    Talk to the hand, Kim. The hand.

    “I’ve worked with Kim on several projects in the past three years. Widely varied clients, widely varied industries, and widely varied content needs. And she’s gotten it right every time.

    “Midstream on one major project for a global residential- and industrial-controls manufacturer, my own career path changed.Kim had been supporting me as a copy editor. But when I asked her to step up and take over the entire project — which included building and populating a large new site using SharePoint tools — she did. And she handled it so well the client eventually asked her to take on an even larger role as project manager, in addition to her content and site-building responsibilities.

    “Unflappable + wicked sense of humor + good work and consistent delivery? Yes, please.”

    Kim says:

    When I met Emily in 2009 she was running her own consulting company and I hoped to work with her some day. It’s true, she left me holding the SharePoint bag. But I’m big enough to ask her for a testimonial and give her candy in return. Because Emily is super smart, I really enjoyed working with her, and it all worked out in the end. Thanks, Emily.

    Here’s Emily on LinkedIn. And if you want to see her IRL, you might catch her here.

    This month only: sea salt caramel copywriting!

    Sea Salt Caramel Copywriting?

    You heard me right! In honor of Valentine’s Day, and since I’m all for climbing on the back of popular trends, this month I’m offering a special on SEA SALT CARAMEL COPYWRITING! (Yes, I yelled that. Apologies. I’m excited.)

    But there’s a twist: you write the copy, I send you the caramels.
    (The exact ones pictured above, and the sea salt is PINK!)

    Here are the guidelines:

    1. You’ve been a Rribbitz client in the past three years.
    2. You write a brief testimonial about the work I did for you, your role working with or hiring me, and why you’d recommend or hire me again.
    3. You post it on the Rribbitz Facebook page and/or allow me to share it on my website.
    4. Optional: you include something about my sparkling personality.
    5. Yes, more than one person per company can provide a testimonial, as long as it’s someone who actually worked with me.

    Deadline: February 14, 2013. Your caramels will be delivered by the end of the month.

    Aren’t you excited?! Just another quick note: you can’t ask me to write this one for you. But thanks for trying, I admire your tenacity.
