(I also did all sorts of random texts in, say: fashion, food, sports-/bikewear, film, kids, spirituality, medical/pharma)

Formats: Microsoft regulars, CC, some graphic formats & for some clients their individual inhouse systems > but preferably you send a text format to work with, which is quickest for me to work on!

Note to you and me: I love good work - but my time is reserved for people with real demand and their budget lined up!
No problem to collaborate with agencies...but again, only if the project is confirmed and budget in the right measures communicated upfront (alongside all project specifics).
No third world agencies, please (no offense, but we all have limited capacity as to what emails we can answer to).
Overall direct clients are preferred!

I`ll gladly engage to help you reach your German-speaking audience in the best possible way!
Please "help me help you" by giving out all the information summed up as fully as you can (wordcount, project dates/duration, budget confirmation, anything else), so I can get back to you in a streamlined and effective manner!
Cheers!

I live in Zurich
