Why the new name?
Last year saw us celebrate the 10th anniversary of LY Copywriting. It marked a decade since I set up from my sofa as a freelancer under the business name LY Copywriting. I started with an old laptop, a website that screamed self-built and spent my time firing off emails about who I was and what I could offer to anyone and everyone (this was pre-GDPR when exporting your connections on LinkedIn to bulk message was allowed).
Fast-forward 10 years and, as well as buying my first house, getting married, welcoming two children and helping the business bounce back after the downturn ..read more

AI: A Helpful Sidekick, Not the Hero
First up, let’s chat about AI. There’s been a lot of chatter about AI taking over, but here’s the deal: it’s more of a sidekick than the main hero. AI is fantastic at handling the grunt work – think real-time SEO tweaks and sorting data like a boss. But when it comes to the soul of your content? That still calls for the human touch.
Imagine AI as your time-saving assistant, freeing up your creative mind to do what it does best – tell stories, empathise and connect. It’s about using AI to enhance our human touch, not replace it. So, breathe easy, fello ..read more

The Power of Personalisation

With Halloween around the corner, let’s harness the power of fright night to give your audience some thrilling FOMO moments. Here’s how to weave some Halloween magic into your content marketing strategy.
1. Exclusive Cauldron Content and Limited Time Potions
One of the most effective ways to create FOMO is through exclusive content or limited-time offers. By nature, exclusivity creates a sense of urgency.

1. Twitter’s Great Loss After Rebranding to X:
Perhaps the most startling event this year was Twitter’s audacious decision to rebrand as “X”, a bold move that left many in the industry bewildered. And the gamble didn’t pay off initially. To date, Twitter has lost half of the value/price Musk paid for it, not to mention advertisers and millions of users who have turned to other social media platforms. The reason? Analysts believe it was a mix of brand loyalty, user confusion, and the platform’s attempts to reshape its image. Though the future remains foggy, this move reminds us that even the ti ..read more
