Brochure for Propel Workforce

Client: Propel Consult

Background: Propel Workforce is digital assistant technology, or intelligent automation. The technology sits on your computer, completely out of sight, performing mundane and repetitive tasks round the clock and with complete accuracy. While historically only large businesses could afford intelligent automation, today Propel Workforce makes it available to all.

Propel Workforce is a subsidiary of Propel Consult, the company that designs and installs the digital assistants. Dominic and Mark, Propel’s founders, wanted a brochure to explain the technology and its benefits to all businesses, whatever their size.

What I wrote: I wrote the brochure and, as Mark and Dominic were so pleased with it, have gone on to write case studies and articles for Propel Consult. Part of the project’s success is down to Nerys Evans of My Creative Den, the brilliant designer who brings everything I write for Propel to life.

What they said: The first draft went straight to Nerys for design as Mark and Dominic’s feedback was, “We’re very happy with this.”

Multiple marketing materials for Ridgeway Science

Client: Ridgeway Science

Agency: LimeGreen Marketing

Background: Ridgeway Science makes a test kit, P4 Rapid, that confirms if a cow is in heat. Because it’s so accurate, quick and easy to use, P4 Rapid saves time and money for vets and farmers. However, sales of the kit were not as good as they could be.

In 2014 Ridgeway Science took on a new head of global sales and marketing, Cheryl Barnes. Through LimeGreen Marketing Cheryl updated all the marketing materials for P4 Rapid. As I’d worked with Cheryl before she introduced me to Katie at LimeGreen so I could write the copy.

What I wrote: Website, leaflet targeting farmers, leaflet targeting vets, sales letter to vets, packaging materials, three video scripts.

What they said: “If you need help with words, then you need Sarah! But then most businesses need Sarah in my opinion. She’s the best copywriter I’ve worked with by miles and has an incredible knack for getting under the skin of a business and finding exactly the right words to sum it up and promote it to potential / existing clients in a compelling way. No business should be without a good copywriter and Sarah is the best. HIGHLY recommended. Get in touch with Sarah today. You won’t regret it!”

Cheryl Barnes, Head of Global Sales & Marketing, Ridgeway Science


Website for Four-Sided Triangle

Client: Four-Sided Triangle

Background: Four-Sided Triangle was a network of freelancers operating as a virtual agency. Although the network isn’t active at the moment I’ve included this project as it worked so well – in part because I was able to work closely with a brilliant designer, Tim Masters. Together we developed the look and feel for the site.

What they said: “I wanted to let you know what great feedback we have had on the site so far and I’ve just put the phone down to another person – the third in three days – who has specifically commented on how much they like the tone, language and message.”

Andy Ormiston, Director, Four-Sided Triangle

Download report for Miticom

Client: Miticom Ltd

Background: Miti Ampoma is an award-winning business communications professional. She is also author of the acclaimed business book The Innovative Communicator: putting the soul back into business communication. 

Miti helps business leaders and aspiring business leaders communicate in English with confidence, impact and presence, even when English isn’t their first language. And she makes clear the benefits you reap when you put integrity and humanity at the heart of your communication.

Miti wanted a report she could send to prospective clients to explain what she does, why she does it and the advantages they’ll enjoy after completing her Innovative Communicator Accelerator Programme.

Miti was an absolute joy to work with. We planned the content together, then I wrote it, taking inspiration from her book and the reference material she provided. Pete Seymour from Seymour Creative did the design and layout, including all the infographics.

You can see a few pages from the report here.

What they said: “You really get me, for which I’m immensely grateful. You’re a great writer. It’s just what I was hoping for.”

Client: Cloudfinity

Background: Cloudfinity were referred to me by an existing client.
