Hire the Best Financial Writers
Kailua, Hawaii
I have been a professional financial industry, insurance, and real estate, fintech, medtech and healthcare industry journalist and marketing writer since 2000. I cut my teeth as a staff reporter for Mutual Funds Magazine, then one of the FORTUNE Group titles at Time, Inc., I also have MARCOM agency experience as a creative and as a director of business development. My strengths are in investing, insurance, HR, employee benefits, personal finance, and healthcare related content. Where possible, I leverage AI technology to help keep client costs down. I'm well ahead of most writers in this regard, who haven't caught up with best practices in using ChatGPT, Claude, and related technologies. I've been published by Time, Inc., the Journal of Financial Planning, as well as outlets like NerdWallet, SeekingAlpha.com, Bankrate, WealthManagement.com, Healthcare Business Review, CIO.com, ValuePenguin.com, Nasdaq.com, Life & Health Pro, ThinkAdvisor, and many others. I've ghostwritten multiple books on personal finance, estate planning, real estate, insurance/risk management, and HR topics. Additionally, I've written or ghostwritten countless white papers, newsletter articles, blog posts, custom publishing projects and e-books. I'm also a 23-year Army veteran with a combat deployment and multiple company command tours. Thank you for your time and attention, and I look forward to working with you! Jason Kailua, Hawaii

Des Moines, Iowa
I'm a three-time founder who's personally raised $25.7M in equity and debt, and I help other founders build the materials that get them funded. Most "business plan and pitch deck" freelancers have written about fundraising. I've actually done it — I've sat across the table from VCs, angels, banks, and the USDA, and I know what makes them say yes (and what makes them ghost). I bring that pattern recognition to every client engagement. What I've done as an operator: - Raised $25.7M across three companies I founded (equity + USDA & SBA-backed debt) - Built two startups to 3 consecutive years of 100%+ revenue growth - Sold a company via acquisition in 2016 - Currently Co-Founder/COO of GracePay (payments) and Director at Jennings Kallen Advisors (fractional CFO + capital strategy) What I've done for clients: - Helped clients secure $21M+ in funding - Iowa Venture of the Year, ABI Leadership Iowa, Class Speaker for MBA graduation at UNC Kenan-Flagler - Mentor with Iowa Bio Innovation Showcase and Okoboji Entrepreneurial Institute Where I'm strongest: - Pre-seed and seed-stage pitch decks — narrative, market sizing, financial story - Investor-ready financial models — 3-5 year projections with scenario analysis, unit economics, cap tables - Business plans — for SBA loans, USDA programs, and equity raises If you're a technical founder, scientist, or first-time CEO who needs to translate what you've built into a story that resonates with check-writers — that's exactly the gap I close. Based in Des Moines, IA. Available 30+ hrs/week.

I’m a seasoned equity analyst and financial writer ranked among the top 6% of financial writers globally according to TipRanks. With 5+ years of experience analyzing stocks and macro shifts, I specialize in creating investor-grade content that performs in search engines and resonates with real capital allocators. I’ve published extensively on Seeking Alpha, a platform known for its rigorous editorial standards, where I’ve built a portfolio with 2,000+ followers, completely organically. My work focuses heavily on tech equities, macro dynamics, geopolitical risk, valuation frameworks, and structural market shifts. Every piece is rooted in objective analysis and clear thesis construction. But I don’t just write articles. I build content systems. Here’s how I approach your fintech or investment brand: 1. Strategic Content Architecture Instead of random blog posts, I design SEO topic clusters around high-intent keywords. Pillar pages anchor your authority. Supporting articles build semantic depth. Over time, search engines recognize your platform as a trusted source in your niche — whether that’s automated strategies, ETFs, AI investing, or wealth management. 2. Narrative Positioning Markets are driven by stories. Inflation cycles, AI booms, liquidity shifts, geopolitical friction — these narratives shape investor behavior. Because I actively track macro trends and analyze equities weekly, I write with real-time awareness. Your content won’t lag the market. It will anticipate it. 3. Audience Calibration Retail investors, HENRYs, RIAs, institutional readers — each segment thinks differently. I adapt tone, depth, and framing based on your target demographic and business model. Whether you’re educating beginners or speaking to sophisticated allocators, the message aligns with your reader and your product. 4. Product-Integrated Thought Leadership I understand fintech from the inside. I’ve written multiple weekly investment newsletters highlighting shifting market dynamics and strategy selection for a financial analytical services platform. I know how to naturally connect insight to product — without sounding promotional. Professional Background - Degree in Finance and Accounting - Former Ernst & Young audit experience across multiple sectors - Real estate advisory exposure - Specialized in tech-driven and AI-centric investment themes over the last three years - Strong foundation in financial statement analysis and valuation - Have worked extensively with three-statement models to construct price targets What clients value most: - Deep equity research translated into clear, compelling writing - Macro-aware analysis that feels timely, not recycled - Precision and credibility rooted in audit and analytical training - Flexibility across formats: blogs, whitepapers, newsletters, research notes, landing pages, scripts If you need someone who understands both markets and messaging — someone who can build authority, traffic, and trust in parallel — I’m ready to help. Let me handle the investing narrative while you focus on growing the business.
