Case study
The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS)
The way credit card providers deal with their customers was up for review, and BIS wanted ordinary consumers to be involved in the consulta­tion process. I helped them simplify the consulta­tion, and when the consulta­tion was over I helped them commu­nicate the results of the consulta­tion and explain exactly what the new laws about credit cards would be.

Reviews

“The work Corinne did for our consulta­tion on credit cards was remark­able, creative and beautifully-presented. On a very short times­cale, she turned a 100-page docu­ment into 10 crisp, read­able pages bringing credit card policy to life for everyday consumers. The accom­pa­nying podcast summary she arranged was magni­fi­cent: clear, straight­for­ward and enga­ging.” October 28, 2009

“Corinne is an excel­lent copy­writer who condensed a long-winded dry and complex consulta­tion docu­ment into a friendly, easy to under­stand concise two pager which she styled beau­ti­fully. She then recorded a great podcast explaining the issues, in this case the compex­ities of credit card agree­ments. That piece of work produced fant­astic results and became one of our most popular consulta­tions ever. Corinne also worked incred­ibly quickly — a serious plus when dealing with govern­ment, as was tremend­ously good value. Would defin­itely hire her again. Impressive.” April 27, 2011
