Collaborative Website Copy

Get your copy website-ready without the investment of a full done-for-you project

Collaborative website copy is perfect if you don’t want to book a full, done-for-you project, but still want professional support

You recognize the importance of your website messaging, and also aren’t afraid to roll up your sleeves and write an imperfect first draft (with guidance, of course).

Allow me to guide you! I’ll take some of the pressure off them by providing pre-writing structure and support, plus post-writing edits.

How it works

 

Step 1: Questionnaire & strategy call

To clarify your messaging, get a sense of your voice, and determine your website structure. Because knowing WHICH parts need to go WHERE is one of the trickiest steps in writing your website copy.

Step 2: Website copy guide

Within a week of our call, I’ll create a customized template with personalized key points to guide your first draft, plus a checklist of website copy essentials.

This goal is to get you out of your head, beat the blank page, and make sure the structure of your copy actually works with website design. I’m also just a DM or email away if you need some motivation, input, or support while you draft!

Step 3: Website copy refinements

Once you've fleshed out your guide, I'll provide up to 1 hour of edits/rewriting per page. I’ll pay attention to clarity, emotional impact, conciseness, order of information, voice, and making sure it doesn’t sound like AI. If more editing is needed, that can be done at $120 CAD/hour.

Step 4: Wrap-up call/video

As needed to cover any lingering questions or make final tweaks.

$1000 CAD + sales tax (if you’re in Canada) for Home, About, Services, and Contact (or simliar).

I’ll provide a custom quote if you need a larger or smaller website!

Investment

Add on keyword research or brand strategy

Just because you’re DIYing doesn’t mean you can’t cover your SEO essentials or nail your brand foundation.

Brain vomit ➡️ structured website copy that captures your genius and voice

Heck yeah

“WOW. You took my brain vomit and made it into something readable AND you captured my voice. I was really struggling with tone and voice.

Thank you so much! I just left a few little comments and I am wondering what your thoughts are. Otherwise, I feel really good about it.”

— Paige Hollingsworth, Collaborative Copy Client, Psychotherapist

“It was a really valuable experience for me to go through this process. Thank you endlessly for your guidance and support throughout. I went through everything, and I think it looks really good - I even cut a few things (look at me go!). You're extremely skilled at what you do, and it means a lot to me to have you review this and provide your feedback and expertise.”

— Alex Gosselin, Collaborative Copy Client, Psychotherapist

“How much time do I get to write my draft?”

I recommend a 2-week deadline after I deliver your website copy guide. This gives you a good chunk of time to pick away at it, without letting time drag on forever (which can cause more overthinking!). That said, I’ll always make sure we’re mutually agreeing on the timeline and if you need a couple extra days, we can make that happen.
