FAQs

To define clear deliverables, start by creating a detailed project brief that outlines your objectives, target audience, content style, tone, and format. Specify the number of pieces or total word count, as well as any deadlines or milestones. Providing examples or templates can help clarify your expectations, ensuring the freelance content editor fully understands the scope and requirements of the project.
Evaluate the freelance content editor’s portfolio to review samples of their previous work, focusing on the quality, consistency, and relevance of their editing style. Look for testimonials or reviews from past clients on their Contra profile. If needed, consider requesting a small paid test project to further gauge their editing skills and how well they align with your requirements.
Establish a communication plan by agreeing on the primary communication channels, such as email or a messaging app, and set regular check-in meetings or updates to track progress. Clearly identify who will be the main point of contact and decide on any collaborative tools you might use for project management and file sharing. By setting these guidelines early, you can enhance collaboration and ensure the freelance content editor is aligned with the project’s goals.
