What You Get
You get all my years of experience as a creative and a writer in fields dedicated to selling products and services, to enlightening and engaging people, as well as my curious passion for research.
Copywriting
You get the talent of a highly skilled writer who knows her onions from her shallots. One who does her research and asks questions to make sure she fully understands your needs and your company. One who won't waste your time and will meet her deadlines. You get a first draft and two sets of changes.
Websites
You get Wordpress websites that stand out from the crowd and bring you measurable results. You get excellent copy. Copy that paints a picture in the mind of your customers, that entertains, informs and educates them. That makes them think about your company, your services and products, in a whole new way. Copy that galvanizes them into action.
Media
You get all my years of experience as a concept creator, writer, producer and director for both local and international broadcast television. Not only do I write the script, but I can take your company video from script through to finished product.

It's all very well me telling you about myself, but what do my clients think?
"Just a quick note to say thank you very much for all your excellent work - much appreciated."
Chris Fletcher, Earth Touch UK | MIPCOM Promotional Material
"I truly enjoyed working with you on this. These 2 reports were an enormous challenge given the amount of info that needed to be consolidated and well articulated. You have not only done this but grasped this business very quickly. So, thank you and great job."
Kate Mol, Brand Therapy SA | FUNDI 2017 Integrated Report
"Elaine’s long-standing association with us as content creator and script writer has been extremely productive and successful. Our clients have commented on numerous occasions on both the creativity and quality of the productions that she has scripted for us.
Of particular note was the video production for Pfizer Pharmaceuticals New York which was a commissioned ‘donation drug inventory management’ video entitled “Inventory Management / Mission Possible”. In collaboration with us she created a visual premise that utilised both reality footage and animation to make a mundane and static topic exciting and entertaining. This video continues to be used on a daily basis by the company worldwide. Due to the resulting popularity of the award-winning video, Pfizer New York then entrusted us to translate it into 4 languages which formed the core of the multi-language packaged management kits distributed to doctors, chemists, dispensaries and hospitals throughout the world.
We are confident that our highly successful collaboration will prosper and we continue to explore new avenues and production possibilities going forward."
Bruce Lawson, CEO Omni Images SA

"I love outsourcing my copywriting to Elaine Dodge. She is fast and very creative. She follows briefs accurately and is flexible in style and tone. She delivers on time, never misses deadlines and is very easy to deal with. Her work is always meticulous, her research is good and she is always uncompromisingly professional. I think she’s great. Which is why I have worked with her consistently over the past two years."

"Elaine is that rare writer who not only writes well, but moves the reader with her work. It is well researched, original and professional. We haven’t found a subject that she can’t unpack. She always meets her deadlines and is a pleasure to work with. A true professional. Very seldom do our clients request changes to her copy. I would highly recommend Elaine. Thanks for the awesome work so far, Elaine, great to be working with you!!"
