    It's best if you let us know what you consider a reasonable fee.

      John's right.

      If you're talking about sales copy, then you need to stop worrying about the writing style and type of humor.

      Ultimately it's the customers votes that matter... and they vote with their wallets.

      My favorite color is blue but it doesn't mean using it for every webpage I create and for every font is going to be a good idea. With some niches, it would be a complete disaster to do so. So I go with what the people in that niche prefer... and I get the results I'm looking for as a result.

      Food for thought,

      Mike

        I have to agree. Always put the customer first. Think like him, and anticipate his actions. Don't worry about the style you like or prefer; come up with a style that fits your client's needs/wants!

    Hi Eli, I've been on Groupon several times as a customer and understand exactly what you're looking for. Light, fresh, fun copy to describe discounted products and services that makes them sound unmissable and encourages instant impulse purchase (helped by limited availability). I'm a freelance journalist as well as an online SEO copywriter, and that's exactly my natural writing style. I've been published in Spirit & Destiny, Cooler, Snow, Energise and other travel / sports mags, and my first non-fiction book was published worldwide in 2005.

    I would need to know more about the quantity of work in order to give you a quote, so do get in touch and let's chat more.
