Free copywriting tips

Fed up with the same old blah?

I craft words that will resonate with your readers and appeal to those pesky search engines.

SAY HELLO

Experienced

I've been a freelance copywriter for 10 years. And I was writing content for a decade before that. So you can trust me to deliver a high standard of work.

Down-to-Earth

I understand that you are running a business and need someone who can just get on with it, so I won't waste your time. I'll work with your in-house team and external suppliers to get the job done.

Affordable

My rate is less than the national average for a UK freelance copywriter*. With further discounted packages available. Who doesn't like a bargain?

Hello, I'm Deborah. But you can call me Bee.

I'm a UK-based freelance copywriter, content creator, wordsmith, storyteller, business writer, and blogger.

And I do clever things with words.

We all know that words have power.

Words can start a conversation. Words can shape opinions. Words can inspire, educate, and prompt action.

But to make words do all that, you need a copywriter who knows what they’re doing.

With clients across the UK, I cut through the jargon to create engaging, intelligent, business-relevant content that will position you as a thought-leader, improve your SEO, increase engagement, and help you win more business.

I’ve crafted words that warned about an upcoming pandemic (long before Covid!), inspired a political movement, engaged disillusioned employees, celebrated the London 2012 Olympics, and sold a lot of stuff.

As well as working directly with clients, I also help marketing and SEO agencies that require expert copywriting support.

What is a freelance copywriter?

Because you have found my website. I’m going to assume you know what a freelance copywriter does. But just in case you don’t (like my entire family), a copywriter doesn’t help people with legal copyright issues. 

  • Copyright: Gives legal protection to your work and stops others from using it without your permission
  • Copywriter: Writes words to help your business succeed. 
While I can’t protect and defend your intellectual property, if you are a law firm or other legal business, I can help support your marketing efforts. It’s no wonder my mum is confused.

Reviews

You would expect me to tell you that I'm good at what I do. But you don't have to take my word for it.

Here are some of the lovely things my clients have said about working with me.

"Deborah is one of the most tenacious marketers I have ever had the pleasure to work with. With an ability to grasp complex ideas and get to grips with disparate industries quickly and efficiently, she is an excellent writer and a fantastic project manager. Equally at home driving inbound campaigns as she is running complicated branding, advertising and web projects, during my time working with Deborah I always knew that the agency’s work was in safe hands – and that her clients trusted her judgement implicitly. Feisty, funny and fabulous, she’s also great fun to work with and a great asset to any team."
Abi Buckley
Abi Buckley Managing Editor, Contentology
"The modern law firm, whether highly specialised or multi discipline has an immense challenge on its hands. To create engaging, interesting and informative content across a range of digital channels and access points. From Conveyancing to Commercial Litigation, to maintain that skill set in in house is difficult for legal marketers. Debbie helps us address our content requirements across a very broad church of specialist legal areas, advising us what the right content for the right access point is. On point, on message, on time - always."
Dougie Watt

"Deborah is working with me to write engaging content across a number of platforms. In a short space of time she has very rapidly become an invaluable member of the team who can be truly relied upon when her support is needed."
Anita Saini-Golding
Anita Saini-GoldingHead of Marketing, Linder Myers
"Deborah and I have worked closely on a number of campaigns and projects. Collaboration with her is always a delight. Deborah works extremely well under pressure, remaining calm, never missing a deadline, but also never sacrificing her meticulous attention to detail. I have found that she truly understands her clients, standing in their shoes, and producing work which accurately reflects her brief, no matter how varied. Her personality is infectious and will liven up any workplace. Without doubt, Deborah would always be my number one choice."
Suzanne Lurie
Suzanne LurieBusiness Development Manager, Mid-Sized, Full Service Law Firm
"Deborah worked with JMC IT for a number of years across a range of on and offline marketing projects. In particular she created a suite of collateral which conveyed the high quality IT support and services we provide to our customers. From brief to completion she got to grips with the sometimes complex subject matter in hand, creating compelling, informative copy that appealed to both technical and non-technical audiences alike. With a fantastic ability to get to the point and get the job done, she is also friendly, enthusiastic and always willing to help."
Andrew Burgess
Andrew BurgessManaging Director, JMC IT
"When I set up my own consultancy practice in 2015 it was obvious who I should approach to develop my new website. Having previously worked with Bee for three years in a medium-sized law practice I was fully aware of her creative abilities and no-nonsense professionalism. Bee’s strong and engaging personality, combined with a good sense of humour, only add to her credentials as an essential go-to supplier for any dynamic business."
Tina Hawley
Tina HawleyManaging Director, Quickmere Consulting Ltd
"Having worked with Deborah in the past she was the natural choice to wave her magic content wand over our new website and bring it up to scratch. She is a joy to work with, and takes time to understand not only your business but what you are trying to achieve."

Kim CarmylliePractice Manager, Price Slater Gawne
"I've worked with a large number of marketing agencies throughout my career and Deborah has been one of the best account managers I've come across. She listens, she keeps you informed, she's organised, she's pleasant to work with and she delivers. She's also great at marketing - fully knowledgeable about all the latest marketing platforms and how to use them - and I've learnt a lot from her."
Julie Pease
Julie PeaseInternational Marketing Manager, NetNames and Envisional
"I worked with Deborah over a number of years on some PR and Marketing campaigns. Her approaches to my varying needs were always met with inspired solutions and I was never disappointed by the innovative approach that she took, or her strong client management skills and thirst for knowledge when researching new ways to help market a new business area. As a result of her creative thinking we always had successful PR campaigns increasing click through on our web site or email enquiries to the business. I would strongly recommend Deborah to any potential clients."
Alex Brain
Alex BrainBusiness Development Manager, Boccard
"I have worked with Deborah on a wide range of print and online marketing campaigns and branding projects. Not only is Deborah a great project manager and communicator, she’s also a skilled writer who understands how to craft compelling, brand-enhancing content.

FAQs about using a UK freelance copywriter?

Is it better to use an agency or UK freelance copywriter?

Some people prefer to work with an established agency when looking for a copywriter. Usually, because they think they will get a better-quality service. 

For others, the cost-effectiveness of using a freelancer is the deciding factor – particularly where budgets are tight.

Fancy the best of both worlds?

Having previously worked at an award-winning marketing agency – for clients such as The Financial Times, Elsevier and Shell – I honed my skills among some of the very best writing talent in the UK.

So, with me, you’ll benefit from a high-quality writing service at a fraction of the price of using an agency.  

Why bother with a UK freelance copywriter?

There are many reasons why you might be considering a freelance copywriter.

Perhaps you want to give your SEO a bit of a boost. Maybe you need to attract more customers. Or it could be that your marketing needs a little extra sparkle.

For many businesses, it’s simply not feasible to employ a permanent copywriter. But that doesn’t mean that high-quality writing support isn’t required.

By using my freelance copywriting services, you’ll get business writing of the highest standard without the commitment of hiring a permanent employee.

What if I need more than just a UK freelance copywriter?

Looking for full marketing support?

No problem!

As well as offering top-notch copywriting, I have established partnerships with some of the finest marketing strategists, social media experts, and SEO specialists.

Together, we form an unstoppable team ready to take your brand to new heights.

To make your copy work harder than ever before, give me a shout.

I’ll gladly connect you with the experts who will transform your marketing game!

Why use a UK freelance copywriter for your blogs?

A cost-effective marketing tool, a blog is a great way to create and nurture relationships with your target audience.

Blogs help you to demonstrate your expertise, they add a real dash of personality to your organisation, and, just as important, Google loves them too.

But to deliver results, blogs need time and attention – and that can be difficult.

Thinking about creating a blog but can’t find the time to get started? Or, perhaps you have a blog but struggle to keep it updated? Regardless of your circumstances, my blog copywriting service can help.

Regular blogs without the fuss

Letting you get on with what you do best, as a freelance blog writer, I create engaging, business-relevant blogs that resonate with your readers and appeal to search engines.

Having written blogs for a wide range of sectors, on a diverse range of subjects, my blogging service is tailored to you and the needs of your organisation.

For one fixed monthly fee, I provide a blog writing service to help you achieve all the benefits a blog can deliver without the pressure of finding the time to sit down and write.

Or, you can just use me for one-off blogs whenever you have something to say.

Whatever works for you.

Why use me as your UK freelance copywriter?

There are lots of freelance blog and website writers out there. So how do you choose the right copywriter for you?

Many businesses prefer to work with an established agency rather than a freelance copywriter; the benefits of an agency usually being a high-quality service, both in terms of the copy produced and deadlines met. For others, the cost of using a freelancer is the deciding factor when hiring a copywriter.

With me, you get the best of both worlds.

Having worked at an award-winning agency for five years I regularly created compelling, engaging copy for clients.

And I never missed a deadline.

As a freelancer, you can be sure of the same dedication and commitment at a fraction of the price.
