Copywriter - Midlothian

Copywriter

Content matters in marketing, and that’s why employing a copywriter is a must for every marketing agency, or indeed any company that communicates with customers. Skilful copywriters know how to take a concept, a message or a goal, and distil it into the minimum of words so customers reach the call to action sooner (and act on it).

Nowadays, copywriters also have an important role in digital marketing. The results you see when you look for a product or service using a search engine aren’t the graphics and the responsive website. It’s the words, written with search snippets in mind, built around high-performing keywords that make your company visible. Writing copy that appeals to both humans and search bots is a skill that is often unrecognised, but when you find the right copywriter, you’ll notice the difference in your bottom line.

The skills required

When you’re considering copywriter recruitment, you should be looking at candidates’ portfolios, as that’s where the proof of their skill is. If you’re compiling a portfolio, try to include published work that’s relevant to the sector you’re applying to, and if possible you should include details of the brief you were given, and any edits that were made after your final submission.

Copywriting qualifications exist, but the majority of professional copywriters are either self-trained or have come through marketing or journalism careers. The most important factor is the quality of their work, the applicability to your sector and the depth of their experience.

Copywriter Jobs in Midlothian

Midlothian is located to the south of Edinburgh, between East Lothian, West Lothian and the Scottish Borders (historically the Peebles-shire part). Its administrative headquarters is in Dalkeith in its northern area, a mile or so from Edinburgh’s south-eastern suburbs. Like many areas of Scotland, Midlothian has a smattering of castles and is a popular destination for day trippers from the city.

Thanks to its proximity to the capital, Midlothian is extremely well linked to the national road and rail network, and Edinburgh Airport is located just outside its north-western border. Although Midlothian is itself largely rural in nature, its main market for Copywriter jobs and such like is probably Edinburgh, which the county wraps around.
