Barb combines fresh, innovative approaches with solid experience and talent. She’s been in this sector a long time, so she intimately understands non-profits and direct mail. She’s a quick study who can write for a wide range of clients, from human interest stories for health charities to copy for more advocacy-based organizations. Her copy works, it’s powerful and emotive… and I’m still bitter than she left to work for herself, she could have been our copywriter forever!

Barb is a joy to work with. Her big picture perspective, mixed with her diligence and her work ethic, result in a job well done no matter what the project. Her high standards mean that work is delivered to its highest quality, while her practical nature allows her to work within budget. I have enjoyed working with Barb in the past and would work with her again on future projects.

Barb is an excellent communicator. Her copy is emotive but never loses sight of the fact that it needs to move the reader to do something … be an advocate or be a donor to an organization. Barb has extensive experience, across the charitable sector, from large health-related institutions to small advocacy organizations – all have benefited from Barb’s creativity and passion for her work.

During my time as Director of Fundraising for CODE, I greatly enjoyed working with Barb. She draws out the passion from the signatory, translates the key message into great direct mail copy and always meets the deadline. I always valued her feedback on the program, given her extensive experience in the world of direct marketing in Canada. I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.

Barb is a professional, seasoned writer – and she knows how to get the best out of her clients too! Always creative and able to switch gears at the turn of a dime, Barb was fantastic to work with and I learned a lot from our time spent together.

Barb donated her time, energy and expertise to Planned Parenthood Toronto’s first ever Facebook campaign. Her creativity and knowledge played an important role in the campaign’s ultimate success and her dedication and passion has had a major impact on our ability to continue to provide programming that challenges homophobia and works to make schools and communities safer for LGBTQ youth.

Sarah Hobbs-BlythExecutive DirectorPlanned Parenthood Toronto

Barb is highly creative, but as a professional writer, she doesn’t depend on having the Big Creative Moment to produce fresh, well-written copy that hits all the target points. The consistency she delivers is huge! I also love the fact that she’s down-to-earth and always has great suggestions. Barb is a valued colleague.
