Experienced B2B Copywriter and Creative Content Strategist
If you want a copywriter who will challenge your briefs with new ideas and creative flair, you're in the right place! (portfolio at danmccalla.co.uk) Having written across a variety of sectors including IT, manufacturing, telecoms finance, social media, automotive and more, I'm an adaptable and hard-working copywriter ready to take on any job. Emails, landing pages, blogs, infographics, whitepapers, case studies, social media posts, creative concept ideas... you name it, I can do it! My greatest strength is turning complex subject matter into accessible copy that's easy for any reader to engage with. And I don't do the bare minimum of 'ticking the boxes' of your briefs - I go much further than that. I love to think differently.
