Okanagan copywriters and PR specialists that help your brand shine.

Over the years, we’ve had the chance to work with national retailers, local non-profits, start-ups and government agencies. What all of our clients have in common is the need to tell their story, and have it told exceptionally well.

Our Story

A few moons ago, our founder, Natalie Appleton, was working as a business editor. She loved interviewing entrepreneurs, driven against the odds and the demands of sleep to bring an impassioned idea to the world. One day, she recognized an opportunity to help entrepreneurs translate their enthusiasm and expertise to the page, and that’s when she got her own little business idea…

Read Head Copywriting was founded in 2012, and quickly became a sought-after partner for organizations and agencies that saw how our roots in journalism and superb writing could elevate a brand. As our team and storytelling offerings grew to include a suite ofcopywriting and PR services, in 2020 we changed our name to Read Head Studio Inc. We’re a talented, tenacious team that has stayed small so we can continue taking great care of our clients.

We’re based in Vernon, BC, and proudly serve clients across the Pacific Northwest, including Kelowna, Kamloops, Vancouver, Calgary and more.

Natalie Appleton

When the recession struck and the newspaper industry took a turn, Natalie turned lemons into London. After graduating from City University London (UK), with a Master of Arts in Creative Writing (narrative non-fiction), in 2012 Natalie founded Read Head Copywriting—now Read Head Studio—to help brands tell their stories.

FOUNDER & SENIOR WRITER/STRATEGIST

An award-winning writer who has worked at newspapers across western Canada, Natalie’s work has appeared in publications around the world, including The New York Times. Natalie is also a creative writer and the founder of Read Local Okanagan. Plus, if you’re in a pinch, she can get you around Bangkok on a motorbike.
