Why hire me?

Good question.

I’ll be the first to admit, there are a lot of talented writers out there. And most of them will be more than happy to brag about the bevy of creative awards sitting on the fireplace mantle. So, what makes me different from most other self-proclaimed creative gurus? For one thing, I’m one of the few writers who has actually worked on the client side of the business. So I understand the importance of producing measurable results and sticking to a budget. The way I see it, the true measure of an ad’s success isn’t in the accolades it earns for its creator, but in the results it produces for the client. And producing measurable results is something I’m very good at – whether it’s by turning the turnstiles, making the cash register ring, or driving traffic to a website.

I am also extremely well versed. For the last 20 years, I’ve worked in every medium you can name, from television and radio to direct mail and the Web. I’ve also had the privilege of working on some national campaigns in nearly every client category you can imagine, and I believe my clients benefits from my “real world” perspective.

When you work with me, you won’t just get an ad; you’ll get a marketing solution. One that shows respect for your customers and sets you apart from your competitors. Hence my tagline: “Marketing savvy, Creative knack.” Maybe that’s why Thumbtack has listed me as “One of the best writers in Portland.” Enjoy your visit. I look forward to working with you.
