If your business is within the health or lifestyle industries I can help you achieve consistent accuracy while holding your deaf reader’s attention.
I’m a recognised expert in the hearing loss field. I have personally interviewed deaf and hard of hearing people from all walks of life, including celebrities, sportsmen and women and even a law enforcement officer.
During the last five years, I have worked intensively within the deaf, hard of hearing arena, writing on every kind of subject, from the best gadgets to buy your deaf loved one, to the latest cutting-edge technological breakthroughs in hearing loss research.
Being deaf myself gives me insights only someone in my situation can understand, so, when I write deaf articles blogs or website copy for your clients, they know they are listening to a voice who not only understands but who has also been there.
We often hear that old chestnut about walking a mile in another’s shoes, well that is me in a nutshell (pun intended).
I trained in newspaper journalism and because of this, I can easily vary my tone and mood to sort your audience perfectly.
Don’t make this mistake, it could cost you dearly
If you have a deaf audience or would like to grab a piece of that huge market (1 in 6 people in the UK alone) please don’t make the mistake of trying to write for deaf people, if you yourself are hearing.
With the best will in the world no hearing person can possibly understand the daily challenges faced by someone who is deaf.
The only way to reach a new community is to have the ability to engage with them directly, something I can offer you as a deaf writer, because my hearing loss has already paid my entrance fee.
