Hello.
I have a B.A. in Marketing and Communications and chose that major with the intention of having a career in the writing field. I have worked as a coordinator for a sales department which required that I prepare sales presentations aimed at a number of different companies in a variety of industries. We went from gasoline companies to cable companies to household product companies. Unfortunately, that was only a temporary position and since then I've been in the finance field. I am very interested in getting back into a position where I can write as well as learn about new industries. I am very open to the criticisms you have to offer because I want to be great and it would be a perfect trade off for you taking a chance on a newbie like me.
Below I've copied and pasted two writing samples. They are copy that I've written. The first is for an iHome and the second is a sample I submitted to a prospective client who owns a website that sells magazines. He wanted 200 words of copy for each magazine on his website.
iHome (model number unknown):
The iHome is the ultimate alarm clock docking system and best of all, is iPhone compatible. Not only does this iHome model let you listen to your iPhone/iPod, it charges your devices and is also an AM/FM radio. The iHome allows you to dock two iPhones/iPods and doesn’t disappoint in the sound department. The LED light is non-intrusive but if you’re a light sleeper, you can dim it or turn it off completely. The time and date are always accurate and you can fully control the radio, your iPhone/iPod and snooze or power off your alarm clock using the convenient remote control. The alarm clock allows you to choose to wake up to the sounds of your favorite playlist, favorite radio station, or a normal alarm clock buzz. You can set up to three different alarms at the same time and you have the option to use the “7-day,” “Weekday Only,” and “Weekend Only” functionality so that at the end of a weekend, you never have to remember to set your alarm and you’re always awake in time for your busy weekend of errands. The iHome comes in black and white and as always, is sleek and understated so it will fit in with any room’s décor.
