(March 23, 2023) After a qualifying process requiring writing samples, references and other credentials, Thomas Marketing Services Corporation principal, Tom Lanen, has become a Professional Member of The International Association of Writers & Editors (IAPWE).
This is all in an effort to reposition Tom from a full service advertising and marketing agency brand strategist and creative director, to a role now focused on providing freelance writing services to retail, hospitality, healthcare, entertainment, & technology sectors. He will also continue as a digital and brand marketing tactician, including website creation, social media, and permission email marketing.
From the IAPWE website:
The IAPWE or International Association of Professional Writers & Editors is an organization dedicated to providing helpful resources to writers and editors and disseminating helpful ideas and resources across the greater professional community in the form of outreach, blogging, networking and thought leadership.
In addition to providing free resources for our members, we are always seeking talented writers and editors to help create engaging, locally relevant, educational and inspirational content to help support our outreach efforts. We believe in paying our writers and editors a competitive wage, unlike many of the “content mills” and comparable low-paying clients and/or companies.
The IAPWE is also dedicated to bringing the most updated, legitimate and vetted writing and editing job opportunities to its members.
Currently, there are many different websites containing both legitimate as well as illegitimate writing and editing job opportunities and we make available, in one place, all of the opportunities that have been determined to be legitimate across over 100 different websites.
In addition to this, the IAPWE provides helpful tools, resources and networking opportunities for professional writers and editors, as well as making all members aware of potential writing job scams.
