How I work
Don’t hire me to write your copy. Hire me to figure out what your marketing needs to do. Then I’ll write it.
Most copy fails before a single word is written. A big part of what I do isn’t writing. It’s deciding what should be written, who it’s for, and whether it will actually work: mapping what your donors believe, what they fear and what they already give to, then letting research, testing and audience data decide the message before you spend.
Meet Alte Raskin
Donors don’t give to clever copy.
They give when something moves them. That takes more than a prompt. It takes research, psychology, and the kind of storytelling that makes your mission feel personal to a complete stranger.
I’m a conversion copywriter trained by the masters, and I do one thing: turn hesitant readers into committed donors.
In their words.
“Alte Raskin is one of those rare strategic minds you want in your corner. … Alte’s work is top-tier and I’ve already referred her to others.”
“Her copywriting played a significant role in our successful pitch.”
“We weren’t getting the lift on social media that we used to, even with more followers. I never thought we would gain as much insight as we did in just two sessions with Alte! … She was smart, insightful, practical, and reasonable both in temperament and pricing.”
Here’s how I can help.
Why me, not an agency
Pretty isn’t a strategy.
An agency can make your marketing beautiful. But beautiful on its own doesn’t bring in donations. Knowing exactly who you’re talking to, and what will move them to give, does. I figure that out first. It’s a small piece of the budget, and everything that comes after it works harder.
