Tell the truth. Tell it artfully.
Your brand already has a story, Our job is to discover what it is and tell it strategically, honestly, and vibrantly. We eschew smoke & mirrors and marketing that tells customers “what they want to hear.” Real, human-centered messaging grounded in your authentic truths and vision is always the best way to the audience’s heart.

Accolades
ANNA SHIELDS — SNOWVILLE CREAMERY
“Verb Garden's services have been a tremendous asset to our business. The process from start to finish was rooted in first taking in our story, our vision, our values. As with most businesses, when you're entrenched in the busyness of keeping the day-to-day operations going, it can be challenging to clearly communicate what it is that you do, what you stand for, in a clear and impactful manner. Chris' expertise allowed us to hone our messaging, and find power in our work through carefully crafted copywriting. The final result left us in tears. We felt seen, we felt strength, we found unity in our messaging through Chris' beautiful articulation of our story.”
JESSICA KITTRELL — 101 BEER KITCHEN
“Working with Chris took the stress out of finding the right words. She spent time getting to know our brand which enabled her to use language that sounded like “us.” She was able to convey who we are in a way I had never been able to but that still felt right at home. I absolutely loved working with Chris! ”
SARAH E. KLEIN, MA, LPCC — COUNSELING FOR RESTORATION
“Chris gets to the heart of who you are and what you do. You come away feeling seen & heard and described in a way that you could never do yourself. She captured the essence of me & my business and brought me to tears!”
ANGELA CASEY, MD — BOARD-CERTIFIED DERMATOLOGIST
“The ability to tell the story that creates connection and emotion with the customer is one of Chris' many talents. She took our message and sculpted it into a clear, concise, and beautiful note. We are appreciative of the collaborative approach that she took with Bright Girl skincare--truly listening to our visionc, and then sprinkling in her own magic--and communicating it so precisely.”
STEPHEN M. BULEN — FRANKLIN COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS
“Chris has helped to truly transform our Precinct Election Official Training manual into an award-winning publication that is showcased as a standard of excellence throughout all 88 counties of Ohio and even in other states. Whenever edits are needed from one election to the next and our staff struggles with how a procedure should be written, we will generalize the concept and agree that “Chris will know how to make it sound good!” And 100% of the time – SHE DOES! I highly recommend Chris as writer who will partner with you and who will exceed your expectations.”
JEREMY SLAGLE — GRAPHIC DESIGNER, SLAGLE DESIGN
“I have had the privilege of collaborating closely with Chris Myers for nearly 15 years. Throughout our partnership, I have witnessed, firsthand, her exceptional skills in comprehending clients’ needs and helping them create lasting, authentic messaging that resonates with their audience and sets them apart from the competition. Chris truly stands out as a superb creative ally, bringing an invaluable depth of insight and proficiency to our creative projects.”
DAVID YUGOVICH — YDESIGN CREATIVE
“It is a privilege to share my experience working with Christine Myers, a talented writer and creative strategist with whom I have had the pleasure of collaborating for over 25 years. Our professional journey began at Bath and Body Works, where we worked together and forged a strong partnership. Since 2005, we have both established our own creative businesses, continuing to collaborate closely. As a creative director and designer, I can confidently say that working with Chris elevates every project to new heights. Her strategic insights and exceptional writing skills complement my creative, enabling us to consistently deliver results that exceed our clients' expectations. Chris’s contributions make every project not just better, but remarkably better, enhancing the quality and impact of our work.”
JOEY LAUREN — KLOWLAB CONSULTANTS
“Chris is truly remarkable at adapting to different brand voices. She takes the time to research and fully grasp the essence of each brand she works with, ensuring that all copy is authentic and aligns perfectly with the brand's identity. Chris has a remarkable ability to craft compelling and engaging content that resonates with our target audience. Her keen understanding of tone, style, and the nuances of effective communication has significantly contributed to the success of many marketing campaigns. If I had to describe Chris in one word it would be “invaluable.””
ERIC MCGLADE — CEO/CO-FOUNDER VPL
“I've had the great pleasure of working with Chris for several years, across many marketing projects. She has an uncanny ability to just listen and distill a lot of "words and information" into something that resonates with your prospects - pulling disparate thoughts into a coherent message. Beyond her strong marketing skills, you will truly enjoy working with her. Chris has an easy-going, positive personality that makes it very easy to work with her. Bottom line, you will have a great experience with Chris, with outstanding marketing material as the end-result.”
BOB DAWSON — THREAD PATH MEDIA
“I’ve been producing videos for over 25 years, and Chris is my go-to writer. She not only brings a strong creative vision to my projects, she also serves as an incredible voice and on-camera talent. Whether it’s industrial video or internal training for non-profits, Chris and Verb Garden are really a ‘one stop shop.’ They exceed my expectations on every project!”
