Be Brave.

My name is John Jordan. And I love words. I love how they connect, work inside the mind, and illuminate potential.

Words may be static on a page or screen, but they have the power to move. Move hearts, minds, souls. Even mountains.

If you need to move those things, drop me a line.

John Jordan - Copywriter

WHAT I’M GOOD AT:

Writing engaging copy across platforms: web, email, social, print, broadcast, video. Using your advantages to foster engagement. Ideation. Cutting out BS.

WHY HIRE ME?

I offer an empathetic and strategic approach to copywriting. I write what’s important to the audience. The target feels understood, smart, and more confident in doing business with you. Engagement happens. Trust builds. Relationships deepen.
