financial writer
How much do you charge? I work hard to keep my overhead low and my rates affordable for all budgets. In general, you can expect to be quoted from $0.25-.35 per word for basic articles, blog posts and Web content and up to to $0.45 per word for pieces for certain research-intensive ghostwriting projects or content that requires interviews. These prices include the cost of proofreading services provided by an independent copy editor.
What kind of projects do you take on? I take on content writing projects that are business, finance, marketing or insurance related. This includes white papers, press releases, print and Internet articles, blog posts, reports, video scripts, instruction manuals, books and more. I also create Twitter and Facebook status updates for clients to enter into their feeds.
What can I expect when working with you? One of the most important things you can expect is to receive quality work on time. When I agree to a deadline for your project, you can sleep at night knowing that you will actually receive your content on the agreed-upon date. And since I provide oversight on the content I create by working with a professional copy editor with a print industry background, you can be confident that your projects will be in compliance with AP or Chicago Manual of Style guidelines and will be free of spelling and grammatical errors.
In terms of content development, I have the ability to create funny, quirky posts should you need them. When ghostwriting, I work to develop the right voice for your project by studying your notes and existing content/marketing pieces. When you hire me to be your mouthpiece, I have a responsibility to you to get your voice right—and I do.
