WHAT THEY ARE SAYING

  • Former VP NBA Players Association, Founder ELOS

    I have worked with Sara as both a client and business partner, in multiple capacities regarding her talent as a copywriter and marketing strategies professional.

    Her professionalism, expertise, and talent has proven invaluable for the companies and clients we have serviced together. Sara is well respected authority and thought-leader in her industry.

    My clientele is comprised of professional athletes, sports agencies, and reputable businesses and corporations. I have a high comfort level in referring my clients and strategic partners to Sara because of her versatility and depth as a business professional. As a business leader and authority in the sports branding and sports business vertical, I have worked with many professionals, but Sara definitely stands out in a crowd.

    I knew it was time to overhaul my website, and I’m so thrilled I reached out to Sara to assist with this process.

    Initially, I was hoping to outsource an arduous task to a writer whose style I liked, but with Sara I got so much more than a writing partner.

    Sara guided me through every step of the process: She began by asking me about my business goals, so all content would stem from strategic brand and messaging recommendations. (She even rewrote my site map and recommended new landing pages to help me highlight new initiatives.) She drafted copy for every page of my website that fit with my voice and style—providing several options and allowing for unlimited iterations until I was 100% satisfied.

    She worked within the constraints of the design template I provided and included notes to streamline the process for my web designer. The final deliverable was a document that outlined all content across my new website page-by-page, ready for me to forward to my web designer. This new content sounds like me and clearly reflects the quality of the work I do. I used to be reluctant to send people to my website, but now I’m so excited to share the final result with current and prospective clients.

    I highly recommend Sara. She produces thoughtful, high-quality work on an efficient timeline, and she’s also enjoyable to work with!

  • Director of Women & Wealth, and Senior Wealth Strategist at Northern Trust Corporation

    I’ve worked with numerous editors, as well as branding, marketing, and communications professionals and Sara is absolutely one of the best!

    Over the past four years, she has been a thought partner I can count on at any stage of a project—from structuring my ideas into concise thought leadership articles, to creating corporate brand messaging and content. I often describe our work together as “magic,” because she has a unique ability to put my vision into words. I wholeheartedly trust her ability, instincts, and work ethic, and give her my highest recommendation.

  • Award-Winning Author and Journalist

    Sara McCord designs and creates presentations for me requiring a high level of creativity. Most recently she designed a stunning presentation for the 2018 Aspen Ideas Festival integrating Japanese nature photographs and health data from cutting edge researchers in the Japanese and North American medical communities.

    I don’t think I’ve ever worked with anyone as responsive and efficient as Sara. She is always on time, often ahead of schedule, and she seems to have a sixth sense for anticipating the desires and needs of her clients. I highly recommend Sara for any of your creative business needs.

    Her career advice has been published in Forbes, Newsweek, Time, Inc., and many other leading publications. If you can get Sara McCord on your team for creative and marketing needs, you’ll be happy and ahead of the game!

  • 4X Entrepreneur, Small Business Marketing Expert, Keynote Speaker
