FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am just beginning to build this service on Thumbtack. My pricing is based on the scope of the work, and is fair, reasonable and ethical. I have some flexibility at this juncture to work with prospective clients on fees, so that I may establish a new presence on the site.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After a client contacts me, I will email back requesting a brief description (or clarification) of the desired job. If it is a project I can deliver excellence on, I will request a telephone conference to further explore the job. From there, terms will be agreed upon and I will commence the work. My price includes two rounds of editing after submission of the final draft to the client.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a Bachelors Degree in Business, Finance. I have a Masters Degree in Social Work, and specialized in child welfare for over a decade (in hospital, educational and residential treatment environments). My employment history is rich and varied, and in the course of both careers, I have had occasion to write extensively in different capacities. I have much to offer including: sophisticated writing ability; an extremely high-level of professionalism; stringent standards of personal performance and accuracy; exceptional interpersonal and sensitive communication ability. In the course of my career, I have drafted speeches for television producers; briefs for attorneys; and I have ghostwritten professionally for local clients. The skills I offer are: Persuasive, articulate written expression; clear explanatory style; outstanding attention to proofreading detail; warm, empathetic and courteous client interaction; capable and comprehensive completion of all assigned tasks within specified deadlines with a defined accent on quality. I am new to the mechanics of Thumbtack, but am in possession of tangible, valuable talent and experience that can lend itself well to your job requirements. I look forward to exploring possibilities on the site, and to building an impressive, stellar review-based profile. I am pleased to meet you (in advance) and hoping to hear from you.
