We interview our clients & turn their words into edited blog articles. We ensure that our client's voice, style, personality, passion & expertise comes through -- not our own writing preferences. Thus, we are Editors more than Writers - however, we do suggest based on our (blogging & SEO) experience, best practices & standards
What is your experience with SEO & ad copy?
What is your experience with Google Docs & Spreadsheets?
The 10 of us are located around the East Coast. We are all very tech savvy and responsive. We have a very specific culture of working.
We want to make sure you fit well with us and can add value in your own way. This is as important as your work experience & expertise.
We want a long-standing relationship with you as we are growing fast and want to grow solidly.
Please answer the "workstyle fit" questions below. There are no right or wrong answers, just your preferences.
Please answer from 1 to 4 (1=not really to 4=very much). Where you feel necessary, please elaborate.
Again, none of us are one way or another all the time; how do you mainly prefer to work?
Do you prefer to work on 1 thing at a time?
Or do you find yourself jumping midstream from one thought or task to another?
Are you more turned on by the idea?
Or seeing it through (the result)?
Are you more inclined to focus on the logistics?
Or are you more inspired by the opportunity?
Left to your own time, would you rather create something new,
Or clean up a mess?
Do you function better in a systematized process
Or do you prefer to figure it out as you go along?
Do you feel structure binds you or enables you?
Do you enjoy re-creating the wheel or refining the wheel?
Do you feel a duty or a sense of responsibility to complete or fulfill an objective?
Do you feel an inner burning desire, an irrational obligation, to create, like an artist?
How do you clean your home or desk? How often? What patterns?
Thanks for helping us get to know you, beyond your resume.
“I sell words according to your demands. It’s yours for the asking.”
To anyone who's looking, it's clear: the demand for content is increasing daily and on a dramatic scale.
Content attracts everyone from the educated, smart generation in a hurry to build their networks, to those who just want to know what's selling best at their local supermarket.
Whatever the information, I deliver honest writing that can deliver your message as powerfully as you require.
My strong belief is that readers should be presented with content that's easy to understand and doesn't challenge with complex language and other difficulties.
I look forward to doing business with YOU!
Hello there !
The professionalism asserted in the job description is impressive indeed.
I'm a teacher and love to write. I have some experience with Google docs and spreadsheets (gained during my days of managing collective assignments in college) and being the tech-savvy person that I am, picking up concepts of SEO and ad copy shouldn't be a problem at all.
Now for your questions :
Do you prefer to work on 1 thing at a time?
>>> 4 (very much so !)
Are you more turned on by the idea?
>>> 3 ( ideas excite me but the end results also running at the back of my mind simultaneously)
Are you more inclined to focus on the logistics?
>>> 2 (inspired by the opportunity)
Left to your own time, would you rather create something new,
>>> 4 (definitely create something new. I'm currently toying with LEDs in my free time now).
Do you function better in a systematized process
>>> 3 (prefer a systematized process though sometimes am willing to experiment and find out if the process can be changed).
Do you feel structure binds you or enables you?
a systematized process 4 (strongly feel so, unless the structure itself is intelligently designed)
Do you enjoy re-creating the wheel or refining the wheel?
>> 1 (enjoy refining the wheel)
Do you feel a duty or a sense of responsibility to complete or fulfill an objective?
>> 4 strongly feel so
