I have over 14 years in messaging, positioning, branding, copywriting, and content marketing, as well as ~5 years of end-to-end marketing program strategy and execution. I focus on translating complex, technical topics into clear, clean, and easy-to-digest marketing content. I also provide full marketing strategy, execution, and leadership, as I have built these systems for clients before, and acted as an internal Head of Marketing where I designed and executed a full multichannel marketing strategy from scratch. My clients have said: ——"A+ -- Highly responsive, great work, and most importantly actually understands what he is talking about." ——“Craig is a real talent, he doesn't just write, he does business development, asks useful questions and makes you think through your business strategy. He re-wrote our entire website, shaping our ideas and inspiring us to market new service packages. Craig is our go-to top gun from now on. Great work, couldn't be happier.” ——“You will not find a better writer, researcher and planner for whatever work you have in mind. This freelancer can do it all. If you need it done, hire him.” ——“Was great to work with. He always responded quickly and kept us regularly updated. All work was completed quickly to an excellent standard. Would not hesitate to recommend and would definitely rehire if we had another content writing project come along. Thanks!” ——"I recommend Craig to anyone who wants to move their content quality to the next level” If you feel we might be a good fit for each other, reach out, and we’ll chat about your project or ongoing needs." -Craig

When I entered the field of technology writing a number of years ago, I asked why everyone seemed to think there was some sort of rule decreeing that this type of writing must be boring. How do you talk to an audience about technology? Are the experiences of the people using it not interesting to them? Could details about technology products, services and processes not be contextualized in a narrative that’s actually enjoyable to read? I decided to find out by running some experiments in my own writing. As it happened, infusing narrative style, humor and personality into writing about technology topics not only didn’t hurt; it drove traffic, engrossed readers and impressed editors and clients. It made the work stand out amid the reams of predictable technical writing online. As a top writer for SiliconANGLE media, I’ve written over 1,500 articles about every technology topic under the sun. I’ve also written email sales letters, web-page content, landing pages, case studies and more for clients such as Uber and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. Get in touch if you want top-notch copywriting or other content for an audience of smart, demanding technology practitioners or consumers.

Need social media help? I was an account manager at TikTok's Seattle office, directly managing $2M monthly GMV & assisting with $6M/month on TikTok Shop. I now manage $3M GMV/month & $600k+ monthly ad budgets Prior to working at TikTok, I’ve generated over 2 BILLION views & 12 million followers. I’ve worked for L’Oréal, SEMRush, and multiple marketing agencies ⭐Please refer to samhollans.com for my portfolio and case studies! ⭐ TikTok Shop can be EXPENSIVE, point blank. Mass samples, expensive agencies, affiliate commissions, promotional habits, fulfillment costs - The list goes on. Many brands unknowingly overspend, think 50 affiliates will make them rich, or quit when they realize they can't be profitable. All approaches fail! After working at TikTok and managing 100+ accounts, I know what it takes to scale. I know where to spend, where to save, and where to automate. Whether you need a one-time audit, ongoing consulting, or full-service management, I can help you grow from 0 to 7-figure months. LET’S WORK! Shoot me a message/invite, and we can review your goals and expectations.

No, I'm not THAT Michael Jordan. ;) I'm a Global Communications Advisor and author of "The Global Communications Toolkit." I feel fortunate to have lived on four continents - from America to Europe, from Africa to Asia - during my career, which has spanned three fields: International Journalism, International Education and Communications Consulting. Now back in New York, I'm an organizational Communications Strategist, Storytelling Specialist and Team Trainer on the one hand, while also working with individual professionals as an Executive Coach, Personal Branding Guru, Writer and Editor, I relish the challenge of helping you or your organization prove your words, deliver your message, build your brand, and impact your audience. All of it, as persuasively as possible. How? With evidence-driven content. Among the skills and strategies I'll apply to your work - and share with you - is my approach: identify a core message; support it with credible evidence; weave it into what I call "Strategic Storytelling." I do all this for my clients as Founder of MJ Method Communications, a New York-based boutique consultancy specializing in Global Communications, Media Relations, Executive Coaching, Staff Training, Thought Leadership, Strategic Storytelling - and other forms of brand-building content-creation. As for my background, I feel fortunate to have lived on four continents - from America to Europe, from Africa to Asia - during a career that's spanned three fields: International Journalism, International Education and Communications Consulting. As a freelance Foreign Correspondent, I'm a former UN correspondent who's reported from 30 countries in Eastern Europe, Central Asia and Southern Africa, for media like Foreign Policy magazine; the French news agency AFP; the Christian Science Monitor newspaper; and South Africa's Mail & Guardian. I was also a UN correspondent for four years, covering the entire Sept. 11th aftermath. Twenty years ago, I also began teaching university students and training professionals in the field. As a Visiting Professor of International Journalism, I've taught from New York to Central Europe, from China to Southern Africa. both undergrads and grad students. From 2011-15, I lived in the remote African kingdom of Lesotho, which is where I first adapted all of my International Journalism skills, strategies and storytelling styles to the challenges of Global Communications. Especially in the areas of Health, Development and Environmental Protection. Among my most meaningful projects in Lesotho was to illuminate one American NGO’s impact on the large community of HIV orphans. I interviewed, photographed and wrote the stories of 24 beneficiaries, which the NGO – Management Sciences for Health – then published as an e-book. From this experience, I crafted my own interviewing-storytelling method to identify, unearth and illustrate any organization’s true on-the-ground impact, which I call "The Fork in the Road." I apply this to the needs of my non-profit and for-profit clients, creating new specialties like Sustainability Storytelling, ESG Storytelling, SDG Storytelling, DEI Storytelling, and so on. From 2015-2020, I lived in Beijing. Among my projects there, I was a Global Communications specialist (for clients like Huawei and Mars); a News Editor, Scriptwriter and Media Analyst for the China Global Television Network; and a Visiting Professor of International Journalism. I taught at Renmin University of China, Beijing Foreign Studies University, Shanghai International Studies University and Hong Kong Baptist University. I've also taught in New York, at Long Island University; in Europe, at University of Saints Cyril and Methodius, in Trnava, Slovakia, and at Masaryk University, in Brno, Czechia; and in Africa, at the National University of Lesotho. Now back in New York, among my clients, I'm proud to assist three African organizations: *As Global Communications Advisor to Tech Herfrica, a Nigerian NGO empowering rural women. *As Global Communications Advisor to Beberavi, a Kenyan social enterprise for HIV widows. *As Global Communications Advisor to SIA-Africa, a Ghanaian NGO supporting youth education. In the field of Fashion, Sustainability and Communications, I serve as an Impact Communications Coach for the “Conscious Fashion Design Academy” and will soon lead a three-session Content-Creation Workshop. In New York, I'm also the Strategic Communications Advisor to A Song For You, a music-therapy NGO for hospice patients founded during COVID. Moreover, as an Executive Coach, I work with a range of individuals: from leaders and staffers climbing the career ladder - coaching them with any Executive Communications, like writing speeches, opinion pieces, blog posts, cover-letters, building their LinkedIn platforms, etc. - down to their sons and daughters, guiding them through writing their Personal Essays for University Applications.
