FAQs

Think about what you need help with. Is it media outreach or crisis management? Or maybe you need someone to plan events. List all these tasks. This will help you find someone who matches your needs.
Start by outlining the project goals. Mention any specific tasks like writing press releases or managing social media. Highlight any particular experience you need, such as working in Illinois. This will make it clear what you're looking for.
Estimate how much time each task will take. Think about how urgent the project is. Make sure there's some extra time just in case. This helps in setting clear expectations.
Start by discussing what you would like to achieve. Be clear on what results you expect. Then, list these as specific deliverables. This makes it easier for both of you to stay on track.
Look at their past projects. Ask for examples of their work in similar roles. Check if they have experience in your industry or in a place like Chicago. This helps you understand if they're the right fit.
Have a first meeting to talk about what you want. Be open about your goals and challenges. Use this time to also create a communication plan. This makes sure everyone's on the same page.
