Before You Reach Out
Answers to common questions about working together.
What’s your typical project timeline?
Strategy projects typically take 6-10 weeks. Copywriting projects vary widely—from a few days for headlines to several weeks for comprehensive website copy. Rush projects can sometimes be accommodated.
How do you charge?
For strategy work, I quote fixed fees based on scope and deliverables. For copywriting, I can work on fixed fees or day rates depending on the project. Speaking and workshops are quoted based on format, duration, and preparation required.
Do you work with agencies or direct clients?
Both! I work directly with brands and businesses, as well as partnering with agencies on client projects.
What’s your minimum project size?
I don’t have a strict minimum, but to make economic sense for both of us, most projects start around R10,000. Smaller consultations or reviews can be done at hourly rates.
Do you offer retainer arrangements?
Yes, for ongoing strategic support or regular copywriting needs, retainer arrangements can work well. Get in touch to discuss.
What industries do you work in?
I have deep experience in automotive, financial services, FMCG, luxury, and telecommunications—but good strategy and copy principles apply across industries. If you have an interesting challenge, I’m interested.
Not ready to commit to a project?
Let’s start with a conversation. I offer 30-minute consultation calls to discuss your challenges and explore whether I can help.
Book a ConsultationNeed something quick?
Sometimes you just need a second opinion on a headline, a quick review of messaging, or advice on positioning. I offer hourly consulting for quick-turn needs.
