When To Hire Local Copywriters and When Not To

Many companies believe they need to hire only local copywriters. Yet most copywriters do not prefer to work onsite. And in fact, most do their best creative work when in a quiet, undisturbed environment.

The best creative talent in your city may be poor when compared to a major city. Unless you live in a major metropolitan area like New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles there may not be a big talent pool of writers.

And even if there are good local copywriters, they may be very difficult to find. Like other in demand professionals, most get their clients through referalls and word of mouth.

So how do you find a great one?

For starters consider looking outside your local area. With current technology everything can be handled via phone, email or fax.

The only really good reason to limit yourself to your immediate area is because the product samples are so big or heavy that it would be cost prohibitive to ship them to an outside area.
