Retail copywriting

As an experienced retail copywriter, I craft words that don’t just describe products; they spark interest and curiosity. With years of experience supporting businesses of all sizes, I’m here to help you reach more customers.
Turn your products into must-haves
Think about the last time you bought something new. It’s likely that you chose the product because it made your life easier. solved a problem or made you feel good. Great copy taps into these emotions, turning browsers into buyers.

My copy makeover (Before and after)
Here’s some sample copy I created for the Southampton BID that supports local retailers and attracts new investment into the city.
Original content from the client
In our first BID term we focussed on improving the trading environment to become a place for business to thrive. We delivered saving schemes for our members, supported investment opportunities and developed ways to retain skills and talent within the city. Your business is our business, which is why we think it’s critical that we provided a united voice for our members to lobby for matters than mean the most to you.
In our next BID term we plan to focus on understanding and preventing the root causes of crime and anti-social behaviour in the city centre to protect our businesses – your safety is our priority.

We’ve worked tirelessly to ensure that Southampton is a place where businesses thrive. The BID has delivered saving schemes for our members, supported investment opportunities and introduced new ways to retain skills and talent within the city.
We’ve provided a voice for businesses, lobbying on issues that matter to you and ensuring that your views are presented on all local projects.
We will build on our progress in tackling the root causes of crime and anti-social behaviour in the city centre to protect our businesses.
I love working with small businesses and high-street brands. Here are a few examples of my work as a retail copywriter.
