About Doing Words
Hi, I’m Alan Jones, and Doing Words is me.
Since 1995, I’ve consulted to early-stage companies and new product development teams, helping with online strategy for communications, product development and marketing.
I draw on hands-on experience founding and co-founding web and mobile startups, as well as senior management experience in larger companies including Yahoo!, News Digital Media and Microsoft. I mentor and invest in new Australian startups through Startmate and Pollenizer Ventures. I’m a co-founder of digital agency The New Agency, a director of Bugherd, a co-founder of PilatesSource, and one of the co-founders of Trainerplatform. I’m also the Social Media Director for TEDxSydney.
I’m great at product strategy, pitch-doctoring, social media, community-building, online marketing and content licensing.
I can:
• Help you create a brand
• Help you create a tagline, elevator pitch, investor summary, presentation deck, landing page, About Us page, Learn More Page
• Help you improve your pitch for various audiences and settings
• Help you learn how to write great blog posts and tweets
• Connect you to other potential mentors, investors, co-founders and suppliers
• Introduce you to SAAS tools that might help you run your business
• Pick you up when you’re feeling down
• Reach things on the top shelf
Get in touch — if you’re interesting, the coffee’s on me.
- Alan
