Personal Assistance | Podcast Consultation | Copywriting for Inspirational Women & Geek-Driven Entrepreneurs

You want to connect with your audience, your fellowship, your girl gang, your tribe, your… well, whatever you call them… but you just can’t find the time, the words, or the right voice to actually do it?

Word.

You’re growing a busy business. One that you want to spend time IN, connecting, giving solid advice, and helping your clients grow, rather than spending time ON it, doing the nitty-gritty tasks, writing the words you feel stuck behind, and setting up your podcast.

Like, is there anything worse than creating content that’s a struggle to get out and, let’s face it, just doesn’t flow?

You’re not flying solo on this.

We’ve worked with other entrepreneurs, and even small businesses, who just don’t have enough hours in the day to do all the cool things they want to do. Who need that extra voice of accountability and hand to help them stay organised. And who desperately want to find the right words, both written and spoken, to connect with their homefries.

Don’t have a cow!

I had some audio work I wanted done for a project I’m working on. I’ve had a few experiences with third party sites for this type of work and all of them have either been unsatisfactory, mediocre, or just plain expensive. Right away I knew I had to get this work right and I needed someone I could work with, trust, and who would likely share in the passion for what I had envisioned. Thankful Cow not only hit all of those points but far exceeded my hopes. When I first heard the product I had requested I got chills due to the excellence of the work. They nailed it. It was my vision come to life!!! Would highly recommend Thankful Cow to anyone needing creative solutions. Thanks again Thankful Cow!

Ryan McKone

Amanda is a fantastic addition to the DNK team. She is a thoughtful and optimistic person who never fails to put into engaging words what is oftentimes a seemingly boring and uneventful week for me when writing my weekly newsletter. She has been in charge of writing my social media and blog posts and I am super appreciative of the bump in engagement and sales as a result of having her by my side. Thanks Amanda!

Working together with Thom and Amanda was legitimately the best decision of my life as an entrepreneur. What started out with Social Media soon turned into personal and emotional assistance that searches its kind. While Amanda was swinging all the words for my YouTube channel and Facebook Page, Thom not only singlehandedly took care of all the bits and pieces that needed doing for the videos to go live (including editing, making it hilarious and cutting my bullshit out) but also keeping me accountable in actually getting stuff done. My inbox has never been cleaner, I have never felt more supported and I wish everyone had a cow – thanks for everything you do! <3

Incredibly talented and creative. Thankful Cow made an audio intro for my podcast and I was blown away with the quality and the creativity. They really take the time to find out what you want and make it even better than what you expect to get!
