Editorial Direction and Content Strategy
Brief: create vision, voice, and lead execution of visual and written communications across all channels for Melbourne boutique law firm that needed help with their marketing to attract new clients, attract and retain top legal talent and increase their profile in a competitive industry.
A thoroughly enjoyable assignment that included a lot of writing — particularly B2B articles, press releases, blog posts, staff profiles, social media (LinkedIn, Twitter) —as well as graphic design (brochures, promotional material), website development and editorial direction to establish a cohesive look, style and maintain communications.
Context

Actions
