Alyssa Towns (Swantkoski)

I'm a freelance content writer and internal communications specialist for brands building better workplaces, based in Denver, Colorado. Formerly an in-house Senior Communications Manager, I pair lived workforce experience with subject-matter expertise to create content that humans actually want to read. I work on projects related to internal communications, change management, employee engagement, productivity, career development, and the ever-evolving workforce.

I offer long-form content writing services (SEO and non-SEO blog posts, news stories, case studies, white papers, guides, etc.), primarily for B2B companies. Additionally, for teams needing a hand without the budget for a full-time hire, I offer contract internal communications support (or fractional internal comms support) on a limited basis.

If you're looking for professional freelance writing services or ongoing fractional internal comms support (and a trustworthy partner), you're in the right place! I specialize in crafting compelling, high-quality, human-centric content, including: 

• Blog posts (SEO or non-SEO content) and thought leadership
• Guides (lead magnets, resource hub downloads, etc.) and eBooks 
• Long-form data analysis and reports
• Fractional internal comms support (ongoing content creation and development, tactical support for small teams) and contract internal comms (for smaller projects or time-bound engagements)

In addition to writing, I offer communications support and partnership on a limited basis, including:

• Workshops, events, and training sessions (or, in my dream world, on a college campus!)
• Custom projects that are a good fit for my expertise and skills (internal communications-related or otherwise)
• 1:1 power hour support for internal communicators who need someone to brainstorm, plan, or problem-solve with
• Content collaborations and brand partnerships

Need help with a project that isn't about one of the topics listed above? I'd still love to hear from you, especially if you're: 

• A Denver-based company doing great work for our community 
• Needing help with a project related to:
  • Books (nonfiction, self-help, romance, and more)
  • Inspiring creativity
  • Stationery, snail mail, and other paper products
  • Colorado (and especially the outdoors)
  • Mental health 
  • Psychology, especially trauma psychology (my specialization for my undergraduate psychology degree)
    

Are we a match?

We’re likely a great fit if:

• You’re looking for a long-term partner who can consistently support your content development (I love working with my clients on a long-term basis!)
• You need contract internal comms support and want someone with deep internal comms knowledge, who is also tactical
• For long-form content needs, you will provide content briefs to guide the process for thought leadership content (blog posts, guides, eBooks, etc.)
• You’re ready to hand over your content needs to a highly motivated, independent writer and creator, freeing you up to focus on other priorities (and someone you’ll want to work with again and again)

If this sounds like a good fit, I’d love to help you bring your ideas to life!
