Homepage and ReadMe Copy
For open source companies, your homepage copy and your ReadMe copy are the two most important pieces of copy you’ll produce.
I’ve written the homepage for companies like Chronosphere and Dagger. I can write yours — assuming you can fill out a positioning canvas for me ahead of time so I know what ideas I should be conveying.

*Additional website / documentation copywriting available as well, based on a custom quote.
Turnkey lead magnet campaign
Lead magnets, whether a white paper or ebook, are an important part of an overall content strategy — but they need a wrap-around promotional campaign to be as effective as possible. Here’s what’s included in my lead magnet campaigns:
Writing the lead magnet, including collaborating to determine the best tone, topic and format to reach your target audience and objectives
Collaborating with your internal design team to make sure the lead magnet is ready to publish and that the design and text work together
Writing the landing page for the lead magnet
Writing a nurture campaign to send to leads who download the lead magnet
Writing a promotional email to send to current subscribers
Promoting the lead magnet on social media
This assumes a lead magnet that is between 3,000 and 4,000 words.
