New Orleans is no stranger to disaster

COVID-19 jerks New Orleanians violently back to another time where lives were changed overnight: restaurants closed, Bourbon was empty, and we had to work remote for weeks.

For now, I’m grateful and fortunate to still have full-time job, but many of my fellow colleagues, friends, and neighbors are not. So many places that have become my homes are bleeding and their employees wondering what next week or next month is going to mean for them. I’ve been giving friends food and other help when I can, but as I’ve watched friend after friend after friend walk to the guillotine, I’ve been trying to think of a way I can help… that was actually scalable.

So here it is.

The forest through the trees

Let’s focus on the road ahead because this is eventually going to end. Let’s hit the ground running together.

If you’re in the service industry, I’m here to help you get back on your feet. Here’s how I can help:

Want to get back to what you were doing? I’ll touch up your resume, help with your business card design, or review your portfolio so you’re ready to hit the ground running with this madness stops.

Want to try something new? I can help you create a content strategy for a new project, outline a website, edit copy for a new product, or overhaul your resume for a new venture completely.

Need something else? I’ve got a lot more up my sleeve - let’s talk.

There is no fee for anyone in the service industry trying to get back on their feet.

If you’re a business who is looking to the future and could use some marketing, copywriting, or branding help to get you there, I’m a seasoned and creative Digital Marketing Manager and can help your business grow and adapt in this crisis.

Got a website? I can help you with copywriting, optimizing it for search engines, help redesign it for better UI/UX, competitive research, ghost writing, email marketing strategy and much more.

Got an idea or product? I can help you brand it, come up with a logo, colors, social, website, come up with t short designs - the works!

Need something else? I have a ton of experience and connections in the marketing world and can get you the help you need (even if it’s not from me).

For anyone outside of this impacted group, my fee is $40 an hour - $35 of which goes directly to someone impacted by COVID-19. The other $5 per hour goes towards paying myself or another marketing and branding colleague for their time.

Other ways you can help

You don’t have to get copywriting, marketing, or branding services to help. Share this with anyone you know that could use some free help with their resume - or anyone that could use some marketing or branding help to grow their business in these troubling times.

Additionally, if you want to make a donation, 100% of it will go to people in the service industry in the New Orleans area - just use the hashtag #WritingAWrongCOVID19.

If you have a high school student home for the foreseeable future or you, yourself missing the end of the semester and looking for some hands-on marketing, business, and leadership experience give me a call.

Want to donate some of your skills? Get in touch.

We’ll get through this. This is going to end. Stay safe & be kind to each other.
