Business Copywriter
Affordable and Engaging Marketing Content
Written By Humans for Humans
OK, so what’s with the name Sudden Monkey?
Sudden Monkey is the dba for me, Keith Creighton. I’m a marketing copywriter and content creator, based in Ohio, serving clients nationwide. I started my business in 2010 and have gone on to write for Fortune 500 companies, start-ups, and everyone between.
A few weeks after I opened my doors, I presented this 30-second pitch for my services to my local business networking group:
If you were walking down the street, and suddenly saw a monkey, you would…
Stop in your tracks
Pay attention
And tell everyone about that monkey
That’s what my writing will do for your business!
The name stuck, and my business rapidly took off. Prior to moving home to Ohio in 2025, I also marketed my services at Seattlecopywriter.com
Why hire a professional writer when AI writes for free?
Conversion. Engagement. Bounce Protection. I once saw a meme that summed up AI pretty well, “If you didn’t care enough to write it, why would anyone care to read it?” Sure, AI can bang out website copy that describes your business and services. By design, this word salad will sound just like everyone else, because that’s all AI can do as a writer – borrow and mimic. But Search AI, designed to answer user questions, is looking for authenticity. AI can detect AI-written content. And do you know who else can? Your potential customers.
AI-written copy, paid media, and Google Adwords campaigns can help get clicks TO your website, but what good are clicks if your customers’ eyes glaze over and they bounce? If you sound just like everyone else, customers may wonder if you’re a real business at all.
This is where it helps to have a seasoned marketing professional in your corner.
One who can discuss your current business situation, analyze your competition, and provide a content strategy that not only describes “what” you do, but answers your “why statement”.
Why should customers trust you as the solution to their problems?What word choice, tone, and cadence will best connect with your customers?What should you say, when, and in what order, to guide a prospect through the sales funnel?How much does a professional copywriter cost?
With Sudden Monkey, you get a professional copywriter with 20+ years of agency experience, proven expertise and a portfolio featuring some of the biggest brands in the world, all without agency markup and overhead.
Affordable? Yes. Cheap (as in quality)? No.
In most cases, the total cost of my services is less than the revenue you’ll generate from one incremental client or new business win. Pricing is based on scope of work and the urgency of deadlines. Most work can be delivered within a few days of our intake session.
So the question becomes, how much is it worth to you to stop prospective customers from bouncing? Let’s discuss your project!
