What are the goals of my copywriting project?
Before hiring a freelance copywriter, think about what you want. Do you need words for a website, a blog post, or an ad? Knowing your project goals helps you find the right person for the job. It makes sure you both understand what needs to be done.
What tone and style should the copy have?
Decide how you want your message to sound. Should it be friendly and fun or serious and formal? This helps the freelance copywriter write in a way that matches your brand. Clear instructions on tone and style make the work better.
What is my timeline for the project?
Having a schedule is important for planning. When do you need the copy completed? Talk about the deadline with the copywriter. It helps both of you stay on track and meet expectations.
What are the key topics or keywords to include?
Think about important words that must be in the copy. Keywords are critical, especially if you want the copy to be found online. Share them with the freelance copywriter so they can do their job right.
What format should the final copy be in?
Decide how you want to receive the finished work. Should it be in a Word document, Google Doc, or another format? Telling the copywriter this early on saves time and avoids confusion.
Who is the target audience for the copy?
Knowing who will read the copy is crucial. Are you talking to kids, teens, or adults? When the freelance copywriter knows your audience, they can write words that connect better with them.
What examples of my brand’s voice can I provide?
Show the copywriter how your brand usually talks. Share examples like past campaign materials, blog posts, or social media messages. This helps them understand your voice and keep it consistent.
What is my budget for editing and revisions?
Copywriting often needs tweaking before it's perfect. Decide how much you’re okay with spending on edits. Agreeing on this with the copywriter helps set clear expectations for everyone.
Who will approve the final copy?
Decide who gives the thumbs up for the final copy. It could be you or someone else on your team. This person should be available to review and approve so the project moves smoothly.
What communication method will we use?
Choose the best way to chat with your copywriter. Would you prefer emails, phone calls, or video meetings? Picking one helps keep the conversation clear and makes everyone’s job easier.
