Instead of hiring disconnected Shopify developers, designers, CRO specialists, media buyers, and email marketers working from different assumptions, I connect strategy and execution around the same commercial objective. Not every project requires every service. Sometimes the right engagement is a focused Shopify build, CRO project, advertising audit, or paid media engagement. Other times the business needs broader ecommerce direction and ongoing execution. 𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐌𝐄 • Top Rated Plus • 100% Job Success • 160+ completed Upwork projects • Strategy supported by specialized execution • Experience across fashion, wellness, supplements, beauty, and consumer products • One partner connecting Shopify, CRO, acquisition, tracking, creative, and retention 𝐁𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐓 I work best with founders and ecommerce teams that have a real product, realistic growth or launch capital, and want someone who can think beyond a single isolated task. If you already have a store, send me your current bottleneck and what you are trying to improve. If you are launching, send me your product, market, current stage, and expected launch timeline. I will help determine what should happen first.

Hi, I'm Rob. After a diverse academic and professional career, I’ve learned, practiced, and mastered the art of conversion or “direct response” copywriting. I specialize in writing copy for high-converting landing pages, website home pages, product detail pages, and advertorials. I’ve lost count of the exact number I’ve written. Check out some of the best ones at the bottom of this profile – or reach out to look at my full portfolio. My current main gig is with ConversionWise, one of the world’s top design and CRO agencies. This is what they say about me: “Working with Rob on direct response copywriting projects is such a refreshing experience. He is able to take quite limited briefs and transform clients' pages and core messaging from being dull and underperforming to creating captivating headlines, engaging content - ultimately leading to an increase in our clients' conversion rates.” - Alex Berresford, Head of Client Success, ConversionWise So, how can I help you? 💡 If you’re running any kind of business, chances are your conversions happen when prospects arrive on your website, landing page, sales page, or product page. Yet, for many businesses, this is the leakiest and least-polished part of the funnel. You’ve got killer ads and massive engagement on socials. So if you build a nice-looking page, conversions are guaranteed, right? Wrong. This is the point where many prospects waver, delay, and ultimately don’t take the action you want them to. Why? It usually comes down to two things: ❌ Bad or confusing copywriting: It’s unclear, unconvincing, or lacks credibility. The headline doesn’t connect to your ads. The CTA is weak. It’s all features and no benefits, or leaves your prospects’ burning questions unanswered. ❌ Bad design or UX. Customers may want to take action, but they’re not sure how to. How do they make a purchase? How do they find the product they want? How do they contact you? If it’s not clear, you can kiss them goodbye. Does any of the above sound familiar? Or perhaps you’ve got a good baseline, but want to fine-tune it? If so, here’s what my copywriting brings to the table: ✅ Proven Methodology I base my writing on modern, highly effective CRO principles. Effective copy doesn’t just read and flow well; it compels your prospects to take action – and that’s where mine delivers. To achieve this, I leverage proven principles of human behavior to make irresistible offers. Applying these psychological and emotional triggers persuades readers to take the desired action. ✅ Research-Driven Writing Truly outstanding copy comes from a deep understanding of its audience - their pain points, needs, and desires. To achieve this, I research your prospects and customer base, delving into the language and phrases they use. Then I deploy this vocabulary through engaging, conversational writing. ✅ CRO & UX Expertise Need help with the overall flow of your page? Although I’m not a designer, I can suggest landing page or website layouts optimized for conversion, with all the proper placement to make your customers' journey down the funnel smooth and stress-free. My Niches 🎯 I work with B2C/DTC and B2B businesses, covering various industries and niches. That includes: All kinds of e-commerce, fitness, health/wellness, supplements, skincare, haircare, home improvement, male health, digital marketing, SaaS, AI, web development, pets, recruitment, apparel, roofing, home decor, e-books ... and more! I also work with agencies, so if you have a steady stream of client work that needs copywriting, I’m your man! (Don’t see your niche? Message me! Chances are I can assist you.) My Specialisms ⚡ ✅ Landing Page Copywriting Hyper-focused copy that compels visitors to take action - whether booking consultations, downloading lead magnets, or making purchases. ✅ Product Page Copywriting I make your products sound like must-buys by highlighting benefits, addressing objections, and building trust. ✅ Website Copywriting Conversion-focused home pages and authority-building about pages that give you a competitive edge and showcase your brand. ✅ Advertorial Copywriting Engaging pre-sell content that warms up prospects before they reach your main sales page. Wait! Can't I Just Use AI? 🤖 Lots of businesses and entrepreneurs are having this thought right now. And that’s the problem. AI copy isn’t ALWAYS awful, but it is very samey. It tends to reuse the same stock phrases and ideas over and over. Happy for your brand to sound exactly the same as all the others in your niche who are using AI? Fair enough. But if you want something that’s unique and human-sounding, come to me instead. Put Your Trust In Me 🤝 Finding a talented AND reliable copywriter can be tricky! But don’t worry. I’ll provide you with outstanding work, delivered on time, with responsive communication and friendly collaboration along the way. Ready to get started? 🚀 Message me, invite me, or make me an offer!

If your business is getting traffic but not converting, the problem usually isn't your traffic. It's your message. I'm a direct response copywriter and creative strategist. For years I've written the words that turn attention into revenue sales pages, VSLs, email flows, and ad copy for eCommerce and DTC brands. Across that work I've contributed to campaigns generating over $40M in sales and delivered 3,500+ copy projects. The thread through all of it is the same: I don't write to sound clever, I write to move a specific reader toward a specific action. Most copy fails for a boring reason it talks about the product instead of the person. So I start where the money is: research. What does your buyer actually want, fear, and believe? What's stopping them from saying yes right now? Only once I understand that do I write clear, persuasive without being pushy, built around a single conversion path from first line to final CTA. ✍️ What I write Sales pages and landing pages that turn cold visitors into buyers. Email marketing and lifecycle flows welcome, abandoned cart, post purchase, win back that recover revenue most brands leave on the table. Video sales letters and long form sales copy. Ad copy and ad scripts for Meta, YouTube, and TikTok built around angles, not adjectives. And full funnel messaging one coherent voice from the ad to the page to the inbox. 🎯 Where strategy comes in I don't just hand you words and walk away. I work as a creative strategist on the copy side developing the hooks and angles before the writing, mapping each to the audience it's meant to reach, and building them as a set you can test rather than one best guess. The real win on paid traffic is rarely the cleverest line; it's finding the message market match faster than the budget burns, then having a system to find the next winning angle once the current one fatigues. That's the difference between a writer who gives you copy and a strategist who gives you a reason it will work. I focus on the messaging and creative strategy hooks, angles, scripts, and copy. 🤝 Who I work best with eCommerce and DTC brands, coaches and course creators, and teams running paid traffic who know their funnel is leaking conversions somewhere and want it found and fixed. ⚙️ How I work I dig into your audience and offer before I write a word, I deliver clean and on time, and I treat your copy as a measurable lever on revenue test the message, keep the winner, rewrite the loser not a matter of taste. If you want a copywriter who also thinks like a strategist someone who understands both the words and why they convert send me a message or invite me to your project. Tell me what's leaking, and I'll tell you how I'd fix it.

What does an Advertorial specialist do?

An advertorial specialist writes paid promotional articles that mimic the style and tone of editorial content while maintaining clear advertising disclosures. This role bridges the gap between marketing objectives and journalistic standards by crafting narratives that engage readers without deceiving them about the commercial nature of the piece. The specialist ensures sponsor messaging aligns with publisher guidelines and legal requirements for transparency.

  • Drafts and edits sponsor-approved copy in a native editorial style, adapting the voice to match the publication’s audience expectations while accurately representing the brand’s key messages and value propositions.
  • Inserts and verifies conspicuous disclosures that identify the content as sponsored or promotional, ensuring these labels meet regulatory standards and publisher policies to prevent consumer confusion or deceptive practices.
  • Coordinates review cycles between sponsors and publishers to validate claims, resolve feedback on tone or accuracy, and secure final approval before the content moves to the formatting and publication stage.

How to hire an Advertorial specialist on Upwork

Step 1: Post a job

Define your campaign goals and disclosure requirements clearly to attract writers who understand native advertising compliance. Use the Job Post Generator powered by Uma™, Upwork's Mindful AI to draft a precise description in seconds. Describe your needs in a few sentences and Uma drafts a job post for the role. You can write a new post, update a saved draft, or reuse an existing post.

  • Specify the publication format and brand voice so candidates know how to adapt sponsor messaging into editorial-style copy.
  • List required compliance standards for disclosures to ensure applicants understand legal obligations for sponsored content.
  • Include examples of previous advertorials you liked to help freelancers match your preferred tone and structure.

Step 2: Evaluate candidates

Look for portfolios that demonstrate clear separation between editorial value and promotional intent while maintaining reader engagement. Uma can run instant video interviews and build shortlists with side-by-side comparisons to speed up your review process.

  • Check for visible disclosure labels in past work to verify the freelancer understands conspicuous advertising identification rules.
  • Review samples for seamless integration of sponsor claims without compromising the natural flow of the article.
  • Assess their ability to revise copy based on publisher guidelines while keeping the core marketing message intact.

Step 3: Interview your top choices

Discuss their approach to balancing persuasive marketing with factual accuracy and publisher style guides. Interviews can be scheduled and conducted within Upwork Messages with an immediate transcript and summary after each one.

  • Ask how they handle conflicting feedback from sponsors and publishers to gauge their negotiation and editing skills.
  • Request a brief explanation of their fact-checking process for technical or health-related product claims.
  • Clarify their workflow for incorporating mandatory legal disclaimers without disrupting the reader experience.

Step 4: Agree on scope and begin work

Set clear milestones for drafts, compliance checks, and final approvals to keep the project on track. Use Upwork Messages and the contract workroom for communication and project management, plus identity verification, payment protection, hourly tracking, and project funds for security.

  • Define the number of revision rounds included in the fee to prevent scope creep during the approval phase.
  • Specify the exact format for deliverables, such as Word documents with tracked changes or direct CMS entry.
  • Agree on a timeline for sponsor reviews to ensure the freelancer can meet publication deadlines consistently.

Frequently asked questions

Is hiring an Advertorial specialist worth it?

For most businesses, yes: hiring an Advertorial specialist is worthwhile. These writers craft promotional articles that match the tone of editorial content while keeping sponsor messaging accurate. They also add clear disclosures so readers know the piece is advertising, which helps maintain trust with your audience.

How do I evaluate Advertorial specialist candidates?

Look for samples where the writer blends brand messages into a natural article style without hiding the ad nature. A strong candidate submits drafts with conspicuous labels like "Sponsored" or "Advertisement" placed where readers see them immediately.

What is the difference between an advertorial and a standard blog post?

An advertorial promotes a specific product or service using the format and tone of editorial journalism. A standard blog post shares information or opinions without paid sponsorship or mandatory advertising disclosures.

Do Advertorial specialists handle publisher compliance?

Yes, they verify that copy meets publisher guidelines for native advertising formats. They also adjust headlines and disclosure text to satisfy editorial standards before final publication.
