Now offering my strategic writing skills direct-to-brands, so they can close the gap between strategy and copy. https://www.leapling.co.uk In the last 12 months, I've helped: • wagamama to articulate the why/what/how of the business internally, bring it to life with a manifesto film, and present it to customers with a new 'food is life' strapline and 'comfort with a kick' TOV • Penguin Random House to define and roll out a brand new positioning and tone of voice • Secret Cinema with messaging and 'be part of something bigger' strapline to launch their new B2B brand • Chanel to present their VIP service to internal stakeholders with a beautiful conceptual film, 'The Invitation' • B&Q to elevate the tone of comms for their internal customer service training program • YouTube with TOV guidelines, and creative platforms expressing their POV to Key Opinion Formers on sensitive topics like AI, youth + tech. I also love working with emerging brands, e.g. • a documentary filmmaking company looking for clarity on their positioning and messaging • an AI startup to solidify their brand positioning, define a tone of voice, and execute these via website and event copy • a physiotherapy chain ready to scale into a national B2C brand.
