There’s a lot to be said for brevity. Take a look at Twitter, for instance. A lot can be said in 140 characters.
Over the weekend, I was reminded of the power of words when I saw
a local theater production of “Little Shop of Horrors.” It was hilarious, and the guy who stole the show was the actor who played the part of the plant, Audrey II. In a booming voice, he demanded, “FEED ME!”
And so, when I was one of a dozen people laid off today at the ad agency where I worked, two words came to mind: HIRE ME.
Here are a few more words for potential employers seeking a copywriter/email marketer/PR consultant/account manager:
- Versatile. I’ve written copy for a smorgasbord of channels, industries and clients – B2C, B2B, print, digital, you name it.
- Professional. I hold professional accreditation in PR from the Public Relations Society of America and the International Association of Business Communicators.
- Available. I can start immediately, either in the tri-state area (PA/NJ/NY) or telecommute.
So if you’re looking for a kick-ass copywriter who’s hungry for work (don’t worry, I won’t eat you alive – just your competition), post a comment below, or reach out to me on LinkedIn.
Now you’ve got a taste of my writing. Let’s see if I get a few job bites.
