Want a FREE brand archetype assessment? It only takes 2 minutes. DM me! 💝 Beauty / Wellness / Skincare / Fashion / Textiles / CPGs / Retail ⬇️ Client Shortlist / SSENSE / LOLË / Renue By Science™ / Elf on the Shelf® / Continental Cosmetics / GEHWOL® / TOOFRUIT / felaTV / *** Hi! 👋🏼 I see you’re looking for a copywriter who knows their way around SEO, CRM, product launches, brand voice, ClickUp....can I step in to help out? I’ve written everything from video scripts to welcome sequences, product launch campaigns (my favourite!), limited time offers, nurture content, and newsletters for high-ticket fashion, skincare, and culinary brands. My family and I ran a ground transportation business for over 15 years (Pristine Limousine 💙). That’s where I developed B2B campaigns that led to our five-year contract with Air France (yup! That's $150,000 for every year of business that sparked a 35% revenue increase in 2023 alone). I’ve since moved on to craft B2B / D2C campaigns and copy for brands like SSENSE, Renue by Science™, GEHWOL, Skeyndor, TOOFRUIT, and LOLË. MY APPROACH TO BRAND VOICE: If I were to craft a campaign for YOUR brand, I’d balance the narrative using one or two archetypes: 🧙🏼‍♂️ SAGE ~ the voice that cuts through complexity like a hot knife. 👑 RULER - the voice that commands with luxurious taste. 🃏 JESTER ~ the voice that charms with a wink and a clever turn of phrase. ✈️ BEST FRIEND ~ the voice that makes anywhere feel like home. ✨ CAREGIVER ~ the voice that whispers, “I’ve got you.” There are more archetypes... but that’s just a sneak peak into my creative process 😉. EXPERIENCE WITH KLAVIYO, ACTIVECAMPAIGN, CLICKUP, SALES LAYER, & BIGCOMMERCE. I’ve written full flows and one-off campaigns for product launches, lifecycle retention, seasonal promos, product spotlights, and more. . I like to prepare 2-3 subject lines for A/B testing. Plus, I always consider eye-movement, hierarchy, and consumer psychology while crafting CTAs and microcopy. I use Canva to create the mockup and graphic assets. HOW I LEVERAGE AI: This year, I set up a custom blog-creator in ChatGPT using plug-ins and prompts that walk me through the entire process: research, SEO, structure, and first draft. Then I obsessively line-edit to make sure everything reads sharp, strategic, formatted, and on-brand. Ultimately, I treat AI like a drafting partner. NOT an all-in-one copy/paste solution. Brand voice is king, so I’ll always humanize my work before d-day. DO I WORK WITH TEMPLATES? Bring on the SOPs, briefs, prompts, outlines, exemplars, brand books, style guides, catalogues, keyword glossaries, swatches, and lexicons. E-COMMERCE EXPERIENCE: I’ve written for luxury fashion, skincare, direct services, and retail brands. With me, you’ll get: ✅ Scroll-stopping subject lines ✅ Intuitive micro-copy ✅ Effortless landing pages ✅ CTAs that demand to be clicked ✅ Product descriptions that give you fomo HOW I KEEP THE BRAND VOICE SNAPPY (Even At Scale) 👀 🔒 Lock down the voice. Every email should feel like it’s been written by the same spirit. 🌊 Batch first and finesse later. I write in waves: work out the flow, then ripple back to convey the archetypes. 🫖 Data = Tea. Open rate, clickthrough, AOV, all of the things. Whatever’s working (and flopping), fret not. I’ll sparkle it up for round two. Browse my portfolio to check out a few samples. Then send me a DM 😉. Best, Sara.
