Copywriting training and coaching

Do you need to write subscriptions copy, membership communications, sales materials, letters, web pages, emails, business reports or proposals? Over the last 15 years, we have developed a series of practical, informative and game-changing workshops, drawing on our experience as professional copywriters.

These copywriting workshops are delivered by our MD, Andy Maslen. Some are open courses; others are available for in-house delivery, tailored to your business, your team, your specific needs.

Here are five of our workshops...

  1. Copywriting essentials
  2. Direct marketing for print and web
  3. Copywriting for the web
  4. Business writing
  5. Copywriting masterclass - from the psychology of influence to storytelling.

These practical sessions are a highly effective way to learn. And to practise the essential techniques professional copywriters rely on every day.

We've trained over 1,100 managers from blue-chip organisations as diverse as The Economist, News International, The London Stock Exchange, the DTI, Loyalty Management Group, Kogan Page, the RSPB and the BSI.

Five benefits of our copywriting training...

  1. Write clearer, more concise and more compelling copy

  3. Become skilled at employing tone of voice and style to achieve your marketing goals
