Hey guys,

Looking to hire someone to check an essay I did on Media Effects (social networking to be more specific)

I think it's an hour work. It's basically to check it out and see what can be done better and if there are any grammatical or spelling errors.

Please send me a PM or email me at guy [at] bysoigne [dot] com

Thanks!

    I'm getting the impression a lot of copywriters are getting very elitist, picking up on every single thing as if they're some special breed.

    Next time you feel like having a go at lawyers behaving like that, consider your own actions.

    Heck, even the very to A-list writers don't behave the way some on here do.

      I believe that someone has the writting
      gift then he/she should be able to both, write
      a stunning sales letter or proof read a document.
      True. But, unless you are paying a lot more than for a proof reader, few copywriters will respond.

      Next, there will probably be a critique on suitability to covert to sales. Article writers and copywriters come at this from totally different perspectives. A copywriter may well introduce factors you may not anticipate and feel is not what you hired them for.

      Next is the whole education on why article writing is different from copywriting, just to collect what is most probably a fraction of the fee a copywriter would earn otherwise. They can't use this in their resume the way an article writer might.

      The short of it is you are going to have a better time and find an audience more in tune with your objectives in Warriors for Hire

        If only that was true: It's okay to not respond.

        But to respond to just ridicule is arrogance.
