Writing that builds relationships

Feeling Adrift?

Your communications efforts need an anchor, a way to relate your message to your audience’s work and personal experiences. I can help you secure that relationship, with writing that allows you to build new ties to your customers and readerships.

Hard copy and online content
My name is Chuck Ross and I’m a freelance writer and editor living on Cape Cod and working… well, everywhere. With more than 20 years’ experience, I’ve helped a lot of individuals and companies tell their stories. And, with more than a decade’s experience writing for online media, I also have the savvy to help you tell your story worldwide.
I pride myself on being able to find a story worth telling in almost any industry - whether it’s the new market for household media centers, the energy opportunities available beneath our feet, or the inherent friskiness of a particular brand of cat food. Writing and editing services include:

  • Feature and column writing - under my byline or yours
  • Brochure and other print-related marketing copywriting
  • Web copywriting
  • Email newsletter production

Website consulting
But being successful in today’s online outlets can require more than good writing. I also can help with the big-picture strategy and nitty-gritty details that can help differentiate your offerings from those of others in your market, including:

  • Web-content strategy consulting
  • Competitive content analysis
  • Current-site content audits
  • Nomenclature and style-guide development

Cape Cod location, national capabilities
I may be based on Cape Cod, one of the country’s Easternmost peninsulas, but I work with clients across the U.S. So look through this site and browse the samples I’ve included. Think about the stories you have to tell - the launch of your new business in a small brochure or website, a summary of industry conditions in an email newsletter or a bylined viewpoint article for a trade publication. Then cast your anchor in my direction with a phone call or email. Together, we’ll steer your business toward the readers - and customers - you want to reach.
