Hi, I’m Nathan Collier
I’m an executive ghostwriter, freelance writer, and former journalist. I translate engineer into English, and I transform experts into thought leaders.
I move fast. My goal is to deliver in days rather than weeks or months.
If you aren't happy with my work, you pay nothing until I get it right.
I’m available when you need me. If you call, I’ll pick up if I’m available. Or I’ll get back to you ASAP.
How I work
I’m a former journalist. In a world of generic content, I put human voices at the center of your marketing.
I’ve worked with dozens of CEOs and executives as a business ghostwriter. I am able to capture and write content in your voice (instead of mine). Here’s how I do it:
I design and execute content strategies that turn you (an/or your internal experts) into thought leaders using written and video content for every part of the funnel.
Unique capabilities
