"Working with Sally and Artisan enabled me to move critical projects forward during a staffing challenge. Sally is productive, strategic and a team player. She possesses superior writing and communication skills. She's hardworking, trustworthy, highly motivated, thorough, thoughtful and does what it takes to get a job well done. I was so impressed by the copywriting and communications project management work on our DinoTracks exhibit that I look forward to hiring her again. Best of all, working with her is great fun!"
Writing furiously for a good cause
Just finished up my contribution to CreateAThon 2008, an event that my good friends over at smith&jones in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, look forward to every year. It's a 24-hour marathon of creative work for deserving not-for-profits, fueled by caffeine, food, cameraderie, talent and a community spirit.
As most folks know, I have a soft spot for not-for-profit marketing. After all, I lived it for several years. I've experienced firsthand the mantra of so much to do and so little resources. So participating in the CreateAThon was a no-brainer. (It's also why I offer special not-for-profit project rates for qualified organizations and why I take on a pro-bono charity project every year myself. Interested? Let me know.)
Now that my piece-- brochure copy for a Southern Massachusetts land trust-- has been completed, I'm looking forward to a good night's sleep, but I'll be thinking of my friends pulling an all-nighter. I'm looking forward to seeing all of the great work produced this year!
