TIPS to find and work with writers:

  • Look for a writer who is familiar with your topic and the type of writing you need. Some writers specialize in article writing while others write press releases, sales letters, and ebooks.
  • Choose writers who are native-English speaking. If you outsource writing to other countries, you will likely not be happy with the quality of the writing and you'll spend time editing.
  • When using any freelance site to find writers, look at the feedback they have received from buyers.
  • Ask to see samples of their writing.
  • Order a small job first to see if you like the writer's style and content.
  • Provide specific instructions. Mention the purpose, what you're promoting, the writing style you want (business, casual), if you want quotes, stories, and more.
  • Tell them what information and topics you want them to include. Many writers will ask you to give them a couple of keywords. But the more information you provide the better.
  • Pay a fair price. If you find a good writer, hold onto them by paying them a fair price. Constantly trying to find new cheap writers can cost you more in time and frustration.
