Here’s what my clients are saying about my work.

Les is an absolute joy to work with. I've encountered few who are as prompt, reliable and on top of things as he is, and his writing is creative and spot on when it comes to message and content.

There was a recent instance where I asked Les to step in last-minute on a rather large project that needed to be turned around very quickly. Les jumped in without hesitation and delivered an extremely well-written, full-fledged paper in the short timeframe that was set. This speaks to his prowess and ability to write well and efficiently on any topic, as well as his ability to work quickly under tight deadlines.

For that and everything else I've worked on with Les, I cannot say enough good things, and honestly don't know what I would do without him!

Allison Francis Senior Account Executive, Idea Grove December 1, 2015

Even though Les specializes in technical writing, he was well able to adapt to our requirement for editorial, lifestyle copy and has produced some great articles for us, on time. He is versatile, obliging, and enthusiastic...a pleasure to work with.

 

Cleo Murphy Managing Editor, Walden Publishing September 15, 2016

Les is a pleasure to work with for contract writing. His work needs little to no editing. He is proficient at understanding the voice and the audience of the content and he communicates in detail along every step of a project. He is also well versed in B2B technology and can speak to it at a high level.

When I have a particularly challenging or complex writing project, I know that I can count on Les to deliver top-notch work on time, every time.

 

Jamie Bryant Vice President at Idea Grove March 17, 2015

Les' work is consistently on time, on message and delivered with a good grasp of the client's voice. He has a knack for making highly technical topics understandable to the layperson, and his research skills are extremely beneficial.

Les requires little editing, which is such a blessing working in a busy agency managing several contract writers. He is one of my "go to" freelancers, and I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.

 

Kris Blackmon Director of Content at Penton March 18, 2015

Les is a pleasure to work with. His deep knowledge in the IT industry makes it easy for me to ask him to write on virtually any topic with authority. His writing skills are adaptable to different audiences and different voices - an asset that isn't easily found. His over positive attitude and creativity makes my job a thousand times easier!

Gretha Loubser Account Executive, Idea Grove November 10, 2015

I've had the pleasure of reviewing several examples of Leslie's work. He is a terrific writer and has a knack for crafting effective marketing copy under tight deadlines. I highly recommend him.

 

Steve Slaunwhite Master Copywriter and Author, "The Everything Guide to Writing Copy" December 3, 2014

Les is one of the very most experienced IT copywriters you could wish to work with. His technical knowledge is grounded in real world experience which in turn lays the foundation for engaging business content and marketing copy. Les is the Hi-Tech industry copywriter you need on your team.

Paul Hanson B2B Technology Copywriter and Marketer, Melbourne, Australia December 1, 2015

I have had the pleasure of working with Les for over 15 years.  I would consider Les in the top 5% of any senior technical staff worldwide and he brings that experience to his writing.

Les is extremely organized, reliable and technically literate, not to mention easy to work with. On my latest [white paper] project, I only had to describe the problem and our solution, and Les did the rest. The result was professional, and the style factual and persuasive, yet very readable. Better than I could ever have created. We will be talking about our additional marketing content needs in 2015.

Steven W. Smith President, SW Smith & Associates Consulting Group, Inc. December 29, 2014

If you need someone to write good copy and content for your hi-tech business, you need look no further than Les. With 30 years of experience in creating commercial software and in managing an IT organization, Les is a writer you won't need to train.

He knows your industry. He's worked and trained in your industry.

I know Les as a fellow copywriter. You will find him conscientious, hard working and willing to work with you to develop the best marketing content for your business. His work is top shelf. For Les, it's not done until it's done right and to your satisfaction.

Steve Maurer, Owner Maurer Freelance Writing, Fayetteville, Arkansas February 3, 2015

Les is absolutely a pleasure to work with. He is smart, thoughtful, and very professional. He is able to take complex issues and communicate their impact on the business in a straight-forward manner. He is trustworthy and very competent. Highly recommended.

Bill Wirt CIO, Spotzer Media Group February 20, 2014

What I most appreciate about Les is his ability to think like the customer. This is evident in his clear and concise manner of writing. Les "just knows" when the customer will inherently need additional information and does not speak over the head of the user. He is uniquely qualified to understand complex technical issues, while also knowing how to communicate these to the average person, helping to make our products and services successful.

Craig Hurley Director, Product Management, NTT America, Inc. April 15, 2014

I have worked with Les for the past 5 years, and he is a person of great integrity and grit. He has the ability to work with technical teams across multiple domains with their sometimes conflicting views, and to work towards an agreeable solution. This has earned him a lot of trust and a positive vibe around the teams. Les can communicate technical details/issues to the business and non-technical staff with ease. Les has a very sharp focus and is keen on delivering a very high quality software. Les is a great giver and I am looking forward to working with him in the future.

Sundar Ramamurthy Senior Engineer, Liquidity Services Inc. February 25, 2014

Les brings a cheerful and professional demeanour to his work, making interactions with him a pleasure. He enthusiastically tackles any initiatives before him and has a great talent for task coordination and effective communication, particularly when summarizing and tailoring the message between technical, business, or executive audiences.

Matt Musselman Manager, Enterprise Architecture, TELUS Communications February 20, 2014

Les managed the development, support, documentation and customer adoption for the unified Global Customer Portal of the second largest [global] telecom company. As manager of customer experience and portal project manager, I appreciated Les' consistency in prioritizing and advancing our product features set. His deep participation in global project conference calls was crucial to our successful product launches, especially his translating complex, technical design issues into concepts palatable for the sales and marketing teams.
