Meet the writer with heart:

I’m Martyn A. Dell and I own Heart’s Write. Although my home base is London, ON, as a freelancer, I have the freedom to write for clients throughout the world. Thanks Internet!

I provide online copywriting services for heart-centred business owners like you (obviously you are one if you’re reading this page!)

You know the value of what you offer your customers. Your product or service enriches lives. I help you communicate that value to your customers using your truth, integrity, and passion. In other words, by using your heart!

Your voice is unique in your industry. You’re the only one with your specific mix of qualities, characteristics, and skills. As a Certified Business Coach, I have an instinctive knack for discovering your talents and gifts plus revealing what you need to say to your customers.

Then, I use my writing expertise to create your copy clearly and concisely – using YOUR voice. Your customers get to know, like, and trust you which will compel them to do business with YOU.

Who Is Martyn, Really?

Above all, I’m passionate about building relationships both personally and professionally. I care about WHO you are and WHAT I can do FOR you!

Owning a business can be stressful and scary at times. (I’ve owned 4 of them!) I love helping my clients relieve some of that stress by providing the writing services they need. I enjoy creating partnerships with my clients to help grow their businesses.

With my 4 businesses, I’ve gained 9 years of marketing knowledge and experience. I love collaborating with my clients to discover fresh solutions to their marketing challenges.

How I Help My Clients:

Listening to their needs (increasing validation and support).

Helping them determine their goals for the project (boosting focus and clarity).

Helping them articulate what they want to say (improving communication).

Providing a customized solution to those needs – copywriting or copyediting for each unique project (saving time and money).

Ensuring they are satisfied with the final product (enhancing business image).

Providing business coaching to overcome obstacles and quickly achieve goals (encouraging motivation and persistence).

Brainstorming marketing strategies with them (generating new ideas and problem solving).

Delivering what they want on time, within budget, to their satisfaction (heightening productivity and increasing bottom line).

Educating new purchasers of copywriting if necessary (expanding knowledge).

Working independently so they don’t need to micromanage the project (furthering revenue generation).

Books and E-Books Published:

As a writer and coach, I have been privileged to work with some of the top Life and Business coaches in the industry.  My business-related collaborations include:

When Selling Feels Like Selling Out (for the e-book Marketing for the Totally Terrified. Click the title for the complete e-book! My chapter starts on page 7.)

Choosing Your Niche:  Targeting Your Marketing Dollars Wisely (for the book Top Coaches Share Their Small Business Strategies. Sign up for my weekly blog digest and/or monthly newsletter Write from the Heart to receive a downloadable e-book of this chapter! )

Note: These collaborations occurred while I was planning to be a full-time life coach. My business naturally evolved into copywriting and business coaching because of these collaborations. The information I wrote in the first chapter is still relevant but it reflects my life at that point.  The contact details are outdated. The information in the second chapter has been updated and the contact details are current.

On a Personal Note:

I’m a dedicated lifelong learner. It energizes me to discover something new and interesting to enrich my life or the lives of my clients. I have an insatiable thirst for knowledge – I usually have my nose buried in a book or my eyes glued to my computer screen. It’s no wonder I wear glasses!

Making a difference in my community is incredibly important to me. Most of my free time is spent volunteering. My current commitments are listed below and I’ve also been a Big Sister, Book Buddy, READ Tutor, and Adult Literacy Tutor.
