Content Marketing Manager

Candice de Beer 

My freelance portfolio is as diverse as my skillset. 

Welwitschia Hospital - Lifestyle blog
I was nervous about tackling Welwitschia's lifestyle blog because it is the medical industry. These are technically and emotionally difficult topics. But over the last two years, I've loved researching and writing for the brand, with parenting being the most popular section. 

Stratum International - Executive Recruitment for the Mining Industry
In the short time I've worked with Stratum, I've helped bring warmth and personality to their writing. I've edited case studies and The Digital Revolution report, written social media posts, email campaigns, and an article for The Assay Base Metals Edition, and reworked the home page.

BlokoBloko - Blockout Blinds
When Dee, a solopreneur, approached me to help write her website, I was thrilled. As a mom, I could bring my experience of getting my babies to sleep during the day or while on holiday to the writing process. I wanted the copy to take the user on a journey. It needed to establish familiarity, quickly earn their trust, and entice them to buy.

3MU - Organic Hair Care
Joanna won me over with her bold personality and passion for helping women with hair loss. I wanted to share her compelling story and create a website that positioned her brand as the trusted hair loss serum.

Virtually Visiting - Virtual 360-degree travel app
Working with startups can be challenging because there's often no established brand personality or tone. But co-founders Gwen and Amanda knew exactly what they wanted when they approached me to create an 8-day email launch campaign promoting their virtual travel app. I'm still waiting to here the results but I believe it was a success.

Ixande Rehab Clinic - Cape Town
I was brought in (last minute) to elevate the existing web copy for Ixande. It was clinical and aloof. I wanted to capture the caring nature of the brand and craft a site that focused on the patient rather than the business.

Content Specialist

Gendel Strategic Marketing Group

During my time at Gendel, I lead the Digital Marketing team working closely with the designers and developers on 7-figure bran. My primary focus was building websites that were functional and top-quality sales tools. 

But I also strategized and wrote the copy for Mango Airlines and Glasfit's Facebook accounts.

HIGHLIGHTS
- I strategized and executed the user journey and web copy for Fastjet's booking system.
- I was part of the team that helped grow Mango Airlines Facebook page to just under a million followers in three years
- Because of my work on Glasfit's rebranded website (strategy, research, copywriting, and SEO), we were able to track and analyze users and use the information to inform advertising campaigns. Before, it was believed the brand was male-dominated, but analytics revealed that half the site visitors were female. This allowed us to switch up the advertising to be more inclusive.

Content manager and long-form copywriter

Penguin Books South Africa

Having always loved books, I thought PR would be my dream job. But while I loved touring with and promoting my authors (many of whom were powerhouses in the literary world), I quickly realized that I longed to write. 

HIGHLIGHTS
- Organised and toured with bestselling authors such as Lesley Pearce, Martha Beck, Val McDermid, John van der Ruit, and Mark Gimenez to name a few.
- Filled Michael Robotham's calendar with interviews with leading news outlets (Sunday Times, Saturday Star, 94.7 FM), sold-out speaker events, and Jenny Cryws-Williams Bloody Book Tour.
- Helped launch top South African Chef Jackie Cameron's first cook book.

Hey, I'm Candice, a digital content strategist and copywriter with 10+ years of experience in marketing and advertising. My honours degree in journalism and communication says I'm a licensed storyteller. But it's my knack for crafting compelling websites, emails, and articles that get you these kinds of results: 

✋ Quadruple the # of keywords ranking in the top 100 on Google. 

✋ 42% increase in referring domains. 

✋ Triple the number of monthly sales.  💸

✋ Consistently high-quality content that generates glowing reviews.

Just Google "business systems." 

The first article you see. Well, I wrote that. And every month, it gets roughly 800 unique visitors. 🙌

Over the past decade I've worked with brands like Stratum International, Welwitschia Hospital, Successwise, Fastjet, Bushtec Creations, and Glasfit to deliver copy that connects with their audience and inspires them to act. 

I've had articles published in Forbes Magazine, SmartCompany, LifeHack, Business.com, and many more (just not under my name).

And that's okay. 

Building your authority and pipeline is all I care about... and comments like this, 

"What a great read. Honestly, I believed I'd written it."

Or this, 

"Wow, I love it. I finally feel confident about sending my company profile to the relevant buyers."

And this, 

"Candice's research is phenomenal, and so is her understanding of brand tonality. For us, she was able to translate even complicated medical concepts into easy-to-grasp articles with minimal feedback."

All I need is an hour of your time.

Give me that, and you'll get... 

👉 content that's relatable, full of personality, and, more importantly, gets your prospects to self-identify faster than a kid sneaking a cookie from the cookie jar. 


Let me know when you're ready to do just that.

I've written over 1,000 posts for B2B clients. 

Here's what I've learned ⤵

Most people overcomplicate LinkedIn.

They think more words equal more value. So, they focus on:

- Perfect grammar
- Fancy words
- Complex ideas

But LinkedIn is about starting conversations.

Here's what actually works:

- Writing like you talk
- Using simple words 
- Being vulnerable 
- Speaking to ONE person 
- Leveraging feelings

Simplicity is engaging.
Complexity gets ignored.

LinkedIn Copywriter 

Julia Zatta

I started my online brand in 2014. 

I shared yoga insights and anatomy tips.

My community grew post by post.

Here's what happened next:

• Built a 10K Instagram following from zero
• Created my first digital course
• Launched a YouTube channel
• Connected with yoga teachers worldwide
• Taught hundreds of students online

That journey taught me something surprising:

I loved making complex ideas simple.
I loved social media communication.
I loved building an online community.

That revelation changed everything.

I realised my true calling wasn't teaching yoga anatomy.

It was writing copy that moves people to action.

Today, I help others find their voice on LinkedIn.
