About Me

Profile Type: Individual
Year Founded: 1999
Number of Employees: 1
With nearly 10 years' experience writing online and for various clients, I have the experience, dedication, and attention to detail that your company is looking for. Whether you need a brochure to highlight a new product or service, an informational article to attract website visitors, or an online video of your new software to put on your blog, I can help you.

My clients over the years have included small software companies, lawyers, healthcare professionals, online retailers, educational professionals, and others. I pride myself on delivering quality content that exceeds client expectations and provides the desired impact on the reader from start to finish.

I offer continual contact throughout the project, with weekly updates so you can offer as much or as little feedback as you like - and you never have to wonder if the project is on target for meeting the deadline. If you have a large project and aren't sure where to begin, I'll work with you to come up with a workable project scope that will make the tasks manageable and the goals clear for everyone involved.

My ultimate goal is to have clients who are not simply satisfied, but thrilled with the work that I complete. Whether it's a five-minute tutorial video or a 50-page ebook, your company will have a professional, well-polished piece that you will be delighted to show to customers, website visitors, and potential business partners.


Payment Terms

Turnaround times will vary depending upon the complexity of the piece, the amount of research required, and the types of formatting your document may require. However, in general, I can offer a 3-day turnaround on any article or website content of 1000 words or less. Larger works, such as E-books, videos, and CD/DVD compilations of such works may take anywhere from 2 weeks to several months, depending upon the size of the project. Talk to me about your needs and your deadline and I will be more than happy to work with you to get your content created in a time-frame that suits your needs. I do offer rushed service, however, I charge an additional fee for any works that must be on an expedited time-frame in order to compensate for additional hours required to complete the task on-schedule while maintaining high quality.

I recognize that businesses and professionals who use Elance are looking for trustworthy, reliable individuals. Therefore, in order to establish a good working relationship with new clients, I prefer to deal with escrow services for the first project. However, once a business relationship is established, I am more than willing to complete work with payment due upon full delivery of the project.

I am flexible with payments for large projects, and you can split the payments over the course of the project itself on a monthly or weekly basis as negotiated. Additionally, I offer discounts for those who use my services long-term (6+ months). If you aren't sure about your project's potential costs, or you need a special rate for a one-time project, I'm wiling to negotiate hourly or by the page rates as well.
