Catherine Ball

Freelance journalist, Copywriter, and PR consultant in Sheffield

I am a skilled professional writer with more than 10 years experience working as a journalist for daily newspapers in the UK.

In 2012 I decided to take action to achieve a better work/life balance and left the newsroom to work for myself. Now I specialise in writing parenting features and regularly contribute to Mother and Baby magazine. I also write web copy, press releases, marketing material, blogs and articles for a wide variety of different clients from start-up businesses to major well-known companies.

You never get another chance to make a first impression. Websites are now the first port of call for many customers when it comes to deciding whether to use a business. If your web copy is poorly-written, confusing and littered with mistakes, you will lose potential clients no matter how fantastic your products and services are.

I can help your company set the right tone with engaging, original and interesting web content, which will convince potential customers you really are worth doing business with. I can also help you generate the right kind of publicity with press releases tailored to appeal to media professionals.
