This is your free pass to throw the word "professional" out of your vocabulary.
(in fact, that's kind of my whole thing)
Look, I'm not saying have a free-for-all and drop decades of lure on me, but, a patched together LinkedIn-style bio is lulling me to sleep when I want to be hiring you!
COPYWRITING FOR SERVICE PROVIDERS, founders, and creative businesses ready to say f*ck it to the marketing 'rulebook'.
Because when you start with connection first, selling feels (and is) that much easier.
When you talk to your community like real people instead of having your website copy sound like a buzzword-filled marketing robot, they can feel the difference.
I get it. Each time you open a draft, it's almost like you forget that when we strip everything down, we're just humans talking to other humans. So, if you're spiraling over showing up 'the right way', I think we should have a little chat.
Hi, I'm Delia!
Starting with professional credentials is not my nature, I figured you got that by now. One of my favorite things about running my own business is getting the freedom to choose exactly how I want to show up.
Dog and cat mom, will sing every RHCP song with you, probably sweating at spin class, chronically forgets to reply to texts (we're working on it), will never ever say no to a sweet treat (especially if it involves Taharka Bros), and love to be the first one to start up a conversation. Social anxiety? Never heard of her. Now that we have that out of the way, let's get down to business.
spending way too much on iced lattes, TESTING MY GREEN THUMB, probably in the trader joe's snack aisle.
So, what's the special sauce?
(AKA - WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT THAN EVERYONE ELSE YOU'RE LOOKING AT)
i've had my hands in almost every form of marketing.
01.
Agency, in-house, go-to-market (wayyy too corporate for my liking), and down each path you can think of - socials, paid ads, SEO, branding, and so much more.
Through all of it, I've become a firm believer that you're messaging is the foundation every other touchpoint flows through, so I made it my job!
MY CLIENTS DESCRIBE ME VIA EMOJI AS: 💬👂✍️🙂↕️ + ✨📈🤍👩🏻💻
02.
(Along with the runner up ☕️, I can't blame them). You don't need to have everything figured out, because so much of this work is articulating the gems that are already hidden in your brand.
Here for the squirreling, the brain dumps, the 20-minute tangents, the passion, and so much more to help you verbalize your impact (and it's going to be damn great).
YOU GET PERSONALITY-PACKED COPY WITHOUT SACRIFICING SEARCHABILITY.
03.
Remember when I said I've worked in basically every marketing subset? As a former web designer who found her special interest in SEO, a website that sounds amazing but functions poorly frankly just ... isn't allowed here.
EDUCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE PROCESS.
04.
Whether you're a wordsmith, or the thought of opening your Google Docs again is making you want to yeet yourself out of a window, I can't speak for you forever (unless you hire me on retainer 👀).
You can bet nothing makes me happier than being a guide, walking you through the why behind the work, and making sure you feel confident as hell carrying it out into the world.
Non-negotiables on our journey together:
I WORK WITH KIND PEOPLE BUILDING INCREDIBLE BRANDS (LIKE YOURS)
01.
No assholes, sorry! I work with businesses and humans of all different backgrounds! If you want the more blunt side of Delia, you'll find her on Threads, but I promise, as a recovering people pleaser and perfectionist (my husband jokes that I'm Sammy Sweetheart without the drama), you'll be in good hands.
PARTNERSHIP IS always PART OF THE PROCess
02.
I always want to look beyond today. You're hiring someone who cares deeply about your business, and who wants to see you succeed as a founder. This means working hand-in-hand to help you feel beyond confident sharing, talking about, and growing your brand.
consider me the calm during THE CHAOS
03.
You are so close to your brand, and that's a beautiful thing. But that also means you know every possible thing about it. The millions of thoughts swirling inside your head? I make sense of it. We untangle the mess so you're finally able to take action.
SWEATING THE SMALL STUFF IS MY JOB (ON YOUR WEBSITE)
04.
Having my hands in the metaphorical marketing cookie jar, my brain is wired for all sides: language, design, searchability, etc. Those little SEO tasks you dread doing (or don't even know about)? Making sure your website looks as good as it sounds (and functions even better)? Leave it to me.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY
You're not picking me over one bullet point, are you?
If you are, that's a slay for me! The more likely option is that you've read this far is because my website copy sound like I'm talking directly to you.
You can do both. Sound like you and sell, share your real perspectives and build community, grow your brand and not lose your sanity while doing it.
