How It Works

Your simple guide to working with HD Words

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3,...
Step 1, Step 2, Step 3
1

Schedule a call, booking a slot via Calendly at a time that suits us both. An hour is usually about right.

2

Discuss with me what you need, who your audience is, what your budget is, what your outcomes are, what your keywords are.

3

I produce a quote & you approve it, then we discuss source materials, such as web pages or documents setting out your purpose, customer details for writing case studies, etc. We’ll also discuss payment arrangements. For larger projects, I will need upfront and interim payments, and for ongoing work such as blogging, I will require a standing order to be set up.

4

I start work – it’s as simple as that, as far as you’re concerned.
There will be some back and forth as I draft your text, if I have more questions to ask you. I usually check an initial draft of a section of the work to make sure you’re happy with the tone and style before I carry on any further.

5

You approve and publish the final version, and make the final payment. Up to two edits of the completed work are included in the price quoted.

OK, so maybe it’s 1,2,3,4,5… but the main point is that I do number 4, so you don’t have to.

“Working with Hannah Danson has been one of those quietly brilliant collaborations. The kind that doesn’t shout for attention but leaves a lasting impression.

Hannah brings a calm, thoughtful presence to her work. She listens deeply, not just to what’s said, but to what’s meant. That sensitivity shows in the stories she helps shape. Stories that feel honest, grounded, and gently powerful. She has a way of making people feel safe enough to share, and that’s no small thing.

She’s also quietly tenacious. Whether navigating a string of no-shows or coaxing clarity from a hesitant speaker, Hannah keeps going. Not loudly, but with purpose. She’s organised without being rigid, creative without being chaotic, and always generous with her insight.

What I’ve appreciated most is her instinct for what matters. She knows when a story needs space, when a quote sings, and when to let something go. That kind of editorial intuition makes her a joy to work with.

If you’re looking for someone who brings care, clarity, and quiet strength to creative work, I can’t recommend Hannah enough.”

“The [OFSTED checking] process has been very useful for us and I have passed your contact on to my old CEO who I think will be in touch! “

“I approached Hannah to work on this project, as … I knew she would be the best person to use, with her experience and attention to detail…  She edited the text, …and in addition, she made a number of helpful suggestions about extra items which should be included, as well as sourcing that information.
We were working to a tight deadline and Hannah pulled out all the stops to complete the work in just over a week.
I couldn’t have been happier with the work Hannah did, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”

“I hired Hannah to support with copy for my new website. What a breeze! Hannah took my ideas and developed a wonderful feel-good factor which I know inspires my clients for their wedding day. Hannah is very easy to work with and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend.”
