We matchmake - brands and authors
Ever wondered what someone like Ernest Hemmingway would make of your newsletter?
Might Sylvia Plath find your email copy a bit tragic?
Bretch baulk at your bulletin?
You get the picture.
Our key insight is that the essence of good copy is inimitability. That’s why we matchmake brands with award-winning authors - to provide a voice all their own.
The result is precision in rhythm, spectacular vernacular and a 100% unique approach to talent and service.
Why we matchmake brands and authors
Just so, how many times have smaller, youth-coded brands appealed to you with a faux-daring informality? Every -ing suffix is a dinner jacket waiting to be paired with a graphic T for these people: a fusty tradition ripe for desecration.
How many times have you been told you’re ‘talkin’ their language’ how many bold, paratactic pairs? “Your performance; Our passion’ Heritage style; urban mindset’?Hardly inimitable.So at a time when imitation has simply exploded as a XXX, and every LLM update presses imore firmly on toes those writers of still clinging to the ledge, the question becomes…
Enter a world where you’re matchmade with your very own publishing playwright, poet or novelist.
Where your vocal range is not restricted to Peppy Millennial, Breathy Polysyllabic (see virtually all luxury brands, à la ‘retire into decadence') or, our personal favourite, Corporate Vision Board Ipsum/Inspo:
From the website of an actual luxury copywriter
Borders crossed here: from pompously insipid to genuinely, somatically nauseating.
Let’s put our cards on the table. This is beautiful:
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
Not least because it contains ideas. Notice the conditional; notice next the unusual choice of adjective: a word unassociated with personality or gesture, moving its subject to a kind of exceptionalism within its own frame.
This kind of writing — good writing — cannot be achieved inside the mindless execution of a few prevailing styles.
The genuinely halting, surprising or poignant cannot be extrapolated from a ToV guide stuffed inside a custom GPT, or a series of verbal tics passing for risque.
And when you think of your brand — the thing you have poured love and attention and dogged human effort into — how do you want it represented? As an echo of an echo inside a tin ear?
Or, as you no doubt first envisioned. Something new. Something its own. Something beautiful.
Now, you likely have some questions. We know Fitzgerald is no slouch; who have you got in your corner?
We handpick up-and-coming playwrights, poets and novelists, and matchmake them with brands across sectors as well as agency partners.
Wait? How do you work with agencies?
And we can't just use an LLM? See for yourself.
