COPYWRITING. Words that work.

It's more than words. More than facts about your product or service.

The secret is to articulate your value.

How do you even find that?

Get in touch with what your clients really love about you.

And tell that story.

That's what they value.

I know that from your perspective, immersed in your business, it's nearly impossible to find.

Even if you were looking for it.

I'll find it.

It's how your passion for your business shines through. It's a feeling between the lines.

It's heart and efficiency all rolled in together.

Social Media

We'll take all the elements that create your credibility, and use them in social media and communicating with clients

You've already got great content - let's get it working hard for you. Seamlessly.

Personal Image Branding (1)

Social Media in today's world.

Crisis Communication Response: COVID 19
Custom images, custom content

When you are in the middle of a crisis and receiving testimonials like this, it's time to acknowledge it with some special attention.

This how to use social media to build credibility with story-telling content and images. This strong visual concept and tone was created just for the client-a childcare service.

It started with a hand-written testimonial received from parents (delivered along with boxes of French pastries for the staff). And lots of good vibes.

(Crisis Communication Strategy for the client by Vicki Yen.)

Social Media Management

Social Media: CONFUSED? OVERWHELMED? Tried it but it didn't work?...

There's so many options when it comes to connecting with your dream clients.

You don't need them all.

You just need the options that work for you.

I'll take the mystery out of it for you. We'll make a plan. Identify what fits.

And get it working.

STRATEGY. It's Step One.

A bit of Big Picture Thinking.

What is the message between the lines?

Not getting the leads and type of client you want?

The worst thing is you really don't know what isn't working?

Start with a chat about your strategy: what you are doing, when, and how often. And what is the message between the lines.

Then you've got a powerful mix of communication tools and assets that you're just not using.

Time to change that.

Many small businesses simply don't know how to pull it all together to make it work. 

That's no surprise-it's a whole different skillset. (Every big organisation has a whole department of communication specialists.)

Seeing the big-picture perspective-that's my specialty.

Let's shine a light on your strengths: you're believable, relatable, credible.

Looking great.

Let's connect with the spirit of your business, and you.

This is my business, and I love to work with other small, micro and heart-centered solo businesses.

I get what your needs are. 

I can see it.

I get so excited about it.

And what you and I can do together.

Image Branding for women in business
Hi I'm Vicki Yen. Let's get you online and visible.

Why do you need Personal Image Branding?  Introducing relatable you.

You are the one who adds value to this business.

Own it.

You want your business to be more visible? More accessible? It starts with you.

Show your real, authentic self in the photos-the person your clients meet and relate to.

I'll do my photo-journalist style of shooting featuring natural light. When you're in a location you love, it's easy to feel good. And it shows.

The word "authentic" gets thrown around a lot.

Maybe you've never really liked the idea of having your photo taken (yes, like most of us, including me-I get so stiff in front of a camera!)

Find out what it's like to say:

Yes, I love that shot - that feels like me...

woman who is a small business owner
Introducing relatable you.

Everybody tells you to create "awesome content".

They just don't tell you how to do it.

Here's 5 Things to Look For.

1. Start with this thought:

So many small business owners are so immersed in the process of the business, they lose track of what their clients love about them.

I'll find it for you.

Just like your unique business, copywriting that works is a specialist skill.

I'll build that bridge between you and your audience.

 

2. Discover SEO magic.

SEO is based on the words people use to search for you.

I'll seamlessly source SEO elements and add it to your content and visual branding. We're uncovering resource gems in the process so building content is easy.

 

3. Is this the best part?

What if you can stop pushing so hard to get your message out there.

Stop spending more and more money on tools to amplify and push a message. 

 

4. Here's my TIP to save you money:

Take a step back from the promotional tools for a minute. What if you are paying to amplify a message that doesn't work?

 

5. What do you think about this idea:

The right message will draw clients to you.

The clients who really get you.

What do small business owners need to know about content?

Hello.

I'm not a techie person.

I'm a communications person.

A big picture person. A photographer coming from freelance, media and corporate writer worlds.

It means I see the details that matter as well as that big picture.

And what does that mean for you?

A beautiful, kind client said:  "Vicki really knows how to have the message speak across all dimensions".

First I'll find your core, strongest message. It's there already, just waiting for you to discover it. (And you know it's amazing what a different perspective can uncover.)

You've already got what it takes.

Next, I'll find the tools and the ways to make this refreshed approach work for you.

What are you going for? Clients who love your website.

Want to explore. Want to know more about your business and you.

And want to come back.
