Hi, my name is Ken Whitaker (Howard is my given first name), an experienced freelancer who DOESN’T MISS AGREED-UPON MILESTONES! Visual communications expert (in all of its forms): - Adobe CC graphics tools: InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator - Long document book layout (InDesign, Affinity Layout), structured/hierarchical style design and KDP conversion (Kindle Create) - Blended tutorial/courseware instructional designer (with workbooks) for business and app screen recordings: PowerPoint, webcams, Camtasia, Audiate, InDesign - Technical writing and editing: User manuals (InDesign, Word, Docsie) aimed at improving end-user satisfaction (in other words, reducing customer/technical support pain) - Project leadership and ScrumMaster roles (software projects, instructional design, or user documentation) I have written books on tech leadership (Managing Software Maniacs), project management (Principles of Software Development Leadership), technical writing (A Guide to Publishing User Manuals), and InDesign (InDesign to Kindle). I work well under tight time schedules as long as there are frequent, iterative handoff reviews. At the end of most projects, you’ll get an overview “how-to” guide describing how the work was created and can be maintained (huge benefit to a client). On-time, quality results that delight the client (and their customers) mean everything. More info at leadingswmaniacs dot com. Creator of the Quick Start series of Udemy courses with Quick Start: Creating App Tutorials with Camtasia. (This course is for those CLIENTS who don’t want to commit to days learning Camtasia [or to hire a freelancer like me] and just want some basic “How-To” assistance to learn how to do screen recordings in one afternoon.) I rarely entertain fixed-price contracts (and the one time I did, it turned into four follow-up hourly-rate projects). For project management and urgent projects, a slight hourly upcharge for “rush, drop everything” jobs will be applied.

Frustrated with writers who just "clock in" for a paycheck and deliver surface-level content? You're not alone. I just solved this for another client by providing deep-dive research and critical thinking that actually moved their metrics, and they couldn't believe the results. Let's fix this together... hit me up. At heart, I'm a storyteller. I love writing descriptive SEO content that makes readers feel connected to the message or product we're writing content about. But I also have the drive you need to complete every single project on time and to your standards. My primary goal? To help small and large businesses grow by approaching copywriting from their customers' perspectives. I know the importance of researching every small detail related to a brand's products/services—I also recognize it's equally important to write in a way that feels natural, empathetic, and human. What industries am I comfortable writing for? Just about any. But here are a few I've written lots of content for. ✈️ Travel 📱 Technology 🥗 Food and Beverage 🔭 Science 🔭 SEO blogs 🔭 Health & Wellness 🔖 Job Search Advice 📈 B2B & B2C Marketing 🔐 Cybersecurity 📚 Education 🏂 Motherhood ⚓️ Relationships 🏡 Real Estate If you don't see your industry/niche on that list, there's still a good chance I've worked with a brand in your space! Need an article writer to create blog posts? No problem. How about someone to write SEO product descriptions, blogs, landing pages and copies that not only rank high on SERP but also get customers to click "purchase now"? I can do that, too. Maybe you just need someone to quickly proofread and edit your landing page...I'd love to help! And I'm not all talks, I'll provide samples of my previous work for you to check if it meets what you need. I write copies that convert, leveraging SEO and paying close attention to detail. I take every project as seriously as the last, and stand by my copywriting results and reputation on Upwork. See that "available now" badge? I mean it—I'm ready to help right away, and can work for my hourly rate or on a fixed price per word/project. 📲 Send me a message or a job invite, and let's get the ball rolling. Let's create content that connects with your audience, pure and simple! Direct Response Copywriter | Content Writer | SEO
