Testimonials

I’ve worked with a range of companies and publications, across a range of industries. Here’s what they had to say about my copywriting, including marketing, editing and music PR services.

Music Writing

“I’ve been working with Ben in some capacity since about 2017, even before I joined Warner Music Australia full-time. Over this time I’ve watched him grow from strength to strength with poise – he’s a go-getter, a curious and engaged learner, and fosters a genuine love for music, both domestic and international. He’s continually working to improve and widen out his skills in all aspects of the music industry – from his interviewing skills, to editing, digital music marketing, SEO practices, and even the mechanics of a major record label.

It’s been awesome helping to guide Ben from a brand new freelance music writer to someone who is respected by music industry and musicians alike for really understanding what artists are trying to convey through their work. He’s a true champion of diversity in music and acutely aware of who needs platforming more than others, and the music industry needs more allies like Ben around. It feels like Ben works 24/7 and his hard work is really paying off, so I can’t wait to see where he’ll be in another 10 years!”

- Uppy Chatterjee, Managing Editor, WMA Media Brands

Music PR

“Ben updated my artist bios, and delivered both short and long versions within a really small timeframe for a grant I was going for. The process was smooth and straightforward, and it was so helpful to have updated materials ready when I needed them. Ben’s a great writer and communicator and I highly recommend him!”
- Charlie Lane

“Ben helped put my messy creative thoughts into words that helped me pitch super efficiently to Triple J. It led to a Home and Hosed play, a TOPS Unearthed play, and a spotlight on the Unearthed website. I am so grateful for his personal approach but professional standard.”
- Sophie Edwards

“I've been working with Ben for around 3 years now on a multitude of jobs with a bunch of different artists. His bios, press releases and music writing reads like a true music lover with a deep understanding of the intricacies of the Australian music community. Delivers on time and has always exceeded my expectations.”
- Tom Vanderzeil

Marketing

“An amazing all-rounder – I could rely on Ben to craft the article, impeccably reference all links, then distribute via the blog and relevant social media channels. Not to mention he is an absolute whiz at technology!"

- Mandy Gray, Marketing Manager, WorkPro

“Ben is a copywriting machine! He pumps out so much content, adapted to our brand voice and happily took on feedback to continue lifting the bar. An enthusiastic member of the team who is always willing to learn more about marketing and business.”
- Tom Summons, Director of Marketing, FastTrack360

“It was a pleasure to have Ben take part in the SBS Internship program at our Melbourne bureau. Ben is enthusiastic and motivated and got on well with the rest of the staff. He accomplished virtually all tasks with minimal supervision and was always eager to confront the next challenge. Ben’s journalistic output is already of a high standard. On the few occasions when I needed to provide feedback and request improvements, Ben readily made the adjustments and produced high-quality material that we were happy to showcase on the SBS News website. “
- Greg Dyett, SBS News
