Service — Advertising Copywriting

Advertising headlines that stop. Copy that sells.

Advertising copywriting is the craft of making people pay attention — then making them act. Nearly three decades in agencies, writing for brands that couldn't afford to be ignored.

MitraSena product range — advertising and brand work by Nabina Ghosh

The advertising copy I write

01

Headlines & taglines

Three words carrying strategy, positioning and creative thinking — the line a brand is remembered by.

02

Print advertising

Long copy or short — every word earning its place on the page.

03

Outdoor & OOH

Billboard and transit copy that communicates in the seconds someone has to read it.

04

Digital advertising

Social, display and search — the same discipline as traditional, written for the channel.

05

Campaign platforms

The line that ties a whole campaign together, across every format it has to live in.

How I work

1

Brief

Product, audience, competition — and the single most important thing to say.

2

Concepts

Multiple directions to react to, not one take-it-or-leave-it idea.

3

Collaboration

Develop concepts with art directors, or write to an established visual direction.

4

Revisions

Sharpen, tighten, test the copy against the visuals it has to live with.

Proof, not promises

Nabina's is a creative mind. It informs her sharp writing, her ideas and designs, and her analytical skills, all of which make her both a hands-on talent and an adept leader. This thinking in the round is rare.

If you're a brand

You get a senior writer who's also a strategist and art director — so the line arrives already knowing what it will sit next to. No briefing a junior, no telephone game between idea and execution.

If you're an agency

White-label advertising copy for overflow and pitches, from someone who's sat on your side of the table. Fast, on-concept, and as visible or invisible as the credit line requires.

Advertising Copywriting FAQ

What kinds of advertising copy do you write?

+

Print and press ads, digital and social, radio, out-of-home, and the campaign lines that hold them together. The medium changes the craft: a poster has seconds to land, a long-form press ad can argue a case, social has to earn the scroll. Same strategy, a different discipline each time.

How is advertising copy different from website or product copy?

+

Advertising copy has to earn attention nobody gave you: a headline that stops someone mid-scroll or mid-page-turn. Website and product copy work with attention you already have, guiding a reader who is looking. Ad copy is the hardest-working line in the room, because it has to interrupt before it can persuade.

How do you handle pitches?

+

I've sat on the agency side of the table, so I know what a pitch needs and how fast. White-label, fast turnaround, as visible or invisible as the credit line requires.

What's the difference between a tagline and a campaign line?

+

A tagline lives with the brand for years and sits under the logo. A campaign line ties one specific campaign together across its formats. Both have to carry strategy in very few words; they just work over different timescales.

Do you charge per ad or per campaign?

+

Either. A single headline or press ad can be priced on its own; a campaign across formats is usually scoped as one project, so the idea stays consistent everywhere it runs. You'll have the number before we start.
