Frequently Asked Questions for Freelance Copywriters & Content Strategists

Should freelance writers charge per word or per deliverable?

Project/deliverable pricing (e.g., $1,600 for a homepage rewrite) earns significantly higher effective hourly rates and gets faster CFO sign-off than hourly or per-word logs.

What should I include so enterprise AP departments pay on time?

Include your company/sole-prop name, an explicit Invoice #, PO # (if issued), issue date, Net 15/30 due date, and direct payment instructions.

Can I switch currencies for UK or EU agency clients?

Yes—switch between USD, GBP, EUR, CAD, and AUD in one click.
