I've been writing full-time for 15+ years and I've completed over $300,000 worth of projects on Upwork, so you know you're in safe hands when you work with me. I develop long-term partnerships with my clients over many months and years. Here's what the CEO of a marketing agency had to say about me: "He's one of the greatest copywriters I've ever worked with. We've had a project going on for 6 years now which is crazy to think about!!!" If you need help with any aspect of copywriting โ€“ from newsletters to web copy to landing pages โ€“ I'd love to hear from you. What about AI? I've been writing since long before AI showed up, so I'm always happy to write 100% human-only content. However, many clients now ask me to use AI to speed up the content creation process, and I use it as and when needed โ€“ I have a pro subscription to Claude for this purpose. Tasks could include: - Writing and editing AI-assisted content - Reshaping and improving AI drafts for clarity, structure and flow - Fact-checking and tone refinement - SEO support (keywords, internal linking, meta descriptions) Whatever you need, if you want to work with a professional who takes his work and reputation seriously, let's talk.

DO YOU WANT AD CREATIVES THAT ACTUALLY DRIVE CONVERSIONS NOT JUST LOOK PRETTY? If you've been struggling with finding a graphic designer who can create scroll-stopping, converting creatives and not just follow briefs, I'm ready to help you launch campaigns with visuals that enhance your ads. โœจ As a social media designer and advertising design specialist, I help you: Get visuals that actually sell Launch your next campaign with confidence Stop wasting time on endless revisions ๐Ÿšซ Problems I solve: Designers who don't think like marketers Visuals that burn budget without results Creative processes that steal your time I'm not just a graphic designer. I'm a marketing-minded creative who understands how ad design drives performance. As a social media ads designer, I help founders and marketers turn advertising design creatives into growth tools, not just decoration. ๐ŸŽฏ What makes me different as a graphic designer is that I understand the full marketing funnel. When you hire a graphic designer who only makes things look pretty, you waste money on visuals that don't convert. When you work with me, every ad design project starts with understanding your business goals, target audience pain points, and what makes your competitors succeed or fail. My graphic design workflow includes Adobe Photoshop for photo manipulation and social media imagery, Adobe Illustrator for vector graphics and illustration, and Adobe InDesign for layout design and brochure design projects. For collaborative work, I use Figma to create ad design templates. I also leverage Canva for clients who need simple templates. ๐Ÿš€ What sets me apart as a graphic designer is my expertise with AI-powered design tools. I integrate Midjourney, DALL-E 3, Stable Diffusion, and Flux into my workflow to create unique advertising design elements. As a forward-thinking graphic designer, I use AI strategically to generate custom illustration elements and visual concepts that amplify creativity. My process as a graphic designer starts with discovery. I research your business, understand your target audience, and analyze competitors. Then we move into creative briefing where I translate your goals into visual concepts. As a graphic designer focused on advertising design, I always provide three different options for your ads creative. Once you give feedback, I finalize the ad design and prepare everything for scaling. You get all sizes needed for different platforms, organized Figma files with proper layout design, and a Loom walkthrough. Whether you need banner ad design for Google Ads or social media imagery for Instagram, I deliver formats optimized for each platform. ๐Ÿ’ผ As a full-time graphic designer, I'm available throughout the day and can respond within 10 minutes during business hours. Whether you need ad design for paid campaigns, print design for offline materials, or organic content, I deliver social media designer quality. My experience as a graphic designer includes working with e-commerce brands, SaaS companies, coaches, and consultants. E-commerce brands need advertising design work that showcases products beautifully. SaaS companies need ads creative that simplifies features. Coaches need graphic designer support that builds trust through professional visuals. When you work with me as your graphic designer, you're not just getting ad design files. You're getting a creative partner who understands marketing strategy. I know what works in advertising design because I've tested hundreds of ads creative variations as a graphic designer. I know which banner ad design elements drive engagement and how social media imagery needs to adapt for different platforms. ๐ŸŽจ My technical skills as a graphic designer span the full spectrum. For digital ads creative, I excel at creating banner ad design that captures attention. For social media imagery, I understand platform-specific requirements that make static ads designer work perform better. When clients need print design or brochure design, I apply the same strategic thinking. The biggest mistake businesses make is hiring a graphic designer who treats ad design like decoration. Effective advertising design requires collaboration. That's why my social media graphic designer approach is consultative. My workflow with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign combined with AI tools like Midjourney means I deliver faster results. โœ… If it's your first time working with a graphic designer, don't worry. I'll guide you through each step and offer 30 days of free support. If you're looking to boost engagement with advertising design visuals for Facebook, Instagram, Google Ads, or LinkedIn, let's start a conversation. My expertise ensures your ad design projects drive real results. Click the message button and send me your request. You can expect a same-day response. ๐Ÿ“ฉ

How to Hire Top Content Marketers

How to hire content marketers

In the world of digital marketing, content is king. It takes a solid content strategy to remain competitive in search rankings and maximize user engagement. 

So how do you hire content marketers? What follows are some tips for finding top content marketers on Upwork. 

How to shortlist content marketing professionals

As youโ€™re browsing available content marketing consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the contractors you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Industry fit. You want a content marketer who understands your industry so they can help you figure out how best to reach your target market. 
  • Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., creating high-quality infographics with Adobe Illustrator).
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what itโ€™s like to work with a particular content marketer.

How to write an effective content marketing job post

With a clear picture of your ideal content marketer in mind, itโ€™s time to write that job post. Although you donโ€™t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if theyโ€™re the right fit for the project. 

An effective content marketing job post should include: 

  • Scope of work: From social media posts to press releases, list all the deliverables youโ€™ll need. 
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project. 
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, software, or marketing channels, mention this here. 
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

CONTENT MARKETERS FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is content marketing? 

Content marketing involves developing a marketing strategy around the sharing of articles, videos, social media posts, and other content. The goal is to create valuable content that is relevant to the products and services a business provides, building brand authority, organic search, and customer engagement. 

Hereโ€™s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in content marketing consultants:

  • Content marketing
  • Desired writing skill (e.g., SEO writing, copywriting, business writing)
  • Social media management
  • Inbound marketing
  • Content-specific skills (e.g., video production for creating explainer videos)

Why hire content marketers?

The trick to finding top content marketers is to identify your needs. Do you need a content marketer to create a content calendar for your business blog? Do you also require niche skills such as generating content ideas for a podcast production? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life. 

How much does it cost to hire a content marketer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced content marketer may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their content marketing services more competitively. 

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.
