FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Hello! I’m ELYSE VAN BREEMEN@ COPYWRITINGFORCHILDREN’S PRODUCTS.COM. WOULD YOU LIKE TO ASK ME ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS?
• WHAT KINDS OF RESULTS CAN WE EXPECT FROM YOU?
If you see my about page, you will know that I’m good at getting press. If you see some of my samples, you will see that I’m a good writer. And, I’ve been known to actually contact journalists and ask them to write stories! What do journalists need? Good stories to write. I give them that!
• WHAT’S YOUR PROCESS FOR ENSURING THE PROJECT GOES SMOOTHLY?
Communication is the secret! I do research. I check what I find with you. I stay in communication as I work. And I do it with affinity.
• WHAT KIND OF TURNAROUND TIME CAN WE EXPECT?
It depends of course, on how much research I have to do about your product. But once I know what you’re about, in a day or so I’ll have a press release for you. An article might be longer, but I can give you an estimate once I know exactly what you need and want.
• WHAT IF WE WANT TO MAKE REVISIONS?
Go right ahead. The first thing I send you is a rough draft for your approval. Any changes or clarifications you want to make are done before the release is actually sent out.
• WHAT DO YOUR FEES INCLUDE?
Meetings with you to find out exactly what you need and want, proposing a project, getting it approved by you, sending you a rough draft of any written work, getting it corrected and approved, then my sending it out and following up with those I’ve sent it to. It can include meetings along the way as well.
• DO YOU UNDERSTAND ENOUGH ABOUT OUR INDUSTRY TO WRITE ABOUT IT?
As a writer and performer for children, my specialty is children.
Of course I will do any needed research about your product or service so I truly understand it and will consult with you as well to be sure I duplicate your understanding of the industry.
Also, I’m connected to American Writers & Artists Institute. AWAI is the world’s leading provider of copywriting training programs and so much more. I’ve done many courses with them, and I know where to go for advice and help if I need it!
• WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM EVERYONE ELSE?
I don’t just write about children’s products or services. I write to children. I watch their responses to what I’ve written. I get them to write as well and communicate in my shows. Children are real to me. I’m real to them. I bring out their best. Parents see this as well. Because of this I will be able to help you communicate effectively to children and their parents. And we will have fun doing it!
