Divya Kapoor
@divyakapoor
Marketing & brand communications specialist turning product thinking into clear, AI-optimized messaging across sales and web.
What I'm looking for
I’m a communications and content specialist with fifteen years in editorial and newsroom leadership, culminating as Deputy News Editor. I moved from headlines and audience growth into brand and marketing consulting since 2022, where I turn a product, an audience, and a founder’s thinking into clear messaging—strategy and copy—across websites, sales decks, email, and social. I’ve led work that improved reader footfall by 15% through a headline framework.
Recently, I’ve focused on B2B SaaS communications systems, building an AI-led end-to-end workflow with Claude (newsletters, product updates, and reusable prompt banks) and producing a full B2B sales deck from structure and copy to design. I also specialize in GEO/SEO and AI content systems, aiming to get content found and cited as discovery shifts from search engines to AI answer engines. In content strategy roles, I’ve delivered measurable impact, including a 33% rise in retention and an 18% rise in therapy completion through data-informed editorial decisions.
