What do I charge?
My fees vary from project to project. They depend on things like:
- The size of the piece – both how big it is and how much input I’m distilling into that size.
- The research required – who I need to talk to, how much I need to listen to or watch.
- How much and what I need to read.
- What level of strategic messaging and marketing development is required.
- The number of meetings, calls and the amount of project management involved.
- How many revisions you want to include.
I also have commission arrangements if you’re looking for a long term partner.
It’s the old “how long is a piece of string” – and very variable. Sometimes, the less words I deliver, the longer the distillation process takes.
In the meantime, you need valuable copy or content – so how do we get started?
We start with a Fixed Price Introductory Package
To fill this gap, I offer a limited set of introductory packages. You get to find out whether I’m the right writer for you with a limited risk. I get to understand you, your business and the complexity of your content.
If we decide to continue working together, then we can discuss service and payment options.
