Hi, I’m William, your English copywriter in the Netherlands. That’s enough about me, let’s talk about you. You are someone who needs high-impact copy delivered at speed. You need someone who can pick up a brief and run with it – in the direction you choose. And if you don’t know the direction, you need someone who will explore the options with you. I can do all that for you, and more. With more than 20 years of experience, I’ve conceived, written and produced almost every marcom tool you can think of. Mainly for B2B customers but also for consumer clients such as Maxi-Cosi, Marantz and Philips.
