Writing
Content writing can be a time-consuming task, particularly when you have a business to run. So why not let us do it for you? We offer two different types of content writing:
Content writing for email, blogs and websites
Creating unique, engaging copy is an important part of running any blog or website. From topical, daily news articles through to sales and marketing literature, having fresh, high-quality content is an excellent way to increase traffic to your website, raise your profile and help your business relate to its target audience.
We can offer content suggestions for blogs, emails and websites, whether you are looking to attract new business or provide great value-added communications to your existing customers.
With social media becoming an increasingly important part of online marketing, we now offer advice, ideas and tips specifically for posting content to Facebook or Twitter, helping you to push your business’s social presence.
- Blogs and website content from £20
- Business e-zine/e-mail communications from £25
Content writing for leaflets, newsletters and pamphlets
These are the more traditional methods businesses use to interact with customers and promote new or existing products and services. If you need help creating attention-grabbing headlines or find the task of writing tricky, we can help!
- Leaflet and newsletter content from £20 per leaflet
- All other documents from £30 per page
This is just a flavour of what we can do: see our other sections on writing services in London and the South East, including editing, proofreading, ghostwriting and press releases.
Editing
If you know what you want to write, but haven’t got the time to give your work the care and attention it needs, why not tip your ideas onto a piece of paper and get Word Wizard to add the sparkle? With our handy editing service, we can check your document, article or blog page to make sure it makes sense to your target audience.
Be it a first web page for your new or existing business or a client letter outlining special offers, our job is knock your first draft into shape. A consultation with you beforehand will help us get a handle on your priorities. We will take a fine-tooth comb to your grammar and spelling, and make sure the language you use is consistent and professional. We will continue to make revisions to any text until it’s just right.
- Any documents edited, from £20
Proofreading
Your content is important. Whether its a promotional leaflet, blog or press release, sending out work with spelling mistakes and grammatical errors can harm your business’s reputation. It isn’t worth the risk.
So, if you’ve already written your documents, stop! Call on us before you send anything to the printer. We may just be able to spot a mistake, and save your blushes. We’ll spend time reading and rereading what you’ve written, making sure the use of language is consistent and the grammar exemplary. We will make notes and track changes for you to alter at your own convenience.
- Blogs and business e-communications, from £5 per 100 words
- Leaflets, newsletters, pamphlets, event programmes and small booklets, from £2.50 per 100 words
Press releases
Do you have something newsworthy, such as a product launch or event that you need to promote? With 15 years’ experience of working in the media, we can help you reach out to your local news outlet, getting your story into the right hands.
Our press releases are bright and breezy, and quickly get to the point – we know instinctively which elements of your story a time-pressed journalist will want to know about. Tell us all about your event or product launch, and we will make sure the media can gain access to all the relevant contact details, images and details they need, just from one sheet of A4.
- Individual press releases from £50
- The Word Wizard Bespoke DIY Press Kit – learn how to write your own press releases and run your own media campaigns with our kit, designed just for you! Price on application.
Ghost writing
Are you writing your memoirs or have you written a book and would like a professional opinion before approaching a publisher? Are you daunted by the prospect of committing your words to an e-book? Word Wizard can help!
As well as straightforward proofreading at special rates for longer work such as a novel, we offer a transcription service for any words you have committed to tape.
If you’re in need of more in-depth help, we can analyse your use of character, dialogue, plot and structure and prepare you a comprehensive report. Prices are available on application.
Consultancy
As well as writing and editing on behalf of our clients, we are committed to promoting the wider benefits of improving literacy to businesses and the community. We can give talks or run seminars about the presentation of documents and emails, and the power of good communications.
If you are interested in inviting us into your organisation, please get in touch. We can tailor sessions to suit employees, jobseekers or volunteers.
Video and podcasting
Something we love to do at Word Wizard is get out in the field and see how our clients work at close quarters – and it’s something your customers will love to see too! So, if you fancy having a video or podcast made about your business, invite us down!
We can film you at work, interview people who are key to your success and then edit everything together into a slick little production. A 3-minute short is perfect for inclusion on YouTube or embedding on your own site.
Podcasts are another great way to engage with your audience, and adding regular new content for customers and clients to download and listen to in their own time is value added to your business. It’s fun coming up with ideas too: you can offer a Q&A programme; tips and hints based on your area of expertise; thought-provoking interviews; round table discussions; or even ‘a day in the life’ of your business. You are limited only by a lack of imagination! Businesses offer podcasts as welcome gifts, as extras for their website or as part of an enhanced business subscription package.
If you are interested in any of these London creative services, please contact us and we will be delighted to discuss your needs further.
