Mark Foster
Mark has been a copywriter for over 20 years, starting
off in London advertising agencies and then moving
to the country and going freelance in 1991.
In London Mark used to work on major accounts such
as Barclays Bank, Lee Jeans, Nikon cameras and Fiat.
The work appeared on TV, at cinemas, on the radio
and in the national press.
As a freelancer he now works more on brochures,
direct mail and newsletters, although he occasionally
does TV and radio. |
Anna Hollisey
Anna has been a freelance copywriter for five years.
In fact, it was the Institute’s Diploma in Copywriting
that gave her the confidence to start trading casually
and, eventually, to take the plunge and quit her job!
In that time Anna has worked for big firms such as
Ernest Jones, Bakker Spalding, and the DoH’s
design agency. She’s written a huge range of
materials, from Vogue ads to a speech for a famous
TV chef! In 2008 she won the Editorial category at
Xchangeteam’s national Freelancer of the Year
awards. |
Chris Steward
Chris has been a full-time professional copywriter since 1993, working both for agencies and direct for companies. Earlier in his career he worked in a range of client-side marketing roles, combining copywriting with other responsibilities, including planning and production management.
As a freelance copywriter, Chris has written just about every kind of marketing communication, from radio commercials for rail travel and videos for new housing developments to IT websites and holiday brochures. He’s written about insurance, credit cards, bread, airports, cruises, TV programmes, fruit juice cartons, rabbit food, tractors and more. He’s even written ads extolling the benefits of concrete building blocks!

Richard Owsley
Richard is a full time copywriter for a specialist
copywriting agency which he set up with some colleagues.
Much of what he writes is what we call ‘business-to-business’ – that
is, for a business audience (e.g. case studies for
Ericsson, brochures for Vodafone, ads for Sony).
He also writes for the consumer (Boots travel insurance
booklets, Jobcentre leaflets, and Bank of Scotland
letters), for staff (Safeway and Prudential), and for
investors (Marks & Spencer's annual report).
