I'm bringing something back this summer
|
Hi Reader, Most business owners have a collection of writing projects that live in a strange middle ground. They're important enough to stay on the list, but not urgent enough to get done. Over time, those projects begin to pile up. The website doesn't quite reflect where the business is today. Marketing materials need attention. Opportunities come along that require a stronger bio, a better LinkedIn profile, or a clearer way of talking about what you do. That's why one of my most popular offers is making a return this summer. I'll share all the details in my next email. And if you simply can't wait because you love being first, hit reply to this email and I'll spill the beans. Best, |

Hi Reader, Everybody wants to talk about tactics. Should I start a podcast? Do I need a YouTube channel? What about Instagram? Paid ads? A landing page? Maybe.

He owned a trades business, and direct mail had been successful for him. The letters would thank customers for their business and include a gentle request for referrals. Then he...
Hi Reader, Here’s a question I get a lot: “What comes first—branding or messaging?” And my answer is: yes. Because the truth is, people start where they feel the pain. Sometimes the pain is the words. They’re doing great work, but the messaging isn’t landing.It feels too dense, too generic, too “professional.” That’s when they start with me. We clarify the voice, sharpen the message, and suddenly the next step is obvious: The visuals need to rise to meet it. That’s when I send them to Heard...
