Your production manager will let you know the deadlines for each piece of writing. Typically, work is expected within 24-48 hours of when we send you an assignment notice via email in our project management portal. In order to provide our clients with the best possible turn around times, we ask that our writers monitor their email accounts throughout the day in order to respond to our requests quickly.
At times, you may need to take slightly longer than the targeted completion times. We understand that. But, this is the time we want you to aim for when completing tasks we send you.
If you expect to leave town or be unavailable for a few days, that's no problem at all. Please just give us a heads up so we can assign orders to another writer while you’re away.
What You Might Write About:
We have clients from all industries. In order to be a freelance writer for Copywriter Today, you’ll need to be flexible, creative and be able to write about a wide range of topics at any time (we don’t do adult porn sites or gambling sites, don’t worry!). Our topics vary all the time, but here are some examples of topics we’ve seen before.
How to Manage Your Time
How Technology Affects Our Education System
Why You Should Buy Local
Why You Should Donate to Environmental Preservation
How to Sell Roaches to Lizard Owners
Buying From Your Butcher
Why Manufacturing Your Product with A Local Plastics Company is Wise
These are just examples, but remember you’ll need to be comfortable and able to write about any topic at any time. When possible, we try to pair our writers with the same clients so you get to write similar content on an ongoing basis, but this is not always possible. Are you creative and fast-paced? This job will be exciting and challenging for you.
How Much Can You Earn?
We work to provide a competitive pay rate for the work, but keep in mind this is a business based on freelance labor so that we can provide our clients an affordable service. After you provide us with more information, if we feel like this is a good fit for all of us, one of our managers will contact you and give more details regarding our freelance payment fees. This is a 1099 contractor position, and we do not hire any employees.
Our writers earn between $300 and $800 per week.
Also note that you will be required to securely provide your social security or business EIN so we can provide you with a 1099 at the end of the year. You will also need to provide your checking and routing number so we can process your payment via direct deposit. We pay out bi-weekly (on Mondays) for all work completed and invoiced before 7 a.m. EST on Mondays.
