• Identification of key influencers
• Analysis (including Facebook Insights and Google Analytics)
• Crisis intervention

Sample Project:
In 2009, a brand with a negative reputation for reliability and service among some consumers was
apprehensive about opening up a public dialogue with those customers using social media channels. I
understood that many of a brand’s most loyal customers are often not those who’ve had perfect product
experiences, but rather people who’ve had issues and had them resolved quickly, courteously and efficiently.
Therefore, I worked with the brand to create a social media strategy in which online conversation monitoring,
Facebook, and Twitter were used in conjunction with in depth analysis to identify and communicate with
unhappy product owners.
I also provided training assistance to employees who would be staffing the brand’s Facebook and Twitter
pages, emphasizing the importance of transparency during the resolution process. For example, I urged the
brand not to delete negative comments from its Facebook page but rather to reply publicly, resolve the issue
privately, and return to the public forum with a follow up once a resolution has been reached.
The company’s Facebook page, launched last summer, now has more than 50,000 fans and is used daily for
branded conversations with current and prospective product owners. And since its launch in late 2009, the
same company’s Twitter page has been regularly used to successfully solve service issues, receiving
accolades from consumers and prominent bloggers alike.
Content strategy tasks:
• Web page copywriting
• Copy editing
• Content audits
• Tagline and slogan creation
• Scripts for online demos
• Benchmarking
• SEO keywords (including Google AdSense)
• Online style guides
• Press releases
Sample project:
I worked with a major hotel brand on many projects, including one in which I revised and rewrote the
copy on its over 100 spa properties for message and voice consistency. The client requested that the
style of the copy closely correspond to existing graphics and photographs to create a luxurious,
intimate user experience; that the vocabulary used be sophisticated, reflective of advanced culture,
and non regional in flavor and character; and that the overall feel of the content be one of elegance
and luxury.
On another project for the same hotel brand, I wrote the copy for several themed vacation microsites.
On this project, I also worked with designers, information architects, and programmers to develop
two multi functional Google Gadgets that promoted different vacation types and employed user input
to suggest specific properties fitting the chosen vacation genre. The goals were to increase
reservations, click through rates, and awareness of the company’s many distinct hotel brands. To
date, more than three million people have engaged with the interactive tools.
