A Bio for Steve Knapp, Technology Copywriter

In 1989, after a few years teaching communications, I began my freelance career writing computer documentation and training materials for several Fortune 500 companies. During those projects, I discovered a knack for engaging technical experts, understanding the products they develop, and then turning that knowledge into clear, compelling communications for technical and nontechnical audiences. These unique skills have enabled me to focus my business on copywriting for high tech and industrial companies, translating and logically structuring complex ideas to create messages that establish credibility and persuade and sell.

My writing services encompass articles (including success stories and ghosted features), brochures, catalogs, data sheets, direct mail, press releases, speeches, and web content.

My client list includes Arrow ECS, Automated Logic, BellSouth, GE Spacenet, Heery International, IBM, Lynk Systems, Knowlagent, MAPICS, NetVendor, Netifice, NetRail, Peregrine, Recall, Oracle, S1 Corporation, Siemens, Scientific-Atlanta ESD, Synquest, Tensar, The Weather Channel, and Webtone.
