OBM | Ridiculously Organised Tech-Loving Extraordinaire | Crisp Copy Class Alumni

Tell us about the moment you decided to start your own business. What was the catalyst?

My business started by accident. I was made redundant a week before I found out I was pregnant. I couldn’t get a job due to my ‘situation’ so I decided to do my own thing. I took all of the skills I had gathered over the years and offered them to overwhelmed entrepreneurs. The rest is history.

What do you utterly love about running a business?

I love being able to have a business that is flexible to me and being able to choose who I work with. The biggest bonus though is the work uniform – fluffy socks anyone?

What drives you bonkers about marketing, branding, and businessing?

I am so sick of the belief that you have to push and work really hard to create a succesful business. It is simply not true. Create a brand that truly reflects you, know who your ideal client is, show up with a belief in yourself and your service and the rest will come.

What prompted you to sign up for the Crisp Copy Class?

I had been stalking Jay for a while and love her fun style. I decided to sign up to hone my copywriting skills so that I could further serve my clients.

What has the Crisp Copy Class helped you achieve, that you wouldn’t have been able to DIY?

A clearer understanding of how to write to appeal to an audience.

What’s your favourite piece of copy you wrote in the CCC?

I love my About page.

Tell us a randomly delicious thing about you not already all over the internet?

I was born in Africa.
I can lick my elbow.
I have books stashed all over the house.

What’s next for you and your brand and your business?

I am gearing up for a full rebrand in January 2020 under my own name. I will be offering Holistic Business Management services, launching a tech lab and offering coaching and mentoring.

Go On, Fire Your Copywriter

​As a copywriter who doesn't have a backup plan, I'm not afraid of AI - for a couple reasons: 1. I'm an editor Some folk are not. They prefer writing from scratch, they're true concept creators. They don't like to take what someone (or something else) has come up with...
