Common Questions
How does the referral fee work?
Once your referred client completes and pays for their first project with me, I'll send you 10% of the project value. You can also choose to receive credit toward copywriting for your own business equal to 15% of the project value.
Will you take over the client relationship?
Absolutely not. You remain the primary contact for the overall project. I handle only the copywriting component and keep you informed throughout the process.
What types of projects do you handle?
I specialize in website copy, content marketing, and brand messaging for SaaS, hospitality, and professional service businesses. If a client requires assistance outside my area of expertise, I'll notify you upfront.
How quickly can you turn around projects?
Typical website copy projects take 2-3 weeks from consultation to final draft. Rush projects can sometimes be accommodated for an additional fee.
How do you handle design constraints?
I work closely with both you and the client to understand word count limitations, heading structures, and other design parameters before writing begins.
