Tell me what you're trying to say.
The more I know about the brief, the sharper the first reply. A sentence about the project is fine; a whole brief is better. I answer everything within two working days.
Before you write
What does a typical engagement cost?
Most projects land between £2k and £12k depending on scope. Naming and taglines are fixed-fee; voice and long-form are usually scoped in phases so you can stop after the first if it isn't working. It won't be a surprise on the invoice.
Do you work with agencies?
Often. I white-label happily and I'm used to slotting into an existing creative team. If you need me to stay off the credits, that's fine — the work is yours.
How many rounds of edits?
Two rounds are built into every project, which is almost always plenty. If a brief genuinely shifts, we'll re-scope honestly rather than pretend the original still fits.
Can you write it by Friday?
Sometimes. Rush work is possible for small, well-defined pieces at a rush rate. For anything voice-defining, good copy needs a weekend to sit — and I'll tell you so.
