Newsletter Strategist / Copywriter (Part-Time, Ongoing)

The role

I'm a keynote speaker and author working in the future-of-work, generational, and AI-adoption space. I create a lot of content — a new book, a steady stream of LinkedIn posts, podcast interviews, and material generated by my speaking engagements — and I need someone to turn that raw material into a sharp, consistent newsletter.

The goal: keep my past event audiences engaged between touchpoints so they become future prospects — referring me to other events, bringing me into their own organizations, or simply staying warm. This is a monthly (bimonthly at most) send, so quality and consistency matter more than volume.

What you'll do

Primary focus — distill and write. Take a pile of existing source material (book excerpts, LinkedIn posts, interview transcripts, talk content) and figure out what matters. I need someone who can quickly digest a lot of inputs, prioritize the strongest ideas, and shape them into simple, compelling copy that resonates and, ideally, converts. Editorial judgment is the whole job — knowing what to cut, what to lead with, and how to make it land.

Secondary focus — set it up. Help get the newsletter running in a tool like Mailchimp (or comparable): templates, list setup, scheduling, and light formatting. You don't need to be a technical wizard here, just comfortable getting things live and looking clean.

You're a strong fit if you

Write tight, persuasive copy with a clear voice — no fluff, no filler
