Black Women Copywriters
Hiring a copywriter is more than just having a person who can put words together for your website or blog posts. When using the right strategies, copywriting helps a business’ core values and brand messaging to shine, increasing connection and engagement with current and potential customers.
Every word on your website, in your marketing emails, and in your other collateral is digital real estate, so you really need to use that space well and choose every word wisely. Bring on a sistah-copywriter to create the stories that will turn your visitors and followers into customers.
Here are some Sistahs in the copywriting field who you need to know.
Errol de Jesus
Errol de Jesus is a copywriter and the author of Melanintro to Languages, a book that introduces how to be a writer in multiple languages – an uncommon topic in the Black community. Errol has a passion for creating content that pushes African American women to become bilingual and to help teach and support their children in doing the same. Errol’s business and her book stem from her own experience: before she began writing this way, she struggled with how both her own race and race in general so greatly impacted her ability to thrive. Nevertheless, she persevered, traveling abroad and embracing the opportunity to speak other languages. Errol has been featured as a writer on Rosetta Stone, Babbel, Drops, and FluentU.
