October Shares and Scares

(Historians agree: when the Roman Legion switched from sandals to Chuck Taylors, it spelled the end of the Empire.)

Halloween is about the only holiday(?) that truly excites me, where I put forth what might be construed as an EFFORT.  Actually, Trick or Treat preps actually DO require some work, as seen here:

 

But it’s worth it when you see the awe in some little 4-year-old Batman’s eyes.  Speaking of which, I wonder what this year’s costume trend will be? I am guessing Wonder Woman.

Anyway, what’s happening here at the Exchange?

• Starting a web project for a property management firm in Columbia SC
• Completed writing a website for an upscale Columbia SC restaurant
• Continued managing a Facebook program for a Charleston dental practice
• Blogging and Facebook for a Charleston mortgage lender
• Blogging and Facebook for an Upstate SC infrastructure construction firm.
• Blogging and Facebook for a Charleston CPR Training School.
• Blogging and Facebook for an Upstate SC infrastructure construction firm.
• The aforementioned huge social media push for the international chemical company. 

And, speaking of blogging, here are the latest future classics in:

• Floral Chemicals
• Road and Bridge Construction
• CPR Training, and
• Mortgage Lending

Thanks for tuning in. If you need copywriting that chills and thrills, but never ills, contact livelyexchange (at) gmail (dot) com. Now scram – I have three -year-old candy to thaw out!

Labor Day Links ‘n Such!

“Charleston in the summertime: Like breathing through a wet cat!”

How was your Charleston copywriting summer? Hot and sticky like mine? I’m thinking this Friday before Labor Day might be the most humid day of the year. As I often say, “Copywriting is one per cent inspiration and 99 per cent perspiration – especially in Charleston!”

So what’s happening here at the Exchange?

• Began writing a website for an upscale Columbia SC restaurant
• Wrapping up a website for a non-profit in Boston.
• Started a Facebook program for a Charleston dental practice
• Blogging and Facebook for a Charleston mortgage lender
• Blogging and Facebook for an Upstate SC infrastructure construction firm.
• Word comes of a huge social media push for the international chemical company
• Dreaming up demented, amateurish Photoshops to accompany my blog posts

Seems like a lot of existing client maintenance lately, and that’s just fine. But there’s always room for more at this party, so come on along! For web, print, video and social media copy and content, contact livelyexchange (at) gmail (dot) com!

Blogging for Dollars!

My hand gets all pale, raster-y and detached after a hard day’s blogging!

The Blogotron was humming at peak efficiency last week as I completed blog posts for a heavy construction company, a chemical company, a CPR training school, an IRS tax defense law firm and a boutique mortgage lender.

National Book Lover’s Day

It’s National Book Lovers Day, because there is a day for everything!

I’m definitely having a reading year in twenty and seventeen, and heavy on the Dystopias for some reason! Started by re-reading Margaret Atwood’s Madaddam Trilogy – soon to be the next great HBO series. Then, a middling Atwood-lite called California by Edan Pelucki. Some speculative political fiction with Indian Country by Kurt Schlichter. More Atwood as I re-read Handmaid’s Tale for the 8th time. Even MORE Atwood with the more recent, and just-OK, The Heart Goes Last. Finally, this year’s winner so far, Station Eleven by Emily St John Mandel.

What are YOU reading?

Copywriting in Bloom!

My knowledge of Floriculture extends to learning the word “Floriculture.”

Well, more like social media content. Blogging, to be precise. And another example of diving in, learning a topic, and being able to produce – no matter how foreign the subject matter. In this case…FLOWERS.

I have been working with/for Floralife of Walterboro SC for about 5 years. An old Philips connection. Started out rewriting their website, did some video production and then a ton of social. Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn and Google+ all emanating from the Hootsuite platform. And, of course, blogging.

So here’s the latest. An article in Better Homes & Gardens set off alarm bells at Flower Central, both here and in Belgium. A profile on some famous flower grower and author revealed a previously unknown preference for a certain Floralife flower preservative. This set the Batphone at stately Lively Manor a-glowing…by Gar, let’s blog about that!

So here ye be! Please to enjoy “Industry Recognition for Floralife Crystal Clear!“
