From pen
to paper

What do you get when you put five language-lovers and an office dog on the fifth floor in the heart of Hasselt?

It sounds like the start of a good joke, but the answer is simple: ZINNIG. Since 2018, we’ve been bringing stories to life amid the aroma of coffee, the clatter of keyboards, and views of city hall. Stories for our clients, that is.

From museums eager to bring their collections to life to hospitals looking to share their expertise through in-house magazines. And from companies wanting to translate their brand values into compelling copy to organisations hoping to share their message in multiple languages.

Masters of the craft

Curious minds

Writing about oesophageal manometry? The life of Rubens? Industrial steam generators? SAP solutions? Maybe not off the top of our heads – we don’t know everything, and we don’t pretend to. We’re professional question-askers (certified nosey parkers, if you will) who keep digging until we get to the heart of the matter.

Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years, it’s this: great copy starts with the courage to admit you don’t have all the answers. A healthy dose of wonder beats know-it-all every time. That’s how ZINNIG turns your expertise into clear, captivating content tailored to your audience.

As copywriters, we always start with a deep dive into your organisation.

Because only once we truly understand what you want to say (and who you want to say it to), can we find the right words. Call it strategic writing with a flair for language. Or the ability to listen before we type.

Want to feed our appetite for words and find out how ZINNIG can help your brand or organisation? Feel free to stop by for a cup of coffee any time. The best stories always start with a good chat.
