Naughton Writing and Consulting is a boutique marketing and communications agency primarily working with cross-border tax and financial service providers. 


Claire moved to France in 2018 and launched a freelance content writing business in 2021.

She quickly fell into the cross-border tax and finance niche due to needing to file her own U.S. taxes. In researching to better understand (and choose a firm to work with), she discovered a genuine passion for understanding how to optimize and plan for her own financial situation as a young expat abroad, despite the limitations and complexities that come with doing so as a U.S. expat. The rest is history! 

Today, she runs a boutique digital marketing agency specializing in creating and/or optimizing digital marketing strategies. Examples of the types of support the agency offers include, but are not limited to: 

  • Blog planning, writing, and ongoing management (designed for AISEO)
  • On-page SEO (keyword research, site audits, content planning)
  • Branding and website design
  • Website development, i.e., creating websites
  • PR writing and thought leadership ghostwriting, e.g., LinkedIn
  • Coaching and writing support for teams building brand evangelist programs on LinkedIn
  • Newsletter writing
  • Webinar marketing support
  • Copywriting (websites, lead magnets, landing pages)
  • Social media marketing (Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, podcasts)
  • Digital marketing company audits 
  • Brand strategy and bringing teams into alignment around core values
  • Fractional Marketing Management retainers

With nearly eight years of experience living overseas and establishing her livelihood abroad as a U.S. expat in France, Claire also brings a deep understanding of the many facets of the U.S. expat community to her work, as well as an ever-growing network of excellent professionals in the many fields that overlap with cross-border tax and financial planning.
