Best-in-class content for SaaS and Marketing brands looking to scale
Tell me if this sounds familiar…
You have an editorial game plan, but you don’t have the time to do it all yourself.
You want to connect with your audience and showcase your product’s value, but your existing content isn’t providing the impact you need it to.
You want to be able to provide content that speaks to industry trends and news, but your team is only focused on SEO.
Here’s how I can help:
I’ve written content that consistently ranks on the first SERP, lands my clients media interviews, fosters relationships with their target audience, and converts. Here are a few of the companies I’ve worked with:
Grammarly
Dock.us
Writer (AI)
OpenText
LendingTree
GoodRx
Farther Finance
(P.S. Looking for someone who can do updates to keep your existing content fresh? I can do that, too.)
Why work with me?
I’ve been a professional writer for the better part of a decade (I also have a journalism degree from Boston University), and I have thousands of bylines under my belt from traditional publications (such as: the L.A. Times, Forbes, the Houston Chronicle, CNBC, MarketWatch, USA Today, and U.S. News and World Report) as well as private companies.
I’ve been doing this for a while, and that means I have the expertise to deliver high-quality content that can not only get you ranking high on SERP (like this article), but also provides value to your audience and converts (like this one).
But you don’t just have to take my word for it. Here’s what some of my clients have to say:
Anthony Carlton, Farther Finance
“If you're looking for someone who knows how to put together a well-research article or case study that brings your brand's voice to life—Devon is your writer.”
Dan Shepard, Managing Editor at LendingTree
“Devon is a regular — and trusted — freelancer for me on studies and surveys. I’m especially thankful for Devon's ability to find the right external sources to supplement our internal study data, especially amid the coronavirus pandemic.”
Morgan Smith, Senior Project Manager, Campfire
“OpenText LOVES your work!! We've gotten rave reviews on your pieces so far. Amazing work.”
Andrew Pentis, Editor at Decisionary Media
“Devon was one of our absolute best freelance contributors at Sound Dollar/Decisionary Media. She was attentive to our brand, style, and voice, and could always be counted on to deliver on her assignments.”
when it comes to content, I’ve pretty much done it all. But here are the assignments I specialize in:
-
Articles & blog posts
This is my bread and butter. I’ve written everything from how-to’s and listicles, to thought-leadership posts, to heavily reported features and interviews. I can turn around clean, engaging content that turns occasional readers into genuine fans of your brand. And I can do it all without clogging up your inbox.
-
Long-form Content
Helpful, in-depth content doesn’t mean much if you can’t keep eyes on the page. That’s where I come in. Whether you’re looking to assign an e-book or case study, or you want to create detailed guides to land more newsletter subscribers, I’d love to talk to you about your long-form content needs.
-
Content Updates
Thanks to the almighty algorithm, valuable content often comes with an expiration date. So regularly updating sources and stats, as well as making SEO-friendly changes, is essential if you want to stay relevant and build your audience. I’ve worked on TONS of update projects for everything from product and company reviews to educational tech content.
So what do you get when you work with me?
I provide my clients with high-quality, deeply researched content, delivered via Google Docs. Here’s what’s included:
1,000+ words per assignment
Screenshots and links to social media posts to drive home claims
Examples to illustrate points to the reader
Facts linked in the comments, plus the exact quote for quick fact-checking
Formatting that caters to scanners and readers alike (think: tables, charts, bulleted lists, etc.)
SEO based on primary, secondary and long-tail keywords
Colorful quotes from experts
Up to two rounds of edits
9 years of expertise in SaaS, branding, marketing, and content
Adherence to your company’s standards, tone, and voice
Articles delivered on time, every time
For a standard blog post or article, my rates start at $600, though they will vary based on topic complexity, number of required interviews, and word count. Rates for long-form content (such as ebooks or case studies) begin at $2,000.
I book out six weeks in advance, and I charge a flat fee per assignment. (I also offer packages for recurring assignments which come with a 5% - 15% discount, depending on the frequency of the work.)
