Hello, I’m Simon, an English copywriter

As an English copywriter, I write award-winning ads and market-changing strategies. I’ve got gongs for financial and pharmaceutical work, as well as consumer brands. And my work has connected with everyone from toddlers to teenagers, young mums to old dogs and rugby players to rocket scientists. I’ve won awards for being funny, for being hard-hitting, for being sensitive and for making complex things seem so simple that 84% more people wanted to buy them. One of my award-winning pieces of work was chosen by Peter Souter (2002 D&AD President) as his favourite piece from 45 years of creativity from the D&AD Annual Exhibition. I also won silver in the Best Radio Ad of All Time at the Roses awards. (The one that won gold was written by the Chairman of Judges, but hey.) When WD-40 asked me to look at their marketing after years of flat growth, I gave them to record sales. When the (already very slick and efficient) Everest window company gave me one mailer to prove myself, I increased their sales by £1 million.
