Copy Writing - Advertising - Publicity - Catalogs - Advertorials

Fishing for clients? I can help make sure you've got the right bait. I've read countless press releases over my 10 years as an editor and writer so I know what captures a journalist's attention. A couple of years ago I wrote a press release for a small brewery in Boulder County, Colorado, announcing their new no-smoking policy. The story landed on the front page of the daily paper and a spot on CNN Headline News. On my first project with Scarpa, the director of marketing said I "nailed" the catalog copy on the first shot. Below are some samples of actual, unedited text I sent to clients. What can I do for you?
