Copywriting
Projects are individually priced and billed, with all fees agreed beforehand. Where additional work or changes to the brief will affect costs, this too will be discussed and agreed in advance. As a guide, copywriting fees are based on £40 per hour, or £250 per 7.5 hour day, for work from home or within a 50 mile radius.
Discounts are available for advance weekly bookings. Late cancellations will incur a 17.5% fee.
Evening, weekend or very quick turnaround is charged, by prior agreement, at £80/hr. As my clients know, however, I am flexible and reasonable.
What type of writing do you require?
If you're not sure which of the above categories your project falls into, please contact me for free, no-obligation advice.
