Closing the Execution Gap

Closing the Execution Gap

Innovation in Action:
Our Mission Revealed

You've presented the proposal, and the client has signed. Now the campaign has to deliver.

I work with agencies when they need senior copywriting support to turn strategy into human-written campaign messaging, funnels and conversion-driven assets.

I plug directly into your team, maintain strategic continuity from brief to execution, and deliver work that performs in market.

I've written an article on how I bridge strategy and execution. You can find it here.

I worked with Amy as her copywriter and marketer for three years. This is where I became a strategic copywriter. In Amy's words:

"Paul has a deep understanding of marketing strategy. He knows how real businesses run. What really grabbed me was his uncanny ability to get right to the heart of  a problem, and come up with a brilliant solution that is actually workable, not some 'consultant fantasy'.” 

It helped that Amy herself was both a senior copy chief and had six successful businesses to her name.

Our most successful campaign was a 12-month LinkedIn lead-gen strategy to sell a small-group training program at $8k a seat. We doubled Amy's LinkedIn followers with zero outreach and sold that program out.

During our work together, Amy's business and her brand grew from primarily one-to-one business coaching, to a business offering high four-figure programs, a four-figure online curse, two private pay-walled communities and significant expansion of her brand visibility.

PROJECT

Long-term lead generation funnel for financial services to doctors

TriageMD approached me with a very specific problem they wanted to solve.

They were already talking to residents and fellows at training seminars in teaching hospitals.

These encounters were well received by the students, but the gap between those students graduating and being in a position to hire TriageMD was several years away.

Triage wanted me to help them turn that first encounter into a more significant relationship that could be nurtured during those years.

We converted the training session they were offering into a financial literacy awareness seminar.

At the end of that session, attendees were offered a free financial literacy course, delivered as email micro lessons over the next 12 months.

That was followed by a less frequent but high-value series of emails that were relevant to them at their stage of their medical careers.

When we ran the new presentations, take up of the offer was 90%+ and email opens were 50%+ after the first three months.

We are still several years away from seeing if these leads convert to clients.

"[Paul] helped us to understand our marketplace better by interviewing actual prospective clients. More importantly, he's helped us optimize our prospect funnel, by making clear how we can use marketing to attract those prospects who may want what we're offering without cluttering our lists with those who won't.

His perspective is that marketing shouldn't simply return the maximum number of unqualified names, but rather actively encourage and qualify the right prospects while weeding out the wrong ones. This protects our time and attention."

PROJECT

Brand Messaging project across three brands

Education Intelligence reached out to me with a request to help them create a brand-messaging bible for their parent brand, Education Intelligence, and its two child brands, TeacherTap and ParentTap.

The challenge addressing voice and messaging drift as each brand grew. The client wanted to create continuity and codify it across three entities, each of which served very different cohorts in very different ways.

The work required a lot of conversations to dig into what the company wanted to achieve for each brand. There were also several discussions around the company's and its founders' values, something that was core to the work they did.

Lastly, we need to look at how all three brands could be represented in a way that would make sense to both clients and potential investors.

"Working with Paul was like getting a blood transfusion for our organisation. He was able to quickly work out what we needed, before injecting the right words, ideas and stories, all in the right order, so that our copy is cohesive, snappy and we are telling the real story of our brand. 

Paul is enthusiastic, reliable and a pleasure to work with. Even when he is sending homeworks, you want to do them! It galvanised us to have better conversations as business leaders and to understand where our value lies."
