01
Legal and recruitment
Research-led writing for JMC Legal Recruitment on law, lawyers and the changing legal market.
Six years with JMC Legal Recruitment means knowing the sector and finding fresh angles within it. Website messaging, researched articles and LinkedIn content are built around the people they need to reach. SEO research shapes the content. Audits show where it’s earning its keep and where to focus next.

Positioning, page structure and SEO targeting to make JMC’s executive search offer distinct and guide the right clients towards a confidential conversation.

02
Travel and hospitality
Travel copy that finds the character of a place and makes readers wish they were there.
The brief starts with search intent and keyword research. The writing gives readers somewhere to go: Finland’s lakeside summers, London’s literary corners or a birthday escape by train. Local detail brings each place to life. Practical advice helps turn interest into a plan.

Specialist businesses
Copy that gets to grips with your business and gives people a reason to choose it.
Different businesses need different explanations. Kilsaran’s client stories show how financial advice applies to real decisions. Your Nature’s website and packaging tell the story of a father-and-son business and its products. For Tai Chi Nick, the website and copy explain how people can learn online.

Notes from the Studio
On words, websites and how they work together.
Is your website using its posh telephone voice?
Most website projects start with the wrong question.

You just got me and you found my voice! I don’t know how you do it, but it’s spot on.
