  • Email copy — flows and campaigns.
  • Ad copy — tested variants.
  • Blog & SEO content — briefed and written.
  • Product & sales copy — sharp.
  • Editing — polished and consistent.
The actual work

A week in the role

The week is a queue of briefs: a landing page, an email sequence, three ad variants, a case study, a batch of product descriptions. Each one written to the client's voice, in Australian spelling, with claims kept to what the business can actually back up.

The taskWhat that actually involves
Landing page copy

Writes the page from the brief: a headline that names the offer, a subhead that qualifies the reader, proof section, objection handling, and one call to action repeated at the points where people decide.

Email sequence drafts

Drafts welcome, nurture, abandoned cart and re-engagement sequences as a set — each email with a subject line, preview text and a single job — so they read in order rather than repeat each other.

Ad copy variants

Produces headline and description variants for responsive search ads to character limits, and separate hooks for Meta primary text, so the media buyer has genuinely different angles to test rather than synonyms.

Blog and article drafts

Writes to the SEO brief — target query, headings, word range, internal links — in the client's voice, with the answer near the top rather than buried under an introduction nobody reads.

Case studies and testimonials

Turns interview notes or a transcript into a case study: the situation, what was done, what changed, quoted in the customer's own words, and sent back to that customer for written approval before use.

Product and service descriptions

Writes descriptions at scale for Shopify or WooCommerce: specifications in a scannable block, benefits in plain language, sizing and compatibility stated, and no claim the supplier data does not already support.

Tone of voice guide

Documents the voice — words the business uses and avoids, sentence length, how formal to be with each audience, worked before-and-after examples — so freelancers and staff write consistently without the founder rewriting every draft.

Claim substantiation flags

Marks any pricing comparison, guarantee, environmental or performance claim in a draft and asks the client for the evidence or legal sign-off before it goes near a published page — the client decides what can be claimed.

Sales and proposal copy

Rewrites capability statements, proposal boilerplate and tender responses so they answer the question asked instead of describing the company, and cuts the paragraphs that say nothing while keeping the word limit in view.

Website copy rewrites

Rewrites existing pages that read as feature lists: reorders sections around what the visitor needs in order to decide, tightens the copy, and hands the developer a marked-up document showing exactly what replaces what.

Scripts for video and audio

Writes to-camera and voiceover scripts with timings, spoken rhythm rather than written sentences, and on-screen text called out separately so the editor knows what appears when and the presenter reads it aloud without stumbling.

Proofing and Australian style

Proofs everything before it ships: Australian spelling, consistent capitalisation of product names, date and phone formats, GST stated where prices appear, and the same terminology used across the campaign and the site it points at.

Questions

Frequently asked

How much does a copywriter cost?
From $14/hr + GST for a full-time, dedicated team member — roughly $29K a year against $95K–$115K all-in for the local equivalent once you add super, leave, payroll tax, software and a desk. No placement fee, no setup fee, no recruitment retainer: you pay from the day they start, for hours worked, and interviewing candidates costs nothing. Specialist roles sit a little higher. Run your numbers →
How fast can they start?
Typically 14 days from your discovery call to day one. In the first week we source and screen against your brief; you get three matched profiles and interview whoever you like. Once you choose, we handle the offer, the contract, equipment and connectivity checks, and induct them on our side before they reach you. Specialist roles — developers, NDIS claims, anything needing niche software — can take a week longer, because we won't pad a shortlist just to hit a date.
What if the fit isn't right?
You're covered twice over. If it's clearly wrong by day five, your first week is refunded in full. After that, a free replacement any time — new shortlist, new interviews, no second fee, because there was never a first one. Before it gets that far, talk to us: our HR manager will work through it with you and the team member, since most problems turn out to be an unclear process rather than the wrong person, and a fortnight of coaching usually fixes it. Replacing someone is the last resort, not the first move.
Is there a minimum term?
Three months, then month to month. It's the same runway you'd give a new local hire to learn your systems, your clients and your standards — and the team members who get a fair run are the ones who stay for years. There are no exit penalties at any point, and if the issue is the person rather than the role, the first-week refund and free replacement cover that separately.
How do you handle confidentiality?
The same way you'd treat any remote team member. Every placement signs an NDA and a confidentiality clause before day one, and they work inside your systems — your email, your CRM, your file storage — so you control what they can see and can revoke access instantly. No client data is stored on our side.
What stays with you, and what goes to them?
They take the recurring, process-driven part of the copywriter role — the work that happens the same way every week and eats your day. Judgement calls, client relationships, anything requiring your licence, sign-off or authority stay with you. The clients who get the most out of a copywriter hand over a defined process and keep the decisions, rather than handing over the whole function and hoping. On the discovery call we'll map which tasks fall on which side of that line before you commit to anything.
How do I hand the work over without losing weeks to training?
Record yourself doing the task once and talk through it as you go — a fifteen-minute screen recording beats a written manual every time, and your copywriter will turn it into a documented process you both work from. Expect the first fortnight to be shadowing and checking, then steadily less. If you have nothing documented, that's normal and it's not a blocker: we'll help you decide what to record first, and your account manager checks in through the whole ramp-up.
