PROCESS:

Initially, we speak to new clients face-to-face or on the phone to discuss needs, goals, and timelines. We follow up with a written statement of work that specifies tasks, deadlines and cost. Once the client signs the statement, work begins.

Clients may provide background information for the project or they may refer WORDS THAT SING to outside content experts. In some cases, clients rely on WORDS THAT SING to identify and contact sources.

At the beginning of the project, WORDS THAT SING often prepares a sample -- a few paragraphs or a page -- to make sure the tone and content are appropriate.

Clients have the opportunity to review all content. Their suggestions and changes are included in subsequent drafts.

FEES:

The scope and duration of the project, as well as the current workload at WORDS THAT SING, influence the fees and the turnaround time. Rates are by the hour or by the day, with some projects costed on a flat fee basis.

Tell us what you need and when, and what you have budgeted. We can discuss what's appropriate for your needs and give you some options.

Direct and on-point, that's Mardi. She respects deadlines, follows guidelines and tells a cracking story —an editor's dream!”
