Content Strategist and Ghostwriter at Self-Employed, using SEO content strategy to increase organic search traffic.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Self-Employed, I research industry trends and write marketing copy, organizing drafts in content management systems. I also executed an on-page SEO content strategy that increased organic search traffic.
As a Content Strategist at Private SAAS based IT Firm, I researched SaaS trends, wrote product messaging, and published content through a CMS. I executed on-page SEO for web pages.
Earlier, as a Content Strategist at International & National companies, I researched and wrote articles on topics including SOPs and human resource policies. I adapted my writing for different audiences and collaborated with writers and editors on content quality.
My work has also included creating business content for national and international organizations across HR, SOP documentation, workplace policies, and business communication. I help founders, leaders, and businesses turn complex ideas into clear, engaging content, including leadership writing, workplace and HR topics, AI and the future of work, and business storytelling.
