Ghostwriting

You know what you want to say, but turning that into an article that sounds like you can take a day you don’t have. We’ll need about an hour of your time for an interview, and we’ll take it from there.

What we write

• Bylined articles and thought leadership
• Blog posts and article series
• LinkedIn posts and commentary
• Speeches and conference talks
• Briefing documents and board papers
• Website and marketing copy that has to sound like a person
• Internal guidance and policy documents
• House style guides

How it works

Interviewing you. Before any writing starts, you spend an hour or so talking us through your positions, the arguments you make that others in your field don’t, and the way you put things, so that the finished piece carries your thinking in your own voice.

Doing the research. We find sources for whatever the piece needs and show you where each claim comes from, so that you’re comfortable putting your name to it.

Revising with you. You read and mark up a first draft, and we revise it until it reads as yours; two rounds is usually enough.

Where we stop

We don’t ghostwrite anything that a student will submit for a degree because that work has to be the student’s own. If you’re a student, we can edit what you’ve written within your institution’s rules, or coach you while you write it.

What it costs

Ghostwriting is $100 an hour, which covers the interview, the research, the writing, and the revision rounds.

It’s the hardest of our services to quote in advance because so much depends on the research a piece needs. Once we have your brief, we’ll give you a range before we start.

Billing is hourly at our standard rates. If you’re working to a fixed budget, tell us and we’ll adjust the scope to fit.
