FAQs
What is your typical process for working on a project?
While all projects vary slightly, here is a standard flow that I follow for new projects:
Discuss the project: This is where you can share with me all about your brand and your creative aspirations for it. I also have some helpful onboarding questions to make sure we cover all of the important details!
Assemble a quote and creative brief: Based on your content needs and brand history, I will assemble a quote and creative brief for the project.
Begin work on content assets: Once the quote is approved, I will begin the writing process.
Submit for client review (1st round): Based on the agreed-upon milestone dates, a draft will be submitted for feedback. I am highly collaborative and receptive to feedback and edits.
Make requested revisions: With your feedback, I will update the creative assets and seamlessly integrate any structural, pacing, or wording changes as needed.
Submit for client review (2nd round): The updated version will be sent back to you for another review.
Finalize and proofread: Once you sign off and are satisfied with the content, it will be finalized and polished, making it ready for publication or production.
How do you handle revisions and feedback?
I am a highly collaborative and communicative writer! While I pride myself on years of experience and writerly intuition, I also trust that my clients know their brands best. I am happy to work with you or your team members to ensure that edits are fully considered and integrated so that you feel that the content hits as close to the mark as possible.
What’s your turnaround time for projects of this size?
In the initial quote, I will outline a timeline for completing the project, which will depend on its size and scope. Turnaround time also depends on the pace of communication and how quickly I receive feedback during each phase of the process.
Do you use any tools for editing or collaboration?
Unless you have an established workflow in place, I typically work in Google Docs, since it is easier to share documents and note revisions. Project deliverables are tracked in Asana. Additionally, I use Grammarly for the proofreading round to ensure everything is polished.
Speaking of Grammarly, what are your thoughts on AI?
The content and copy I write are 100% human and free from LLM generation. I respect that AI content creation can be helpful for some businesses and individuals; however, it is part of my craft and training to fully embrace the process of writing from scratch. I use Grammarly—an industry standard for editing—for final proofreading suggestions.
What are your rates (hourly, per word, per project)?
My standard copywriting rate is $120/hour and $0.20-$1.00/word, depending on the publication. Rates are negotiable for project bundles and month-to-month retainer agreements.
Complimentary or heavily discounted copywriting and web content plans for non-profits on a case-by-case basis. I believe in communities strengthened by the freedom of speech, equality and justice for all, as well as environmental protections and preservation.
Do you offer package deals or retainers?
Yes! I am happy to negotiate based on your budget, project goals, and/or ongoing content needs. Retainers can be beneficial for clients who have a content strategy that requires regular publishing across their channels (e.g., website, blog, social media, newsletter, etc.).
