Messaging That Moves: Writing for Brand, Campaigns, and Conversion

Over the course of my career in association marketing, I’ve written messaging that moved people—from first click to final purchase. Whether I was writing a high-level conference theme or a subject line for a limited-time offer, I treated every piece of copy as a chance to connect strategy with audience action.

​

I created the creative brief and campaign messaging for our annual conference each year, shaping everything from the email cadence to the video script to the microsite copy. I developed benefit-focused messaging for advanced certifications, new programs, and digital products—working across member and nonmember segments, adjusting voice and value proposition for each.

​

My role spanned the full campaign arc: I led the message strategy, crafted the copy across email, web, print, landing pages, social ads, and videos—and collaborated closely with our design and product teams to align content with outcomes.

​

Highlights include:

• Wrote high-converting campaign copy for non-dues revenue programs—conferences, certifications, publications, and education products

• Created creative briefs and campaign narratives that guided both messaging and visual direction

• Developed segmentation-aware messaging for both members and nonmembers, tailoring tone and benefits accordingly

• Helped define the brand voice and infused it across digital channels, including new landing pages, ads, and email sequences

• Always anchored messaging in user value—asking not just what we’re selling, but why it matters to the person reading​

Across every format, my writing was grounded in strategy and audience insight—ensuring every message worked harder to drive engagement, revenue, and long-term connection.
