Why work with me?

About pages are supposed to tell you things like: What can I do for you as your copywriter? What’s your advantage working with me? What’s in it for you in the end? What am I like? Am I easy to work with?

Let’s start with this.

You get an award-winning copywriter with sales experience.

When it comes to business experience, people think I’m joking when I tell them I started in the family business at 13-years old.

I absolutely did.

At 15-years-old, dad mentored me in residential sales calls and submitting project proposals. By my early 20s I was selling commercial, industrial, and residential flat roof projects, running crews, competing with contractors who’d been bidding projects longer than I’d been alive… and beating them.

Since the day I could swing a hammer without swelling a thumb, I’ve been exposed to, or been in, business.

Eventually, I wound up adding to my business experience in the food service industry. I spent over 25-years operating a small vending business.

Today, I help companies in the music industry with their B2B copywriting projects, specializing in sales enablement content.

Why should you care?

My sales and business experience are assets to your B2B writing projects. 

• Troubleshooting and problem solving, so you have another perspective to draw from in a challenge.
• Idea creation to help keep things fresh.
• Organizational skills to keep the project flowing, and you in the loop.
• Return on Investment mindset to prevent project scope creep with no return value.
• Self-disciplined work ethic, no need to push me to get it done.
• Knowing the value of deadlines… you won’t miss one because of me.
• Serving as a positive member of your team, because that is just the way it is.

I could go on. Those are business qualities not common in a B2B copywriter. Let alone one with sales and business experience to help you.

Oh yeah, I’m a musician.

I’ve played acoustic guitar since I was 14-years old, played in worship bands, performed as a solo artist, been part of multiple songwriting organizations, served as Tech Director, Vice President, and President for the Minnesota Association of Songwriters, have written featured articles on songwriting education for Muses News, published my own paid songwriting newsletter, and help acoustic songwriters through a labor of love web project of mine at www.acoustictunesmith.com.

I’ve enjoyed a life of music and songwriting for many years and do not plan on stopping. I understand the music industry, your prospect’s needs, your needs, and the end user’s needs.

If that’s not enough, try this one out.

You also get a writer with gratitude, team work, and forward thinking.

I’ve spent decades involved with Not-for-Profit organizations as board member, officer, or a member on a state business enterprise committee.

When your president of a NFP, managing a team of volunteers, you learn the art of teamwork. As volunteers, you gain a heightened sense of appreciation and gratitude for everyone’s contribution to the project.

You get an award-winning writer recognized by the copywriting industry

I am a Verified Direct Response Copywriter through American Writers and Artists Institute (AWAI) a leading global authority for copywriting training.

I’ve earned my Sales Enablement Mastery & Certification from AWAI.

I also earned a Simulated Training Certification, am a Silver Level Winner from Professional Writer’s Alliance, and a 2019 AWAI Bootcamp Spec Winner.

There might be more awards tucked away, but the point isn’t to recite my achievements.

The point is, you need sales enablement or B2B projects completed, and I’m here to help you. And I’m honored to have you as my client.

It’s simple really.

I know your value to my business, and it’s an honor to work with you.

By now, you’ve picked up I’m pretty authentic. What you see is what you get. After all, we’ll be working together, so you might as well know a little about me.

When you’re ready, get in touch, and we’ll see if you and I are a good fit for your project.
