About Us
The Write Company is a writing, graphic design and marketing consultation firm owned by Patti Samar, a marketing, public relations and communications professional.
And she’s one hip and cool chick, too.
Since 1985, Samar has worked as a marketing and communications professional for a diverse collection of organizations that include educational, financial, health care and governmental institutions.
(And yes, she thinks all of that sounds awfully dry and boring, but if you spend any time with Samar, you’ll quickly realize not much stays dry or boring around her for long.)
Almost Two Decades of Dreaming and Design
The Write Company was founded by Samar in 2000. Over the course of the past two decades, an eclectic and varied collection of clients have been served. Samar is most proud of the fact that:
- her clients include a lot of really, way-super cool people;
- more than 95% of her clients have become repeat customers; and
- most of her clients are referred by other clients…a sure sign of good work!
Awards and Education
Samar is an award-winning writer and graphic designer, whose work has garnered awards from organizations such as the Detroit Press Club Foundation and the Associated Press, among others.
She holds both a master of arts degree in English and writing, and a bachelor of science degree in English from Northern Michigan University in Marquette, Michigan. To learn more about Samar’s formal education and work experience, please check out her resume!
