Who are we?
Who are we?
Some people bond over their shared love of contemporary jazz. For others, it's their passion for hot yoga that cements the connection. Not us! A misplaced apostrophe on a noticeboard at the school gates (we exchanged an eye roll) was all it took to spark an alliance that ten years on still sees us waging the war on poor writing and grammar. It's a subject that continues to inspire us to champion the importance of
good copy in business and in life.
You're reading this because you want winning words to get ahead. Either you can't spare the time to get to grips with your
business comms, or the mere thought of writing brings you out in a cold sweat. That's where we can help. As former journalists and editors, we know that just one case of bad communication can send out pulses of bad news.
From our base in south-west London, you'll find us brainstorming pitch ideas for a charity launch, following a morning spent editing a captivating
personal statement
for a soon-to-be undergraduate. We have an arsenal of word tools earned over two decades as sub editors, features editors and writers on best-selling consumer and business-to-business magazines
– from teenage gossip mags to parenting, interiors, the shipping industry and beyond…
Working on a such a broad spectrum of material, we have become masters of adapting
our writing style to cater for different audiences. Our love of words has seen us meeting the content and marketing needs of publications such as Grand
Designs and Good Homes, a heritage title (Discover Your High Street), an international marine engineering company, the Department of Trade and Industry (now the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills) and a London-based construction firm.
So that's us in a nutshell. Why not get in touch to see how you can benefit from our writing and editing skills?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Mary Bennett & Christina Haindl
