Welcome to my business copywriting portfolio with links to examples of my work for clients and voluntary groups in Norfolk and beyond. This includes website copy; brochures, leaflets and posters; articles and blog posts; short white papers; and copy-editing and proofreading.
I’ve used British or American English depending on the target audience. Copyright is assigned to business clients, but I retain the right to share work here if it’s in the public domain elsewhere.
Website Copy
Home, About, Services, FAQ and Contact pages for Leman Language Services, a language training and business communication services company. Working with the director and IT Manager, I wrote the original copy for the website launch and revised the Home and About pages as part of the rebranding.
“Tracy came on board when I was thinking about setting up a business. Tracy helped me build my brand and wrote the copy for my entire website. She meets deadlines promptly and works in a collaborative manner. Tracy is always up for a challenge, like trying out new technologies. I highly recommend Tracy for her exceptional copyediting and copywriting skills, professionalism, expertise as well as her commitment to her client’s business.” – LARA EPINEY TAKACHE, DIRECTOR LEMAN LANGUAGE SERVICES

“Excellent in every way – Tracy is a professional writer who is also conscientious and well rounded! She was able to quickly understand the scientific angle I was looking for – and asked questions that I had not even thought of – this really helped me to clarify the focus of it. She writes with the depth and breadth of understanding of a topic that I really needed.
