You won’t find a harder-working writer anywhere else! I contacted Steve when we needed a writer for a business with very specific needs and incredibly high standards—and he did not disappoint! Not only does Steve have deep manufacturing industry experience and insights, but he’s also easy to communicate with, listens to client needs, and goes above and beyond to create premier content. The work he produced was outstanding and performed well. It was a joy getting to know him throughout our content-writing engagement. Can’t wait to work with him again!

When we first started blogging, we were struggling to get our blog posts completed efficiently. Steve helped us get our thoughts organized and on paper and also made recommendations as to how we could improve our lead magnet and website in general.

Steve has a special gift for making dry subject matter interesting and easy to consume – and that’s not an easy thing to do. He’s friendly, down to earth and very easy to work with. After five minutes talking with him you’ll feel like you’ve been old friends for years. Don’t hesitate to call him. Great guy.

Steve contributes to the Uberflip Blog on an ongoing basis and is exactly what you want in a freelance writer, and more. Not only is he an expert in his field and an engaging writer (his pieces are always hits with our audience), he’s a complete professional and so easy to work with.

He routinely beats deadlines and approaches his work with a genuine enthusiasm – I always know I’m going to get great results.

The Data Rescue Center/Prosoft Engineering Recommendation
Steve wrote quality, in-depth technical content for our blogs and website for several years. He has an extensive technical background and has been able to learn about our products and company very quickly.

With that he has been able to provide us with great content as if he were an actual in-house employee. Steve has strong writing skills, great grammar, quick turn around and pays attention to details.

I would highly recommend him.
