Writing services - do you need a writer?

Michael from Kamo

Hey whānau, I'm Mike. I’m a wordsmith and Digital Storyteller.

I have just been made redundant from my job with an Aussie software company and I'd love to help you with your writing/website/communications needs over summer for work.

So, I'm Whangarei-based and available to meet in person.

My expertise is in digital wordsmithery- so, how I could potentially be useful to you is:

· Writing articles good enough to get into reputable news publications

· Getting your business stories into the news (pitching stories)

· Communications (Public relations)

· Marketing emails, writing scripts for your videos, blogging, SEO and keywording

· Writing biography material, writing your family stories or capturing your personality in words

· Collecting testimonials from your customers (handling those awkward cringe phone calls with clients)

· Aaand publishing all of the above on your CMS / website/ mailouts / social media platforms.

I’m really looking for ongoing work where possible so that I can get deeply invested in your story.

Many thanks for letting me post and please flick me a message if you feel I could help you with some work.
