Social Media Copywriting for a Fine Wine Retailer · Singapore Market

2021 Singapore Market via Anomali Studio
Why This Case Study
🌐
This work demonstrates that my copywriting isn't limited to Indonesian-language content for local brands. Writing for Winehours meant writing entirely in English, for a Singaporean audience, in a category (fine wine) that demands a specific register — sophisticated but not stuffy, warm but not casual. It's proof that I can adapt voice, tone, and market sensibility across languages and borders.
Overview

The Work

Winehours is a Singapore-based fine wine retailer. As part of my role at Anomali Studio, I managed their English-language social media content — writing captions, promotional campaigns, and educational posts aimed at wine enthusiasts in the Singapore market.

This wasn't translation work. Every piece was written directly in English, calibrated to the expectations of a Singapore audience: a market that skews international, values quality curation, and responds to content that balances aspiration with approachability. The tone had to feel effortlessly knowledgeable — like advice from a trusted sommelier, not a sales pitch.

  • 04Maintained a consistent brand voice across all content types — promotional and educational — keeping Winehours sounding like a knowledgeable friend rather than a retailer
