***************************Do *not* copy this add.***************************
I am looking for about 5 consistent press release writers for ongoing writing projects. Prefer contractors from the US, Canada, Philippines, and Australia, but all are welcome to apply.
Qualifications:
*Excellent* English skills–both written and verbal–are a must.
—> Please have passed at least two U.S English tests on oDesk with a minimum of an "Above Average" score.
Be highly communicative.
Have an above average ability to meet very stringent deadlines.
Be experienced in writing press releases, article writing, or writing other marketing content.
The subjects will be different based on what the client is requesting. The hired Contractor will have about 24-36 hours to write a series of press release and return them to the project manager. It is a very tight deadline, yes, but so far all of my clients are satisfied with what they receive.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you have experience writing articles, creating website content, writing for marketing or public relations, or something similar I would like to hear from you. Applicants with press release writing experience, obviously, go to the top of the list.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Most of the press released will be submitted through a service similar to PRWeb, so all press releases must meet PRWeb guidelines. Those guidelines can be found here: http://service.prweb.com/learning/article/editorial-guidelines
***The minimum word count for these press releases for this project is 300 words (800 word maximum).***
Price per press release is $3 not including oDesk fees. Contractors will likely have a minimum of 25 press release requests per week, per hired Contractor. The budget price listed is just set for a projected, possible weekly budget.
*****Offers with upfront fees or different terms will be immediately declined.*****
DO apply if…
you have experience writing press releases or articles with SEO optimization
you have above average skills in communicating through writing with U.S./American English.
you have passed at least two oDesk U.S. English tests with an above average score.
you can embrace stringent deadlines and adhere to a consistent schedule of due dates.
you want to be part of a team and have the opportunity to see your work in different media formats.
Do NOT apply if…
you are not able to work for the amount stated above.
you are not able to write a decent quality press release with excellent American English within 12 hours.
***With your cover letter:*** Please send an example of your writing.
–> If you have not written for PRWeb, send your best writing sample.
–> If you have written for PRWeb, please send links or attachments of press releases you have completed that were *accepted* by PRWeb.
I look forward to hearing from you!
