Cindy Cyr held a fascination with writing and what holds a reader’s attention—whether it’s been for friends, family, or colleagues

Right out of college she began a 15-year advertising career where she helped create 1748 ads, consistently produced 43% of the total revenue (in a 6-person sales department), and conceptualized one advertorial product which increased annual revenue by 8% and another that bumped a single sales cycle by 20%.

During this time she learned that copywriters were behind ads, websites, and letters that worked and knew she'd found her niche. That's when she began to focus solely on copywriting.

Over the years she's written sales letters, fundraising letters, brochures, press releases, websites, emails, and more for small to medium-sized companies… such as Derickson Vision Consultants, DeBlaze and Associates, and Skye White Inc., Mike Ryan Fitness, Creative Resume Builders and more.
