Who wants a free, original, custom article?

[newBum76]

Hey everyone, I'm a struggling article marketing newbie in a bit of a tight spot. I've made my first few hundred and slowly improving, but I need some quick cash to pay some bills.

Since I don't have a rep on here yet as a ghostwriter, I'm willing to write a free article in exchange for a quick review. I just ask that you have at least a few hundred posts here on WF.

Just FYI, I have tons of experience writing college papers and have over 50 articles myself submitted to ezine.

First come first serve, I'll be doing 3-5 of these, maybe more if I get requests from senior members.

Thanks! -Jon

Hey I'd be interested in that.

edit - just noticed you'd like a few hundred posts. Apologies :-) However, I'd be willing to pay and then give you a review, too. I actually was just about to outsource 2000 words (that's a pretty big article). PM me if you're interested.

[avenuegirl]

Yep, me too.

[4success53]

I am interested. Please PM me.

Have a Great Day!

I'd be interested although I do not have hundreds of posts. However, I have been a member of the warrior forum since 2005 and am a war room member. Let me know if that is good enough, please.

It would be nice as well to know what your rates will be after you have the testimonials if you care to post them. Thank you.

[Bill_Z]

Sure thing, I'm in...

[Scott Ames]

Oh yeah.. I would be interested.

[Kevin Barnes]

Wow... Are you going to be doing all this writing yourself?

[Michael Mayo]

I would also be interested!

Thanks,
Have a Great Day!
Michael

[newBum76]

Thanks for the quick responses everyone!

I've got 4 so I think I'm good for a while, but feel free to send your requests, I may or may not take on more.

And if you've got any paying work you need done, then by all means PM me!

Has any one received their article yet?

I was told I was one of the 4 people to receive an article and I'm still waiting
for mine and I know some one else that is still waiting for theirs too.

I understand the OP picked up a few paying customers although it's been
a few days now. Just curious?

Have a Great Day!
Michael

[Scott Ames]

No... still waiting. It's been a week is all. I don't mind waiting when it's free, but I do like to know a status.

I've had others break into writing and promise a free article, then totally disappear. It is my theory that the free article represents the quality and experience I'll have with that person when I pay.

I hope they don't look at it like "I'm doing it free, you are last on my list and I don't have to treat you like a paying customer"

See's candy offers free samples and they are the exact quality of the paid candy. Why? It gets people to buy more. I works. If I'm super happy with a writer that gives me a free article, I'm not only willing to pay next time, I'm almost bound by the law of reciprocity to use that person for my next batch of articles.

Hi Scott,

I wasn't in a hurry for the article as I knew it was a free gift although if
Jon chose only 4 that would receive them and 3 of the 4 are still waiting,
some thing isn't right!

When I contacted Jon via PM to give him my chosen keywords he informed
me that I would receive it that night then later in another PM from him he
stated that he had received a few orders and it would be the next day
before I received my article? I had no problem with that as I understood.

As you said, it's been a week now. I actually had a few people interested
in seeing the article and if his price was right would have placed orders.

This thread could have been a starting point for his article writing service.
Still could be if he delivers on his post.

Guess I'll sit back and see how it goes.

Have a Great Day!
Michael

PS. I also agree that even if it's some thing you're giving away for free
that you should be just as committed to accomplishing it as if it were from
a paying customer.

I got my article, and it was excellent.

I'm sure your samples will be delivered very soon as your reference/testimonials will be of great benefit to him and I'm sure he doesn't want to mess that up .

He takes some time, but the quality is great and mine was thoroughly researched!

It was not some skimpy 250 words fluff piece. I think (and hope) it will be worth your wait, especially with it being free.

You might also notice, we have a new war room member.

[Michael Mayo]

Thanks Jill,

That is the response I really wanted to see posted here!

Can't wait to see it now!

Have a Great Day!

LOL, you can blame me too for part of the delay.

I might have tied up some of his time this past week.

Sorry!

Hey everyone, sorry about being late with the freebies here and for not checking up on this thread! I did indeed have a few paying jobs that I put ahead of the free articles, plus I had some unexpected things come up in the past week that took up my time. I sincerely apologize for making anybody feel like I put you on the back burner; that was never my intention, so I'm sorry about that.

I'll admit that I can be a bit of a perfectionist too, so I'm not the quickest writer to begin with. However, I make sure that my articles are quality and not something that I'd be embarrassed to show anyone.

I've seen lots of people on here complain about horrible articles that they end up getting, so I want everyone to know that I simply refuse to write crap; I would rather take a little longer and write something good than write a piece of garbage just to get it into your hands quicker.

That being said, I'm guessing that mass quantity will not be my strong point here lol. I think the best thing for me would be to just take on a few jobs at a time and do a good job on them instead of taking on too many and not be able to get them done quick enough.

Ideally, I think it would be great to build up some solid business relationships with a few trustworthy warriors out there who like quality articles.

By the way, I want to point out that Jill (avenuegirl) is awesome! Not only did she give me a paying job, but she paid for my war room membership.... that was a really nice surprise and a testament to how great the people here at the WF can be!

Hope you like my articles everyone!

Thanks for the kind words Jill, and thanks for paying for my war room membership!

[Scott Ames]

I must say I got my article and it's well done. I think you have a future here. Thanks again for your effort.

Hi Jon,

Welcome to the Warrior Forum! You've got a PM.

It may prove interesting.

Warmly,
Dan
