Hi, I’m Dania. Freelance writer and content strategist.

It started with a simple how-to video. I knew our software could be more intuitive, but I also knew our team contended with a daily barrage of phone calls—the majority of which posed the same question:

How do I submit my work?

The process was simple enough to walk through within a few minutes for most, but the sheer volume of calls made it impossible to do much else.

So I made a video.

Within a few short weeks, I realized the impact content could make on a business.

My simple how-to video earned more than 30 thousand views.

You can guess what this meant for our inbound call volume.

Working in customer service offers a wide window into the shortcomings of any company.

My stint in B2B and SaaS support emboldens me with:

Relevant, real-world experience

  • 8 years in SaaS / 6 years in B2B tech / 3 years in B2B content marketing.
  • A sense of what is obvious (and uninteresting) to tech leaders as well as what is interesting, educational, or noteworthy.
  • First-hand experience and understanding of the challenges between sales and marketing, sales and support, and support and product.

A customer-centric approach to writing

  • Supporting customers with varying levels of tech proficiency taught me how to tailor my message to write for maximum clarity—but there’s a fine line between being clear and respecting audience intelligence. I work hard to find the sweet spot.
  • Expertise and authenticity can be approximated if you interview experts, engage with the right communities, and know your way around search. I do.
  • I take great pride in my work. To date, the “worst” feedback I’ve received from a client is: “It’s pretty good.”

Now I’m on a mission to help B2B technology companies improve and scale their content to grow their audience and business.

Your business is probably a good fit if:

  • You believe content marketing is a long-term investment, not an overnight remedy
  • You have a content strategy, content marketing plan, or content calendar in play
  • You believe in a healthy balance of SEO, thought leadership, and brand building content
  • You have a good sense of your company’s personality or brand and value prop, and you can articulate this in content briefs
  • You value good writing and respect the time and costs associated with it

Sound like you?
