Cogent and engaging copy from a highly experienced, marketing-led copywriter who is available for hire, by the hour, by the day, by the pound, by the hook and by the crook.


Time to look at those potentially sticky issues (mainly cost-oriented) which are best addressed sooner, rather than later.









I always agree costs up front, so you'll never be in for any surprises...

THE COPYWRITER'S NECK ON THE LINE
… How I sell what I sell
I've been a professional copywriter for over 15 years, so I know what I'm doing – i.e., there's no learning curve, I'm quick and I'm accurate. The cost, which I quote before I start, is dictated purely by the length of time I believe I'm going to spend working on your behalf. To help put my fees in perspective, a crisp and polished sales letter would set you back the princely sum of £350 - £500 +VAT; a 12 page A4 brochure would be £1,000 - £1,250+VAT. And by the way, those costs allow for two sets of amendments to the first draft.
What does it cost?
My base charge is £500 a day +VAT.

When would I have to pay?
First job, 50% pro forma, balance on completion payable 31 days following date of invoice.





What does your charge cover? The first draft and two sets of (moderate) amends

And if I really don't like what you write?
I'll waive the balance of the fee.

How would I brief you?
Ideally over the telephone and by e-mail - meetings are costly so I try to keep them to a minimum.
What do you need from me?
As much or as little as you want to give me.

How many changes can I make?
As many as you like, but all time spent making changes after the first two sets of amendments will be charged.
