Where Creativity meets Compliance

ESG Reports that leaders Read

I’m Erica Eller, and I work with clients as a key collaborator to bring their reports to life. With experience as a both a copywriter and certified consultant, I help companies identify and fine tune strategic narratives that make leaders and investors pay attention.

With experience supporting reporting projects of all shapes and sizes, I work with clients to develop the best report for the context of a given year, while capturing the strength of a brand's continuity over time.

Targeted expertise: As a GRI, IFRS (FSA) and GARP (SCR®) certified reporting specialist with an extensive background in B2B marketing and professional copywriting and editing, I care about both readers and report rigor.

Currently, I’m boosting my credentials with Executive certifications in Risk Management, Governance and Compliance and Climate Risk Management from the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management.

Strategic storytelling: Each client's brand, mission and purpose shapes how they communicate with their audiences. Understanding my clients’ audiences and brand are key to developing narratives that don’t bore the board. As a report copywriter, I lean into my clients’ deep understanding of their brand, while bringing my own fresh perspectives to create messages that stick.

Better reports and results: Working with the right partner helps build momentum throughout the reporting process to identify interesting opportunities to improve, remove process roadblocks, and deepen the understanding of the sustainability positioning of the brand. More than just delivering reports, I offer a productive reporting process that clients can leverage to build the authority of their sustainability strategy.

Investor-grade disclosures: My services help clients bridge the gap between investor expectations and firm-level reporting practices. Beyond supporting clients with reporting standards alignment and best practices, I also identify actionable ways to:

make disclosures decision-useful
establish audit-ready sustainability data quality and controls
engage with stakeholders in a continuous cycle of improvement
organize reporting activities and improvement in a logical sequence

Versatile consulting: My fractional advisory services include roadmaps with gap analysis and benchmarking or qualitative reporting reviews of disclosures during any stage of the client's report development. I help clients both progress their reporting maturity and find better ways frame their data and messaging to strategically enhance their reports.

What do my clients say?

I've received overwhelmingly positive feedback. Many of my clients have asked me to return for multiple year arrangements. I welcome long-term client relationships that develop and mature over time.
