Freelance health writer and web manager, Michelle Gibeault Traub is...
It will never cease to amaze me how powerful words can be. They can inspire, uplift, energize, and yes, they can encourage the purchase of products and services. As a writer-for-hire, I have helped many companies sell with my words. While that does help me put gas in my car, it doesn't always fuel my heart.
I have come to realize that my writing and web projects are more than just words and HTML to me - they are my babies. I put my heart and soul into every single one, giving them a life of their own. That is why I have chosen to provide special services for nonprofit organizations.
Who is eligible for "nonprofit services"?Nonprofit organizations dedicated to health promotion have unique needs. Their communication pieces must effectively address the many facets of health and health care - an arena that is emotionally and often politically charged. It can be difficult to sell the notion of good health since so many people take the concept for granted. The key is to bring the true humanity back to the issue by really connecting with people and showing them easy ways they can help themselves and others. This devotion to humanity is particularly effective in my grant writing.
Web developers and web design firms have many clients. Likewise, they often have hefty fees. Both are a necessity for them to simply stay in business. While many large web firms offer special rates for nonprofits in good faith, they aren't always able to give their nonprofit clients their full attention. This means projects can take longer with simple web edits sometimes taking days. In addition, web firms generally handle design and technology alone, they don't provide editing, content ideas, or health information. I am able to serve as a "one-stop shop" for all your web content needs. I can set up affordable web hosting, provide quick and accurate web updates, and offer content ideas for social media and more.
