Prose

Looking for the top 1% of marketers and creatives? Since 2012, Prose has been the trusted partner for brands that demand elite, pre-vetted talent to drive results.

Our talent network stands out for its unique combination of scale, selectivity, and personal connection. Here’s how we’re different:

Selectivity:
Every applicant is triple-vetted:
- 1. For inclusion in our exclusive network: We rigorously screen applicants, accepting only a small percentage of those who apply.
- 2. For the unique skills required for your project: We ensure the talent aligns with your specific industry, content type, and style requirements.
- 3. For retention in our network: Once accepted, talent is continually assessed through client feedback and staff reviews to maintain high standards.
The perfect size and structure:
- 1,000+ vetted pros: Our network is big enough to provide the scalability and breadth needed to meet a wide range of client needs but small enough that we know each member personally.
- Balanced approach: Our network is larger than those of traditional marketing agencies, which often lack the depth and specialization needed for complex projects. Yet, we’re far more curated than the massive freelancer platforms that let in just about anyone. Our pros are trusted experts, not just names in a giant database.
- Personal relationships: Because we know many of our pros personally, we’re able to provide a more thoughtful and personalized matchmaking process for our clients. It’s like having a curated roster of trusted talent at your fingertips.
Exclusive focus on marketing and creatives:
- We live and breathe marketing. Our network is filled with specialists who excel at what they do—no generalists here.
Exclusive talent referrals:
- Many of our pros come from personal referrals, so you get access to hidden talent not found on other platforms.
Vetting done by senior marketers:
- Senior marketing insiders handle the vetting—not recruiters or AI. We know what it takes to match you with experts who hit the ground running.
A network of experts—depth and breadth:
- From content creation to SEO, SEM, social media, and design, our pros handle it all. Plus, we have industry-specific experts to tailor your marketing strategy.
Proven track record:
- Every pro in our network has a portfolio of proven results and client testimonials, so you know you’re working with the best.

The result? Expert marketing solutions delivered by pros who understand your vision and execute with precision. Ready to work with the best? Let’s connect and get started with the right pro.

Working with Prose offers numerous advantages over hiring individual freelancers, providing a more comprehensive, reliable, and risk-free service—often at nearly the same cost. Here’s how we compare:

Vetted pros, no guesswork:
- Prose: Every marketing pro in our network is hand-picked through a rigorous vetting process, ensuring you work with top-tier talent. You get proven experts with relevant skills and experience.
- Freelancers: You’re responsible for vetting freelancers yourself, which can be time-consuming and risky. It’s hard to know if they truly have the skills you need.
Less juggling, more doing:
- Prose: We handle everything—onboarding, deadlines, and quality control—so you can focus on your business.
- Freelancers: You’re stuck managing every detail, from communication to deadlines. If things go off track, it’s up to you to fix them. More stress, extra work.
Results without babysitting:
- Prose: Our pros deliver high-quality outcomes aligned with your brand and goals. No micromanaging required.
- Freelancers: Freelancers may require more check-ins and guidance, and if things go wrong, it’s up to you to course-correct mid-project.
Flexibility, minus the hassle:
- Prose: Need to adjust your team or make replacements? We seamlessly integrate the right pro into your project without any awkward conversations.
- Freelancers: If a freelancer isn’t working out, you’re left with the tough task of replacing them—starting over from scratch and slowing down your project.
Comprehensive services vs. one-off tasks:
- Prose: We offer full-service solutions, from content strategy and SEO to design and analytics. Everything is integrated to align with your overall marketing goals.
- Freelancers: Freelancers often specialize in just one area, so you’ll need to manage other aspects yourself or hire multiple freelancers, adding complexity.
Consistency and reliability:
- Prose: Work with the same pros across multiple projects for consistent quality and messaging. Plus, we can provide a dedicated account manager to keep everything on track.
- Freelancers: Freelancers are often juggling multiple clients, leading to inconsistent results and fluctuating availability.
Personalized matchmaking vs. guessing games:
- Prose: We hand-pick the perfect pro based on your goals, industry, and needs. It’s like having a personal recruiter dedicated to your success.
- Freelancers: Finding the right freelancer is often a guessing game, and there’s no guarantee they’ll align with your specific goals.
Support when you need it:
- Prose: If something goes wrong, we step in to resolve it quickly—no stress on your end.
- Freelancers: With freelancers, you’re on your own if issues arise, which can delay your project or lead to costly mistakes.
Built for the long run:
- Prose: We’re in it for the long haul, building lasting relationships and offering ongoing support for future projects—with your institutional knowledge preserved in-house and freelancers incentivized to stick around.
- Freelancers: Freelancers tend to move on after one project, making it hard to maintain continuity and long-term professional relationships with them.
Breadth, depth, and peace of mind:
- Prose: You get the depth of an agency, the range of services, and the peace of mind that comes from working with a full team—without the overhead. We also take care of all contracts and paperwork, so there’s no hassle for you.
- Freelancers: Managing contracts, payments, and legal considerations with freelancers can be complex and adds unnecessary risk.

Bottom line: Prose offers all the benefits of freelance talent without the risks or headaches. Why settle for guesswork? With Prose, you get expert talent, seamless service, and the results you deserve.

Prose’s matchmaking service gives you the best of both worlds: the cost savings of freelance talent with the quality control of a managed service. It’s a combo that DIY freelancer marketplaces just can’t match.

Here’s how we stack up against those do-it-yourself platforms, where you’re left browsing endless profiles with little oversight and hoping for the best:

Quality control vs. uncertainty and risk
- Prose: We rigorously vet every marketing pro, ensuring you work with top-tier, experienced talent. This means consistent, high-quality results—no surprises.
- DIY marketplaces: You’re left to vet and manage freelancers yourself. Quality can be hit-or-miss, with no guarantees on performance.
Personalized matchmaking vs. endless browsing
- Prose: We take the time to understand your business and hand-select the perfect expert for your needs. No more endless scrolling or guesswork—just hand-picked pros ready to deliver.
- DIY marketplaces: Sifting through profiles and reviews takes valuable time, and even then, you might still end up with a poor fit.
Cost-effective and efficient vs. hidden costs
- Prose: You get freelance-level rates with the added quality assurance of a managed service. We handle all the logistics, saving you time and money.
- DIY marketplaces: While it may seem cheaper at first, hidden costs—like missed deadlines, poor quality work, and managing everything yourself—quickly add up.
Seamless integration vs. DIY coordination
- Prose: We handle all onboarding and make sure your pro fits seamlessly into your team. Plus, we provide ongoing support to keep projects on track.
- DIY marketplaces: You’ll need to manage onboarding and coordination on your own, adding extra work and complexity.
Risk-free trial vs. uncertain commitment
- Prose: We offer a trial period, so you can assess fit before making a long-term commitment—giving you peace of mind.
- DIY marketplaces: You’re often stuck committing upfront, making it a gamble if the freelancer isn’t the right fit for your project.
Consistency and reliability vs. one-off projects
- Prose: We build long-term relationships, so you can work with the same pros across multiple projects, ensuring consistency and reliability.
- DIY marketplaces: Retaining the same freelancer for ongoing work can be difficult, leading to inconsistent results.
Managed service vs. doing it all yourself
- Prose: We provide dedicated support throughout your engagement, from project management to quality control. We handle it all, so you don’t have to.
- DIY marketplaces: You’re left juggling multiple freelancers, timelines, and quality control all by yourself.

In summary, Prose offers the cost savings of freelance talent with the quality control and reliability of a managed service. Our rigorously vetted pros, personalized matchmaking, and end-to-end support guarantee consistent, high-quality results. Ready to experience the ProseMedia difference? Let’s get started!
