For The Dreamers, And The Schemers…

Break Free From Soulless Copy Templates

Attract Your Ideal Clients With Magnetic Messaging…

And Convert Them With Your OPUS

Hi, I'm Rebecca Holland, and I help brands and individuals level up their writing with words that inspire, empower and entertain.

Hey, I’m Rebecca.

I’ve been playing with words for fifteen years. From drafting commercial contracts to crafting website copy…

My passions are compelling storytelling and witty wordplay. It’s why I read 150+ books a year, and why I created Velvet Opus, a book blog that morphed into a freelance writing business.

And I’m all about rad writing that inspires, empowers and entertains. Words that make people feel good.

I’m on a quest to help brands and individuals level up their writing with my signature storytelling and the right words.

It’s nice to meet you.

I Can Translate You Into Words

MAGNETIC MESSAGING

Stand-out brands start with a unique brand voice. It’s deeper than simply words. It includes your brand rally cry, acts as a consistent guide for everyone in your business, and includes magnetic messaging to attract your ideal clients.

YOUR OPUS

Your OPUS is your sales page, aka the money maker. It’s where we empower your ideal clients to make the best damn decision of their life by knocking their actual socks off. We’ll have them screaming “yes! That sounds EXACTLY like me!”

COPY STRATEGY

I read, research and write, so you don’t have to. Whether you want a lead attraction roadmap, a clarity call to hash out your marketing strategy, or an audit of your existing website, I am here to support you in your biz every single step of the way.

Client love

“Rebecca took a look at our Subscribe and Save page. Originally, we had bullet points that explained the program. She gave three succinct tips to improve the copy, which could be applied to the rest of our website too! We’re very happy that Rebecca provided actionable and applicable solutions!” – Megan Taylor, Bound4Books bookstore
