About

Olivia Dunn, brand consultant, copywriter and strategist.

Meet Olivia Dunn (Liv)

I’m a brand copywriter, strategist and consultant with over 20 years of marketing and writing experience. 

I set up Profound in late 2021, and as the business has grown, I’ve assembled a small, hand-picked team of associates to draw on for bigger, more complex projects. While great copywriting is foundational to what we offer, it’s the strategic thinking and creative conversations we facilitate that set us apart.

Check out some of my recent projects with brands like University College Oxford, Breast Cancer UK, Multiverse, Polyvine, Pawpear and Optix Solutions.

I spent the previous decade in-house at two management consultancies in the higher education, charity and nonprofit sectors. There, I led internal marketing and also worked with national brands on high-level and often multi-million-pound fundraising campaign communications.

Words run in my blood. My dad is a retired journalist and copywriter, my mum’s a retired teacher and an award-winning poet, two of my sisters run Siblinc – a successful fashion product description agency, and my other sister is a bilingual voiceover artist.

Also an accomplished fiddle player, I’m the author of ‘How to Market Your Music on a Budget‘ – available as an ebook or paperback via Amazon.

I’m a nature lover and forager, living on the banks of the River Tamar with my lovely husband, daughter and Cassie the cavapoo.

Drop me a line, and please also connect with me on LinkedIn.

Profound values

Principles:
We do the right things for the right reasons. It’s not always the easy choice, but we’re up for the brave and sometimes difficult conversations, always providing an equal balance of support and challenge with kindness. We make ethically driven decisions that are best for the planet, our brand, our clients and colleagues.

Standards:
We care about what we do, and the work that our clients do. We’re proud of our professionalism and expertise and will never settle for less than our absolute best. Our standards are high, and we’re sticklers for accuracy and detail, without losing sight of the big picture.

Connection:
We believe in the power of human connection – it’s the secret to effective, convincing and authentic communication. We invest in forging meaningful relationships with clients that are based on mutual trust. And that’s where the magic happens.
