"I am flabbergasted. I have never engaged with a writer who works fast and delivers excellent work on time. I have never had a brochure script, web content or a press release that I haven't had to tinker with and in some cases make wholesale changes to. Until now, that is. Brilliant - thankyou."

Robert Jarvis runs TryTemps Recruitment - a successful business that had expanded from providing temps for manufacturing companies into filling full time and temporary positions in a variety of sectors ...
"At the end of 2008, the job market collapsed. Our sales dropped by more than 50%. Our customers stayed loyal, but many stopped recruiting and had to downsize. Instead of cutting back, we decided to retrain, invest in marketing, and go after new business. We talked to Roger - and really liked his fresh, energetic approach. (We have to be good at judging people in our business.) We asked him to write the copy for a new brochure and a series of audio podcasts. He was able to take my thoughts, pick up on what makes our offer different, and then get it across in a clear, commonsense way. The copy he wrote was easy to read, engaging, and sold us really well. He also called some of our top customers and got seven great testimonial quotes. The very first time we used the brochure was when we tendered for a multi-million contract with one of the biggest recruiters of permanent staff in Birmingham. We were up against much larger competitors, and our chances seemed slim. But the new customer liked what they saw so much that within four days they put us on their preferred supplier list - and asked us to fill 56 permanent positions immediately. We couldn't have hoped for a better result. It's enabled us to demonstrate all the things we're really good at. I don't begrudge a single penny of the money we've spent on marketing. We've proved it can pay for itself many times over - more than a tenfold increase in our case. Thanks Roger - you've helped to put us right back on track. I don't give referrals like this lightly - and anyone who wants to check it out can call me on 0121 693 3322 or 07956 455 730.
