Cindy Poole Email & Phone Number

What I do:In addition to my position in the financial industry, I am a "wordsmithologist." I write creative content for business applications. My focus is revamping resumes, cover letters and LinkedIn profiles, web site text, one-page business descriptions, e-zine articles and blogs, marketing pieces and bios. I take dull conventional sentences and bring them to life through carefully chosen words and innovative prose.My tip for any professional document you need to compose -If you choose to write your resume or web site content yourself, that's great! Just be sure you have a professional proofread it; not your spouse, sister or best friend as they don't have a vested interest in the document and will most likely tell you it's fine when it really isn't. Writers get over exposed to their material and only see their intended words on the computer screen. They are 'blind' to what is actually there. Seek a professional proofreader! It's one of the best career investments you'll make.Why I write and edit:I graduated with a bachelor's degree in communication, but it wasn't until many years later that I honed my writing skills via working for a language services company. I wrote my own articles for the company newsletter and edited the articles of other contributors. Business letters and even emails were perked up after undergoing my edits. I found great satisfaction is dissecting documents and increasing their impact through word choice, sentence restructuring, clarification and creativity. I eventually started my own writing and editing service and my love for the well written word continues.Who do you know that I can help? 248-388-1593 • ptowordsmithology@gmail.com
