A

Whether you need clear web copy, detailed case studies, project spotlights, RFT's, industry white papers or publication-ready articles, Custom Content helps your organization communicate with authority and precision—without losing the authenticity that builds trust in the construction industry.​

Simon Principle at Custom Content

Hey, I’m Simon, a former contractor who traded his toolbelt for a keyboard.

​

After two decades in residential construction and renovation, I understand the language of the industry...because I’ve lived it. Now, I combine that hands-on experience with professional writing to help construction businesses and industry publications stand out online and in print.

 

My style is clear, compelling, and grounded in real-world experience; shaped by years of business ownership, thorough research, and a deep respect for the power of well-chosen words.​

Here's what clients have to say about us. HINT: It's all good.

Jordan Calderon

Founder of Top 100 Ranked Marketing Company in US | Omnichannel Growth For B2B & B2C Tech Companies | Founder & President of StratDev | 2x Exits | TEDx Speaker | Wine Enthusiast

"We needed a writer who could step in, see the bigger picture, and create content that actually moved the needle.

He delivered; bringing clarity, consistency, and measurable results.

He’s led content writing for one of our top SEO clients, helping drive a 213% increase in organic traffic, a 900% boost in conversions, and a 2x jump in average deal size.

That’s real growth, and it doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of writing that’s smart, strategic, and built to perform.

But what’s impressed me most is how Simon made a bold career pivot into this space with a level of focus and adaptability that’s hard to teach. He owns his work, meets every deadline, and always thinks beyond the brief.

More than a writer, he’s a partner in growth.
If you’re building something that matters, he’s the kind of person you want on your team."

Lindsay Adams

Managing Editor & Social Media Coordinator at Lester Communications Inc.

Simon is a highly skilled technical writer. I commissioned him to write a high-level piece for a client organization, for which we had scant details to get started. His final piece exceeded my client's expectations, and he delivered in advance of the agreed deadline.

Catherine Adcock

Marketing Professional | Multimedia Content Creator | Copywriter | Photographer

Simon has been writing articles for Emerge2 since early 2024. His personal experience and writing skills come through in every engaging article he produces.

​

Simon works well within our timeline and delivers high-quality content that aligns with the tone and goals of our publication. We collaborate with Simon to determine article topics, and then he takes care of the rest.

​

His communication is top-notch, and we value the opportunity to continue our partnership. I’d be happy to recommend Simon to any business looking for a reliable and talented writer.
