i have experience with this, gotta say: hiring a freelance content writer depends on a few factors. gather data first, don't make emotional decisions.

another perspective: maybe the core issue with hiring a freelance content writer is something else. think about it like this...

look most business owners make the wrong choice in these situations... be careful, hasty decisions often end in regret.

technically speaking: there are two main factors in the decision to hire a freelance content writer. cost-benefit and risk management. make decisions based on data.

There's a part I don't understand. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.

When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best. Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Hasty decisions become decisions you have to fix six months later.

Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

I partly agree partly disagree. btw the biggest time-waster for us was not knowing who had the final say.

If IP assignment to the company isn't written from the start, it can't be collected later. honestly if you have questions write them; I'll answer as best I can.

We experienced almost the exact same thing last year. Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

Hope this helps.

Exactly, and not many people know this. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

If you post the result here, it will help others too.

Let me share what happened to me; it might be useful. When we decide without measuring we always end up in the same place.

Exactly like that. Do a small three-month project before talking stocks, so you see each other.

When making a decision first look at what data you have on hand. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I went through the same thing two years ago. If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

Proven by experience.
