When you require marketing or content writing that is well structured, intelligent and isn't your run-of-the-mill output, please consider me. I have extensive and proven experience in marketing communications, including: * Creation of marketing strategies and business plans * Web page development, including social media planning and execution * Copywriting of off- and online collateral * Research and writing of press releases, byline articles and blogs * Web-based research projects I have worked in B2B technology & telecoms markets, and the B2C sector. I can't compete with cheap offshore providers than churn out high-volume, low-value content; consider me for your bespoke or technically challenging projects.
