How a Freelance Copywriter Can Help You Manage Marketing Projects

“When is the submission deadline for that new web content?”

“Did the team leader send back comments on the new draft?”

“Did I remember to send the final text to the designer for layout?”

As a marketing communications manager, you know that sales collateral projects involve dozens of details, multiple players, and often rapidly changing information and deadlines.

It’s part of your job to keep on top of everything, but have you ever called in reinforcements? Probably not.

After all, won’t tasks be forgotten, wires crossed, deadlines slip if you’re not managing every project detail? Maybe not.

An experienced freelance writer can likely help you with certain project management tasks, making the work simpler for you and others involved in the project.

Consider how you can use your writers to lighten more of your load:

• Following up with reviewers who haven’t yet provided comments on drafts
• Coordinating with graphic designers on document layouts and changes
• Publishing project schedules and updating project tracking systems

How else have you used writers and other freelancers to help with managing your marketing and PR projects?
