About Ashley Ross

Wouldn't it be amazing to have someone who understands your scientific, nonprofit and education ideas AND can communicate with the non-scientific people (stakeholders, funders and public) who need to understand it best? I have been helping scientists and educators communicate with their stakeholders, funders and general public for over 25 years. Whether you need to generate sales, write grant applications, review final reports, attract customers, inform stakeholders, educate the public or persuade them to join their cause, I can help. I have worked for and with organizations of all shapes and sizes, from local start-ups, universities, wildlife rehabilitation centers, and nature centers to state and federal agencies to multinational corporations. I’ve written about products and services including grant writing, e-learning, app design and business usage, nature and the environment, natural resource careers and nonprofit finance. Where possible, I prefer to quote a fixed fee at the outset which includes unlimited revisions. So when it comes to settling your bill, you’ll know exactly how much you’re going to pay. I’m much cheaper than an agency and cost less than most freelance copywriters. Rest assured, by hiring me you won’t be subsidizing plush offices, a fast car or a champagne lifestyle. I’m flexible. You can draft me in as and when you need to – reliable and powerful copywriting when you need it, no wages or overheads when you don’t. I have an ability to make the most complex appear simple, using plain, reader-friendly English. If I don’t understand it, how can i expect the reader to. I am equally at home talking to an operative in the field or the Executive Director in the boardroom. Whether they’re wearing a suit or overalls, all of their opinions matter. I can brainstorm ideas in a group; independently research and write from scratch; provide quick copy to meet a pressing deadline, or appraise and rewrite existing content.
