Blog Post Examines the Cost of Freelance Business Writing
A new Word Nerds blog post titled What Should You Pay a Freelance Business Writer for Business Writing? examines the price of business writing from the perspectives of businesses purchasing business writing services and freelance business writers providing business writing services.
Michael Gladkoff, Director of Word Nerds, said there is a lot of confusion about the cost of business writing services.
“Many business people don’t know what they should pay freelancers for business writing services,” he said. “Business writers who are new to freelancing don’t always understand the economics behind running a freelance writing business.”
“This new blog post examines the issue from both sides to determine fair prices for organisations that outsource business writing and viable rates for freelance business writers offering business writing services.”
The blog post creates a hypothetical scenario where ‘Mr Business Writer’ leaves his business writing job to become a freelance business writer.
The post looks at common mistakes made by freelance business writers when setting their business writing fee structures.
From the perspective of purchasers, the post examines the options organisations have when choosing how to outsource business writing.
“The aim of the blog post is not to make pronouncements on what companies should pay, or what freelancers should charge, for business writing services,” Gladkoff said.
“We want to help companies and freelance business writers understand the economics of business writing so that they can make informed decisions.”
