WRITE LESS, SMILE MORE.

I know, I know. You’re busy and don’t have the time or staff to handle your writing projects. You want to focus on work, not worry about writing hassles. And, frankly, that can make even the most well-adjusted businessperson grumpy.

It might be time to let Kara save the day.

Web copy, brochures, direct mail pieces, blog entries… If you can type it, I can write it. While personable writing, catchy headlines and tasteful humor are my specialties, I write for your audience so my voice matches what they need to hear.

I deliver when I say I will. I’m smart and a fast learner so I can get up to speed on your world quickly. And I like my job enormously, have a great attitude and well, smile lots.

Ad for Bridal Magazine

category: Featured | Print | Sean O'Leary Photography | ads

Sean O’Leary Wedding Photography wanted a simple, clean ad for a run in Weddings magazine; one that showcased his photography while giving brides a tangible reason to check out his Web site. So, I created a series for his blog, “Tips for Selecting Your Wedding Photographer,” which answers the questions couples ask when looking for a wedding photographer; we promoted it with this ad.

Facebook updates

Devil’s Thumb Ranch decided to get in on the Facebook action with a dedicated Fan Page. I managed the entire process from set up, to keeping their content fresh on a daily basis, to interacting with fans while promoting events. As well, I’ve actively pursued fans through non-Facebook channels, steadily growing their base.

To see DTR’s Fan Page is action, click here.

I also manage their Twitter feed, which you can see here.

Rotating ad for Web site

category: Featured | Online | ads

I worked with Liz, a local Denver realtor, creating a series of promotions to get the word out about new Web site and blog. Because Liz specializes in up-and-coming areas she wanted her promotions to be fun and memorable, appealing to a hipper crowd.

We created the “Where in Denver is Lulu?” promotion, a series of print and Web ads that featured her dog Lulu (on a scooter) in different Denver neighborhoods. The ads ended up working as a cross-promotional tool with local restaurants, generating good buzz for both Liz and the restuarants.

You can see Liz’s full site here.

Sean wanted to promote his engagement photo shoot (a huge upgrade that brides love) while recognizing the impact of the recession on couple’s wedding budgets. We created a bold, easy-to-read banner ad to run on his Web site.
