About Quentin

For me, text work is not a side job, lost in an ocean of varied skills. It is simply my profession, and I aspire to do it with the utmost rigor. If you are proud of your project and expect texts that are up to par, without filler, well-supported, and original, then I will be delighted to put my experience as a major account writer at your service.

Here's how I proceed:

📋 Briefing: To ensure the first draft is as close as possible to the final version, you can tell me:
– Desired subject and structure (long article, snacking format, bullet points...)
– Number of words/characters
– Desired tone (sober, elegant, enthusiastic, cool, minimalist, journalistic, humorous…)
– Language register,
– Target audience…
Feel free to send me a mood board of sites or magazines you like, which could inspire your texts!

⚙️ Editorial strategy: If it hasn't been established yet, we can define it together. This can involve:
– SEO semantic analysis (SEMrush)
– Creation of an editorial charter
– Writing article templates
– Establishment of a glossary…

⌨️ Writing: The writing itself is perhaps the fastest (and easiest) part of the process. It relies mainly on:
– Briefing and editorial line
– Rigorous web research (I take care to cite my sources in each document delivered)
– Several organic proofreads for each document
– Use of Antidote software for orthotypographical finishing

↪️ Feedback: This is included in the price and greatly contributes to improving texts and the editorial charter. It often also helps the client to have a more precise understanding of what they are looking for.
