I’m a Charlotte, NC based Sales Enablement Writer | Freelance Copywriter and Ghostwriter. I am an RFP response specialist and a member of the Association of Proposal Management Professionals. What does that all mean? It means I not only write about sales enablement, but the copy and content I write is also part of and contributes to my client's sales enablement. That includes LinkedIn Profile Writing and LinkedIn Profile Makeovers to help modern salespeople connect with the modern buyer. I write about best sales practices, sales acceleration, social selling and how my past experiences have shaped my present Sales 2.0 philosophy and content process. I leverage my 25+ years in sales and on Wall Street to create the best, most authoritative sales enablement content and copy around. Because of this, I write kick*ss copy, blog posts, and LinkedIn profiles that draw people to your website/service/product and convert them into paying customers. Everything is a funnel - and you need good copy to move your prospects through it. You want more traffic? You want more engagement? You want a well thought out plan to get your content in front of your target market and make them take action? You want copy that converts? You want sales emails that create so much emotion and desire that your prospect can’t help but reach out to you? Are you still reading? That's the power of compelling copy. Oh, I also specialize in writing LinkedIn Profiles to help you stand out on LinkedIn, position you as an authority, boost your personal brand and help you to be found by your target audience. If you want an optimized LinkedIn profile that has qualified buyers scrambling to do business with you, I'm your guy.
