The number one request that I see for content is to translate complex concepts into more accessible, understandable language. I have over 25 years of experience at doing just that. I have provided successful, easy-to-read and SEO-friendly content in many forms: ad copy; white papers; eBooks; PowerPoint, symposium papers, technology product descriptions and so on. I even authored a monthly newsletter for 15 years, and wrote three chapters of an engineering textbook for high school students. If you are looking for an experienced, reliable writer who can write about everything from humanoid robots, to machine vision systems, smart grids, the latest in recycling, and the rise of hydrogen as a clean fuel, then I’ve got the experience and talent you need for the job. The content you present is a reflection of your company. Make sure your written documents truly reflect who you are. First impressions matter and clean, understandable and well-organized content sends a message of how your company operates. Don’t sell yourself short. Let my experience in content creation be the voice that your customers and prospects hear. If you even think you might benefit from a professional, experienced content provider, then reach out to me. A consultation costs nothing but can make a world of a difference to engagement with your target audience.
