An Army of Writers works with writers who can demonstrate high-level expertise in their fields—whether via an advanced degree, a journalism or editing specialty, or years of professional experience in an industry.
If you’re newer to the writing game or a generalist, we’re not a good fit for you.

FAQs
What if the writer finds the project?
We have no desire to steal clients. If the writer finds a project but wants full team support for it, great! We can come to an agreement on pricing and move forward in the same manner described above. If not, the writer is never under any obligation to include us or use the services of the team. We are a team of freelancers, and we expect that each writer will maintain his/her own freelance client load.
What if the client doesn't want the team approach?
We work hard to sell your awesomeness, so we require a non-competition agreement that states, in part, that you agree not to independently take on any job from a client we already approached on your behalf. This exclusion generally ends one year after we make our pitch to the potential client, or one year after we stop working with them.
What if the client wants to hire the writer as an employee?
We do not stand in the way of offers for bona fide employment. If a client extends a job offer, we’ll congratulate you and hope you get a
window office!
How much is the pay?
Every project is bid independently, so pricing varies. Many of our experts earn $200 to $900 for a blog post. Rates for content strategy and website content depend on the client’s starting point and the complexity of the topic. High-level expertise in narrow niches earns higher rates. Before we submit a bid, we discuss pricing with the writer to ensure an acceptable rate.
How much do you make off the writers?
Pricing for each project includes fees for content strategy, editing, proofreading, fact-checking and administrative tasks. We are completely transparent and willing to discuss project fees with writers who want to know the details. Everyone gets paid for their time and effort.
