BRANDS THAT CATCH YOUR EYE AND GET YOU TO GLEEFULLY GIVE UP YOUR CREDIT CARD # HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON...

THEY DON'T HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT.

The brands that successfully capture (and hold) your attention have a certain je ne sais quoi.

   They speak your language. 

   They make you want to dive in and learn more.

✔   They delight you in spite of yourself.

    ✔   They make buying from them feel like a no-brainer.
     

    And they do all of this with intention.

    The takeaway?

    STOP WINGING IT AND WAITING FOR YOUR BRAND'S BIG BREAKTHROUGH. 

    Your ideal customers aren't behaving the way you'd like?

    It's time to reevaluate your strategy.

    HOW MUCH ARE YOU LOSING BY USING THE WRONG WORDS?

    DON'T LET SLACK-SPINED VALUE PROPOSITIONS AND AMATEUR COPY KILL YOUR CONVERSIONS

    If you want to bolster your bottom line and win the battle for customers' attention, trust, devotion, and hard-earned $$$, you must (at every single touchpoint):

    ✔    make your dream clients and customers feel deeply understood

    ✔   convince them that you're uniquely equipped to solve their problems and fulfill their desires

        persuade them to take action

    ✔    keep them coming back for more (and gushing about your brand/offering)

    A quality product/service is important.

    An enticing offer is important.

    Good design is important.

    But it's all for naught if your messaging misses the mark.


    WORDS MATTER.

    The right ones showcase your unique value and connect with your target audience to get you noticed, adored, and paid.

    WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

    about their experience with The Brand Standard

    Part copywriting big gun, part business strategist, part branding ace, part marketing wiz — Katharine is a rare find who brings mastery, excellence, and heart to everything she touches.


    Though I initially hired her for a single project, I went on to make Katharine a key part of my team.


    I never feel like Katharine is "just a consultant" because she’s truly invested in my success and goes beyond her scope of work to provide valuable insight across my business as a whole. 


    At every turn, she’s demonstrated trustworthiness, confidence, experience, and value beyond my expectations.

    RODNEY FLOWERS

    Best-Selling Author, Keynote Speaker & Coach

    After engaging numerous copywriters to help with my charity’s marketing materials, I was left disappointed by their unreliability and utter lack of follow-through. A lot of time and energy was wasted for little to no return. 


    Then I met Katharine. From our first chat, I was impressed by her enthusiasm, thoughtful questions, and insightful suggestions.  When I realized that she's also skilled in strategy, design, and branding, the original project quickly expanded and blossomed.


    Katharine jumps right in wherever her client is and helps them move forward fast. If that’s what you’re looking for, hire her.

    JUDY WALKER

    Principal - Judy Walker Group & Golden Rule Charity

    My industry is highly specialized, technical, and nuanced. Frankly, it can be tough for a layperson to understand, let alone speak on.


    Katharine truly goes the extra mile to learn about your industry, your brand, and your target audience to get you results.


    With Katharine’s expertise in my corner, I can focus on what I'm really good at  — running my company and serving my clients.


    Copywriting and communications strategy? I leave it to Katharine, and I heartily recommend that other business owners who want to save their sanity and make more $$$ do the same.

    PAUL HWANG

    CEO & Founder - The Filo Group

    Katharine was initially hired to strategize and manage our company’s most substantial annual marketing and public relations campaign.


    Her fresh ideas, attention to detail, adaptability, and relentless follow-up resulted in our most successful campaign to date with a 20% increase in engagement, a 6% increase in new leads, and major media pickups by CNBC and Politico.


    She also made great headway on our email marketing to help us engage new customers and re-engage existing ones.

    Only 5 months into sending Katharine's nurture campaign emails, we've already beaten the entire previous year's conversion rate by 4%. After her rewrite/redesign of our refer-a-friend campaign’s landing page and email series, month-over-month referrals jumped by 82%. 

    Katharine is able to clearly see the big picture while also focusing on the smaller details to achieve real-deal results. That's why we keep coming back to her time and time again.
