Ryan
Owner
Owner of Scribly Media since 2020, Ryan expanded the company from a copywriting service into a comprehensive content marketing agency.
Ryan is an entrepreneur who knows exactly what it takes to help SMEs succeed. He has run and built multi-million dollar brands on the back of content marketing. We did say we’re all published writers; Ryan is the exception. But we needed someone to handle the boring accounting stuff.
Ryan has always been an entrepreneur at heart, having started his first business, a charity water bottle company, at 18. Unfortunately, he got trapped in a corporate office for a few years before thinking “f*** this”, quitting, and sailing a 30-year-old rusted out boat from New York to Florida while building Scribly to what it is today. (If you saw a seagull in the background of your Zoom call with him in the winter of 2022, no you didn’t 😉). Ryan now calls Portland, Oregon home.
First published piece: Something boring in his university’s investment club’s quarterly publication (we told you he’s not a writer).
Eleanore
Head of Content
An experienced SEO and content strategist, Eleanore joined Scribly to design and execute end-to-end content solutions that support clients’ growth goals.
Elle is our UK-based SEO and content strategist who is typically our first point of contact for clients. She develops and executes the content plans that transform our clients’ businesses and oversees our team of writers, quality-checking every piece of content that walks out the door.
With more than a decade of experience in content working with giants like Nestle, Gilette, No7, and more, she brings incredible knowledge and experience to Scribly. But she much prefers working directly with SMEs, where she can make a big impact for business owners.
Elle is also a triathlete and aquabikest with two world titles to her name - yep, we’re all well-rounded people here!
First published piece: A column for a British newspaper featuring a naked brother and lycra-wearing dad - are you hooked?

Scribly’s Tried & Tested Writing Team
Scribly has a tight-knit team of writers who we have worked with consistently for years. Tried and tested, we know their areas of expertise and their natural writing style.
Scribly has a tight-knit team of writers who we have worked with consistently for years. Tried and tested, we know their areas of expertise and their natural writing style, so we can assign the right writer to your brand, whatever your tone and needs.
And if our strict vetting isn’t enough to convince you of their expertise, maybe their publication history across industry giants like Adobe, Moodle, Skuad, Hotel Engine, and more will.

Is Scribly Media the same company as Scribly.io?
Yes! Scribly Media was founded as Scribly.io in 2018 by Dani Mancini as a productized copywriting service. Some of our writers have been working with Scribly since these early days.
In 2020, she handed over the reins to Scribly’s current owner Ryan Schmidt. The industry has since changed dramatically and we realized our clients need a more holistic and comprehensive solution that copywriting alone couldn’t provide. Ryan brought on Eleanore, an experienced SEO and content strategist, to design and execute end-to-end content solutions that support our clients’ growth goals.
High-quality copy from our incredible team of trusted writers is embedded in Scribly’s DNA—that will never change. But our team has grown so our clients not only get the best writing, they also get the best content and SEO strategy to ensure the copy is having the biggest possible impact.

We said we’ll always be honest and upfront with you and we meant it
Here are some situations where Scribly might not be the best fit for your business
If your business needs immediate results, we would recommend first investing in a paid marketing strategy, before SEO and content. Ideal for short-term campaigns and quick wins, paid ads drive immediate traffic and conversions for as long as your ad is live. Content marketing is slower to gain traction but one piece can attract visitors for months or even years. Paid marketing and content work hand-in-hand but oftentimes our clients don’t have the budget to invest in both at the same time. Which one you prioritize will depend on your unique goals and situation. We’re happy to jump on a call and talk about this in more depth if you need help deciding.
While we can help you narrow down your target market from a content and SEO perspective, we find that businesses who are clear about their ideal client and market positioning will reap the most benefits from content marketing. This allows us to be much more targeted and strategic and actually deliver results for you.
We do one thing and we do it exceptionally well. Our team lives and breathes content marketing and this focus means we know we are providing the best possible service. It also allows us to remain competitive on price. Other aspects of digital marketing, while complementary, do require different skill sets and expertise.
SEO and content marketing takes time. We do everything we can to get short term wins while working toward the larger goals, but SEO and content is ultimately a long term game. Sometimes it can take six months or more to see an impact. We work with clients who are able to invest in a long term strategy and if you need guaranteed results in a shorter timeframe (which is totally understandable), then content marketing services may not be the best fit for you right now.
