Results matter. And most often, results begin with an eye-catching website landing page; a newsletter featuring your company’s accomplishments; or an informative business blog. Someone has to write the copy. If you’re that someone, and you’re struggling to keep up in addition to all of your other responsibilities, hiring a freelance writer might be the perfect solution.


Staffing/Overhead

You need a copywriter, but not full-time. Contracting out the work as needed cuts overhead expenses, because you're not paying a regular salary and benefits.


Time Management

Whatever you'll be paying a freelance copywriter, it will be worth it. Producing detailed or complex material can easily consume many hours. Your writing project will have a professional, polished look that you didn't have to spend the time to create. It also allows you to focus on priorities.


Flexibility

Over the course of a year, you will be dealing with a variety of documents, anything from a proposal to a user manual to an annual report. Freelance writers range from generalists to specialists. You have the flexibility to contract a freelancer whose skillset and talents suit the specific project at hand.


Cost Options

You might think that you can't really afford a copywriter every time a new project raises its head. But your company will always have writing needs. Since you can negotiate terms with a copywriter, you can choose to spend more on that important grant proposal than the quarterly report.


Quality Control

Even if your company has an in-house writing staff, it might be run by a different department head. When you hire a copywriter for your writing projects, you can keep tabs on the quality of work, amount of time spent and how much contact.
