Commissions & Content
We produce articles that connect with people and drive sales
SEO optimised content is king and enables brands to connect with, engage and influence prospects and customers through creative story telling. It’s about adding value to your proposition and building relationships: people are naturally drawn to brands that share their values and tell a story which resonates. Storytelling lies at the heart of every successful brand, because it’s only through storytelling that we create the holy grail of marketing communications – both rational and emotional brand engagement.
As a freelance writer Liz has contributed to some of the best travel and lifestyle magazines and websites on the market, edited luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent’s customer magazine, Sundowner, as well as providing opinion pieces and advice on all things travel to a wide range of websites and publications.
