Being a writer legitimizes my right to stick my nose into your business -
literally.
I have been writing for the advertising and marketing industry and
producing feature editorial for newspapers and periodicals for 25 years.
I'm from the old school - I believe the more versatile you are, the more
adaptable and open to new experiences you become.
I chuckle when I see ads like "Marketing Specialist" and then they ask you
to be industry specific: healthcare, automotive, retail, real estate, etc. It's
an oxymoron - marketing by its very nature requires versatility and you
should be able to tackle any project in any industry.
I am always open to learning and because I love to write, I have been
blessed with opportunities to write for every medium: radio, TV,
newspaper, magazines, websites, the Internet, email, video, direct mail,
and of course sales and marketing literature, campaigns and collateral.
From an early start writing radio spots, to planning media and managing
accounts at a Miami ad agency, I moonlighted behind the cameras at
Miami's ABC affiliate (WPLG) and even managed a small-town business
and lifestyle magazine. After being informed in 1997 my writing was “too
clever for TV", I spent 3 years working as an editor for a sports publisher
while freelancing various writing projects on the side.
In 2000, I received kudos for writing and producing a corporate marketing
video for an OEM window-manufacturing product - the byproduct of stricter
window-testing standards after Hurricane Andrew. I quickly found myself
managing a corporate marketing department and my repertoire expanded
into the Internet including websites and email commerce marketing.
I find many businesspeople do not have time to write; others are not
comfortable writing. Some people are awesome at what they do for a
living but simply don't have the experience to put into words the beauty of
their work.
Since moving to Huntsville in 2006, I have approached the technical
writing market this way: I have not written according to government
standards, but, I am very experienced at taking complex problems and
simplifying them for the lay market - for instance, I wrote a manual and a
marketing video on how to set up clean rooms, wash glass and laminate
window film onto windows during the window manufacturing process. I
have also written procedural manuals, operations manuals and if you
visit my "Journalism" page, you will see I have written about some highly
technical subjects: lunar landers, control theory, radiation hardening, etc...
In my book - those are pretty highly technical topics and I enjoyed doing
every one of them.
From a marketing perspective - I will tell a story about your product or
service, and use bright ideas and creative messaging to target your
customers!
So give me a call at 256-653-4003 or email me at
KimberlyWrites919@msn.com. You can also fill out the form below and I
will respond immediately.
I look forward to working with every one of you!
