Profile

My name is Ardith Stephanson and I live Saskatchewan, Canada. I’m a freelance writer with a journalism and communications background. By combining today’s technology with my attention to details and deadlines, I meet the needs of an array of clients, in a variety of ways.

My education and background is journalism and I have 30 years of writing experience. I have written everything from newspaper articles to speeches, funding proposals to promotional materials. I have extensive experience in a variety of strategic communications areas, including media and public relations, and marketing.

Most recently, I have expanded into blog and website writing, with a focus on Search Engine Optimization and content marketing. I have also managed social media like Facebook and Twitter, designed strategic campaigns, and managed platforms like WordPress. My recent work has included:

• Writing product reviews
• Writing specialized website content for varied clients such as kitchen and cooking to home maintenance to financial advisors to online marketing
• Writing with a focus on content marketing, brand journalism and Search Engine Optimization
• Editing and re-writing website content
• Re-vamping a WordPress website, including writing content and re-doing the site structure: Aldebaran Coaching and Consulting
• Writing marketing material in the form of user manuals
• As always, this personal blog where I write for my enjoyment

I have run a successful communications business in the past and I’m a national award-winner in communications, so I’m sure I can help you or someone you know. I ask that if you know anyone who may need my services, please pass along my information.

To read some of my recent work, besides the “fun” stuff I like to write for this blog, here are some samples:

• Writing for the freelancer site HelloBonsai.com, I have written this article on client testimonials, this article on identifying client needs and this article on developing a marketing pitch.
