About Me

Hi! I'm Victoria - business copywriter, storyteller, and mastermind behind Mad March Hare Copy. Chuffed to meet you. 


(If you were looking for someone to protect your intellectual rights, I'd suggest contacting a law firm.)


I'm on a mission to eliminate dull copy from the Internet. Reinvigorate the uninspired, spruce the listless, and put the insipid out of its linguistic misery.


Don't get me wrong. I understand not every company can be Google, GoPro and Mount Gay Rum. You might be in an industry that errs on the side of dry or technical. 


Maybe generating the kind of "ooh" and "aah" content you dream of is tantalisingly out of reach. Maybe you think reading is just for academics in tweed outfits.


Maybe you're just too damn busy doing important things - like running your business.


There's still no need for the kind of vapid, dead inside content that makes customers...


a. fall into a self-induced coma

b. pack up and leave in search of a better life

c. (most importantly) forget all about you and go elsewhere.


Sharp, snappy and memorable content gets lurkers to become prospects, and prospects to become customers. Simple.


In real terms, stellar copy means...


You'll get click results, which means more traffic and more leads. It will be informative, succinct and compelling. It will overcome objections, steer towards conversions and establish brand authority. It shows the world (and Google) that you know your stuff and leads will break down your door to work with you.


Here's what previous clients have said about me...


Having Victoria as a contributor to our blog is an editor’s dream. Victoria’s writing is sharp, personable, and well-written, consistently going above and beyond on the topic at hand. I’m grateful to have Victoria to turn to for quality content!

Sara Frandina, co-head honcho + editor, “One Woman


Victoria writes imaginative content that not only entertains the reader, but teaches them something too. Her content is always high quality, free of errors, and creative – three qualities that are essential to content that engages and retains readers. I recommend her highly for any writing project.

Shannon Willoby, Director of Content Marketing, “Scott’s Marketplace”


Victoria was amazing – she listened to what my company does and what our aim is. She was very helpful and the finished product was better than I could have hoped. Thank you so much – I would highly recommend anyone to work with Victoria if they need help.

Lorna Markillie, Owner at "L & D Training"


Victoria was a pleasure to work with. Her writing style is witty and moreish, and the blog posts she created really hit the target. I’ll be back for more.

Andrew Bull, Founder of "Bright Arts"


We should definitely talk. Contact me and I’ll get back to you ASAP.

Experience

Copywriter

Mad March Hare Copy was founded to spread copy you go mad for. No more limp, bedraggled, insipid content. No fluff. No jargon. Just copy brimming with verve, flair, kick and – critically – the human touch.

Company: Mad March Hare Copy

I worked there from 1/2016 until now

Journalist

Before I wrote for clients, I wrote for crowds. Journalism is an exercise​ in getting to the point like nothing else. It was great. But, by nature, news is dry. I needed to spread my creative, inky wings. So I started my own company.

Company: Argus, Western Morning News, Plymouth Herald

I worked there from 9/2015 until 2/2016

Beauty Consultant

Way back when, I decided waiting tables as a student was overrated and walked straight into John Lewis to do something more fun. I worked the Southampton flagship store for just over a year making people look awesome and crushing sales targets. Is it applicable to my writing career? Yes. Make-up isn't for everyone, but I approach it as an art form. It's visual, it's tactile, it's evocative and personal. It's also a great way of topping up your descriptive skills. Somewhere between luxe and naked, and smoked while staying clean? Gotcha.

Company: Benefit Cosmetics

I worked there from 9/2014 until 10/2015
