Valerie Smith – Writer, Pilot, and Flight Instructor

I’m Valerie Smith, professional content writer, and Upwork Freelancer. I will write your website content, articles and blog posts so you don’t have to.   Want regular posts to your company’s Facebook page? Need a press release?  I can do that too. 

I have been writing and doing marketing consulting since 2008.  Law firms, businesses, and professionals have turned to me for press releases, website copy, targeted websites, blog posts and more. Whether your goal is to make the office phone ring, generate more traffic to your website, or have your choice of customer leads to cherrypick, I will help you unleash the untapped potential of your business. 

In addition to being a writer, I am a commercial pilot, aircraft dispatcher and mom. I work for a major U.S. airline  But I’ve always loved writing, and helping individuals and companies realize their untapped potential by engaging more with potential and existing clients. 

Content marketing is different in 2021. When someone visits your website or blog, or scrolls through your Facebook post,  you have a mere few seconds to capture their attention and engage.  The competition is fierce and old strategies of loading landing pages with keyword-stuffed content just doesn’t work.

If you are looking for consistent content for your website, engaging copy that will convert website visitors to customers, or a professional voice for your business, contact me today. I will help you find a solution tailored to your goals, budget and needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

• Is there more that you could be doing with your business, but aren’t?

• Are your customers out there, but you don’t know how to connect with them?

• Do you have valuable professional experience, but your customers (and potential customers) don’t know about it?

• Do you have skills that aren’t being utilized?

No matter what you’re doing, it’s likely you could be doing more. Publishing more, engaging more, promoting more. That’s where I come in.  I’ll start by helping you identify your goals. Maybe you already know what your goals are, or maybe you realize there’s so much more that you can do.  There are lead sources and income streams you haven’t tapped, because you haven’t discovered them yet.
