Original listing copyInternational marketplaceBranded template

Challenge: A client was entering the eBay Australia market with U.S. listing copy that needed improvement and no consistent branded description template.

My contribution: Wrote the Australian listing from scratch and helped create a branded template for product descriptions.

How the copy helps shoppers

The description explains the product's purpose, offers five practical reasons to use it, provides step-by-step instructions, and includes specifications and package contents.

My approach

Research before adjectives

I start with what a product actually does, who needs it, and which details might affect a buying decision. I use marketplace experience and tools such as Helium 10 and Keepa to inform search and competitive research, then write for people first.

Accuracy is part of persuasion

Strong copy doesn't need invented claims. I prioritize clear specifications, defensible benefits, readable structure, and consistency across product pages and channels.

AI as a working tool

I use AI tools to accelerate research, outline options, explore phrasing, and support editing. Product facts, claims, and final wording still require human review and judgment.

Beyond marketplace listings

My broader work includes website copy, page structure, SEO-focused revisions, and customer-facing content. Additional examples and packaging-copy concepts can be added as separate, clearly identified projects.
