    🧨As an Expert-Vetted Upworker, I have a proven track record of developing solutions and MVPs to make your business idea come alive with code, creative thinking, and an obsession about customer experience. Part of this magic is being able to wrangle integrations between systems. Regard me as an API whisperer - if it has an API, I’ll be able to figure out a way to get systems to talk. I specialise in crafting WhatsApp Bot messaging using the Meta Cloud API for conversations and Flows, as well as a number of visual chat builder solutions like (Message) Bird, Twilio, InfoBip, Voiceflow, ManyChat, Dialogflow. Sometimes data bridges need to be built between APIs, and for this I build micro services in Cloudflare Workers. The real power of this channel is realised when I integrate it into your systems, workflows, and CRMs, as well as tapping into external services (like ChatGPT’s OpenAI) via APIs. Other API integrations I’ve done include Stripe, Monday.com, Knack, Airtable, Google Sheets, OneDrive, Hubspot to name a few. 🦸‍♂️ SUPERPOWER Articulating, framing, and presenting complex ideas after deep research. 🧰 SKILLS TOOLBOX If you need very specific skills for a defined period: • WhatsApp API bot strategy, service design, development • Customising data transformations using Cloudflare Workers where Make/Zapier can't do the job • API expert: Stripe / Monday.com / Knack / Airtable / Zoho /Google Sheets / OpenAI / Amadeus • MVPs and proof-of-concept development • UX reviews and audits • User Journey + CX Analytics • Optimisation & UX A/B Testing + CRO • Pitch research and technical leadership • Analytics deep-dives & GA4/BigQuery/GTM • App flow and user research • AWS S3/Lambda/EC2 & Cloudflare Workers • Business ⇄ Technical Communicator • Can both think and do digital: from code and Figma prototypes, to developing and articulating digital strategy for C-Suite and Technical audiences. • Was a core member of the global Publicis Groupe Creative Technologists team 💚 CLIENTS LOVE ME “I am consistently amazed by Simon's exceptional ability to tackle new initiatives with a fresh perspective. His knack for devising simple yet effective solutions to complex problems is truly remarkable. Simon's diligent work ethic is evident in his approach to challenges, and his skill in building buy-in and garnering support is second to none. He's not only a valuable team player but also a pleasure to collaborate with. Working alongside Simon is truly a rewarding experience.” - Francois Uys, Head: Digital, Marketing & Sales at Sanlam Rewards, South Africa “I had the pleasure of working with Simon significant enterprise platform project.

His problem solving approach and strategic foresight helped us design a class leading product with a future proof architecture. Skills with a winning attitude is a great combo.” - Jim Faulds, SVP Publicis Commerce SA

    Why should you choose me as your copywriter? Beyond my exceptional soft skills, my writing has the power to convert. Allow me to elaborate. Copywriting is an art that requires a structured approach, eliminating fluff, and directly addressing your customers' needs, wants, desires, and logical justifications. When done right, it results in converting and retaining customers. It's one thing to write catchy copy, but true skill lies in captivating and maintaining your readers' attention throughout the entire journey, up until they click the checkout button. That's precisely what I do. I meticulously ensure every word is carefully placed, driving the desired impact at the right time and with the right intention. Consider it as a checklist: You define your objectives, and I'll wield the pen, ticking off each box flawlessly. I always aim to add value to each of my clients and their long term and short term objectives. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute my expertise to your team and help achieve your copywriting goals. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Tammy.

I am currently studying medicine at the University of Stellenbosch in Cape Town, South Africa and looking to make a little extra money during my free time. I am a good, dedicated worker. Thinking out of the box is something that's familiar to me. I’m very particular about anything that I do. I am very creative, although my creativity lends itself to writing only. At school I did English, Maths, Afrikaans, Accounting, Physical Sciences and Life Sciences. I was especially proficient at Life Sciences and English. Therefore I think k would be good at editing, transcription, content creation etc. I am also familiar with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint as well as Google Docs and Google Slides and Canva.
