SERVICES
Take a fresh look at your business communications
We combine experience and 'comma sense' with our comms support. We're happy to flex the level of support to meet your needs.
Just have a peek at the services we offer and contact us to discuss your project.
Based in Warrington, Cheshire, we also have some fabulous contacts in web and graphic design, photography and event management, so if we can’t provide the service you're looking for, we probably know someone who can.
Copywriting
If you can't find the words, we will. We specialise in digital copywriting for websites, including blog posts, page content, case studies and testimonials. Brochures, posters, magazines and leaflets are also our cup of tea (in truth, we prefer coffee). We’ll walk in the shoes of your customers and write content that resonates with them, to help you grow your business. We can offer content packages so if you’d like a series of blog posts, please contact us for rates.
Proofreading and Editing
Sometimes clients prefer to write their own content and need a second pair of eyes to review it. We can turn our expert eye to all types of document, from reports and presentations, to newsletters and emails. Simplifying complex information, tone of voice and grammatical tweaks are our specialities!
CV and LinkedIn profile creation
You have a CV, but it's just not getting you through that crucial first stage of the selection process. If your CV is not working for you, or you need to create one from scratch, we have the skills to produce a professional and polished CV that truly reflects your personality.
Our LinkedIn profile writing package will ensure recruiters and/or new customers can find you.
Please get in touch to find out more.
Website content audit
Think you need a new website? Think again. Often all it needs is an expert eye and some content changes to inject new life into your website.
Following a deep dive into your company website, we'll write an honest review of the content and structure, and make recommendations on how you can improve it. We can also support you to make any changes and write new copy for your site.

“Lucy has written a series of blogs for me and I have been delighted with her work, interest and time spent researching the topic. The first blog she wrote was on Reflexology Lymph Drainage and after sharing the post on social media, I received 4 bookings for this fantastic treatment as a result! Her communication skills are excellent - as you would expect! She is efficient, genuinely interested in the topic and her fees are extremely reasonable.”
Zoë Oughton, Relaxing Reflexology

“Sometimes what we try to say gets buried in a deluge of language and terminology that would be off-putting to the reader. What Lucy brings with her is a wealth of commercial experience, so she understands the key points we want to communicate and can cut through it to create structured articles that are engaging and easy to read. She is also very good at keeping me to schedule and our blogs and newsletters now go out with regularity.”
Alex Dodgshon, Uscita

“Lucy is great to work with. She listens with the absolute intention of fully understanding your messages and then, works her magic. She turns bullet points into blogs that get right to the point with messages aligned to your aspirations. I think Lucy is creative, clear and concise. Not only that, she leads projects and always delivers on time, with superb results. She has made a huge difference to my business. I'd recommend Lucy to anyone who may need her skills and expertise.”​

“Lucy wrote some copy for our insurance product pages with the aim of helping us rank highly on search engines and converting readers into policyholders. Whilst some of the copy was extremely niche (one of the pages she wrote was on guitar insurance!) Lucy took to it seamlessly, producing clear, compelling copy which demonstrated a sound understanding of our brand and audience. I'm pleased to report that we now have the Google snippet for guitar insurance, by the way! I would absolutely recommend Lucy to anyone and she was a joy to work with.”​
