Brochure Copywriting: For Digital and Print. I'll Showcase Your Products and Services in Their Best Light

An effective corporate brochure shouldn’t just inform your audience – it should persuade them too. A good brochure copywriter will highlight the features and benefits of your products while maintaining your brand’s tone of voice.

How My Brochure Copywriting Can Help You

Not only do brochures show your professionalism, but they can increase your sales. One of the most valuable benefits of brochures is that they present all your products in the one place. People are more likely to buy from you when they have all the information up-front. With a brochure, there’s no navigating away from the products, or clicking links to other pages. Printed brochures in particular are great for increasing sales as people spend more time reading the content of printed materials. And unlike with web pages, customers usually read a brochure more than once.

 

You need an expert brochure copywriter who knows how to sell on the benefits of your products, and reinfornce on the features. Structuring a corporate brochure in-house can be time consuming. And too many cooks spoil the copy. As your dedicated writing partner, I’ll put our feet in your customers’ shoes. Unlike other agencies, I focus solely on the words. I’ll put the time into researching your target audience and your competitors, so we can position your products and services effectively. I specialise in writing for the following industries:

How I Work

Before I take on any new brochure copywriting project, I like to get to know the client first. I’ll arrange an initial meeting (by telephone, email, Skype, or face-to-face) to learn more about your business and what you hope to achieve from working with us. Once I have all the particulars, I’ll create a project schedule, confirming all the deadline dates. I’ll then send you a skeleton draft of your brochure, showing what we plan on saying, and where. Once we have the structure of your brochure approved, I’ll send you a first draft. I’ll take on board all your feedback and carry out any revisions until you’re happy with how it reads.

How Much Does Brochure Copywriting Cost?

Every brochure copywriting project is different. However, I believe in being as up-front as possible when it comes to pricing. My day rate is £5o0 and I provide a per-project price, so you’ll know exactly how much the work will cost up front. Some of the factors that I consider when pricing for brochure copywriting services include:

 

  • How long the brochure will be
  • The number of words required per page
  • How much research is involved
  • Whether tone of voice guidelines are required
  • How many revisions are needed
  • The project deadline

 

To provide some context, a brochure copywriting project might look like this:

 

Initial briefing session: After completing our briefing form, I’ll arrange a one-hour phone call or Skype session discuss the specifics of the project in more detail.

 

Research: Research can involve conducting a brief competitor analysis, creating tone of voice guidelines and researching the marketplace.

 

Writing: 4 pages at around 1,000 words

 

Amendments: Typically, I offer two rounds of revisions per page. However, I always aim to please and I’m usually happy to make additional tweaks at no extra cost until you’re happy with the copy.

 

The cost for a brochure copywriting project with this scope would cost £1,500. The price would include all ongoing correspondence with the client, editing, proofreading and amendments. We’d send over each page individually to gather your feedback, adjust and approve as we go. Typically, I’d deliver all pages in two weeks from the agreed start date, assuming good client communication.
