Not A Good Writer? Hire One

There are people out there that you can pay to write your press releases, your books, your speeches, your web site content, and even your blog posts. They are called...writers. Or freelance writers to be more specific.

Here are some advantages of hiring a freelance writer:

1) Affordability
Most freelance writers are very affordable to hire. They work from their homes, and have no real overhead - so they are able to pass the savings along to you. Also, as contractors - they have multiple clients, so they don't depend on one or two clients to pay their bills.

2) Speed
Not all freelance writers are super fast, but chances are they can get stuff done faster than you. Because they write all the time, they are used to burning the midnight oil to finish a composition.

3) Quality
Again, not all freelance writers produce high quality work - but chances are they're writing skills are better than yours. Many entrepreneurs, business owners, and even authors lack good writing skills. A freelance writer is usually a person with a degree in journalism, and experience in the journalism industry.

I personally use freelance writers all the time. My favorite is a company called Creative Ankh. In addition to writing, they do editing, publishing, and even literary coaching. Their rates are very affordable, and the turn-around is super quick. For more details, visit www.creative-ankh.com or call (570) 972-0642.

  1. I may not be a good writer but I surely appreciate my editor who knows how to put my thoughts into complete sentences. Henry Ford said it best. He indicated that he focuses on one thing and that is building cars and he hires professionals to do everything else.
