Copywriters are responsible for the linguistic content of adverts. They work
across a range of media and formats, interpreting account briefs to compose
advertorial content such as slogans, catchphrases, tweets and scripts for tv
and/or radio adverts.
Brand strategists work closely with brand managers, marketing specialists, and
social media managers to develop methods to enhance a brand’s visibility and
market share. This role balances creative, analytical, and strategic thinking.
Brand strategists conduct rigorous analysis and market research to understand
customer behavior, then use that information to develop marketing strategies
that raise brand awareness, drive customer growth, improve a brand’s
positioning, and generate revenue. Brand strategists work in both traditional
and digital advertising agencies, as well as in company-specific marketing
departments.
