Every so often we need to take stock of our lives, taking a look at what’s working, what’s not. So in that spirit, I present the Top 11 Reasons why you shouldn’t hire me to help with your next writing project, ad & marketing campaign, or overall communications strategy.
(listed in no particular order)
1. You like using the same old, tired advertising jargon & vague messaging.
2. You’d rather pay a whole lot more to a big PR firm that looks at your business as just another account.
3. You’re not interested in generating free & positive media exposure.
4. You like playing it safe.
5. You’re afraid to try new things.
6. You don’t like authentic & conversational copy.
7. You like writing full of buzz words and cliches.
8. You’ve already embraced new social media & marketing techniques.
9. Your company is fully staffed & employees have plenty of time to take on new projects.
10. You have lots of time on your hands & would rather focus on writing copy yourself, instead of running your business.
11. You don’t need someone to make your life easier.
