- The best writers in the industry
A writer who knows your industry
Carefully vetted experts in more than 50 industries, including yours.
A writer expert at your content type
Whether you want a blog post, bylined article, or speech, your content will be written by a specialist who “gets” that content type.
A style that suits your brand
Receive content in a style that matches your brand — youthful and fun, impressive and dynamic, or anything in between.
Continuity and consistency
We learn your brand guidelines and voice, so that your content always sounds like you. And if you like a particular writer’s work, we’ll always try to use that writer again.
A unique matchmaking process
Step aside, Yenta: We’re the best matchmakers around. See how our writer selection process stacks up:
Uniquematchmaking
Some websites display an endless list of freelancer profiles, leaving it up to you to screen the writers.
At Prose, we do the screening for you, saving you time and eliminating guesswork. No more sifting through profiles, sorting through endless “bids,” or hiring and rehiring talent.
Guided by a rigorous set of guidelines and years of experience, we match you with the best writer, hands down.
Some cloud-based writing services promise to match you with the right writer — but guess what? It’s really a robot doing it.
Hundreds of writers — many of whom may be only vaguely qualified — are mass-emailed assignments based on oversimplified formulas.
Technology rocks, but people are smarter. We trust editors, not algorithms.
Over countless hours, we’ve developed the ultimate matchmaking system. Your writer is chosen by experienced editors, supported by real data.
It’s the perfect combination of man and machine.
Agencies promise you personal account management, but you pay a high price for it. And their pool of writers is limited.
At Prose, you get your own personal editorial account manager — at no extra cost. And we’ll handpick the ideal writer for you from our huge network of vetted professionals, making sure you get a writer familiar with your industry and content type.
Could this be why so many marketing agencies outsource their content writing to us?
3. We write (and edit!) your content
Your content will be written by a professional writer or journalist who knows your industry and is an expert in your content type.
But we don’t just match you up with a writer and walk away — we work closely with our writers to craft stellar content.
For extra quality control, all content is carefully edited and proofread by a dedicated in-house editor before it hits your desk. Your editor will ensure that all your content has a consistent style.
WRITING
“Content marketing” and “storytelling” are marketing buzzwords. But you don’t need a marketer writing your content — you need a first-class writer.
Let’s face it. Anyone can write, but not everyone can write good prose.
At Prose, we capture the unique voice of your brand, so you can get back to what matters — building your business.
We learn your brand
Before dipping our pen in ink, we carefully review your website (and any other materials you provide) to discover the distinctive voice of your brand.
We do research
We don’t just write fluff. Our journalists love conducting original research — for smart storytelling with substance and style.
EDITING
Don't want to struggle with editing? Let us do it for you.
Your personal editor will carefully edit all your content before delivery to make sure it shines.
Prose ensures quality control at scale, no matter how much content you order.
Project after project, we ensure every word conveys the unique style, voice, and tone of your brand.
What makes Prose editors special?
Here's how we compare:
Consistent
Dedicated
Free
Meticulous
Qualified
 Freelancers & Other Online Services |
 Prose Media |
|
|---|---|---|
| Price |
Editing isn’t offered at all — or if it is, it’s an expensive “premium” add-on. |
We edit all work — for free. |
| Industries Logo Title | Most editors perform their work off-site. | Our editors are in-house employees at Prose Media. |
| Familarity with your brand |
Editors are typically contracted in shifts and may know nothing about your brand. |
Your editorial account manager has worked with you on previous projects, and mastered the unique voice and style of your brand. |
| Depth of edits | “Editing” typically means light proofreading — running content through a spell-checker and fixing elementary grammar errors. | In addition to proofreading, we do extensive copy-editing, substantive editing, even rewriting — whatever is in the best interest of the piece. |
| Quality of editors | Editors are typically assessed via online grammar tests and other notoriously inadequate evaluation methods. | Editors are top-notch, carefully vetted by senior editors and interviewed in person by our CEO. |
4. Review and refine
Receive your content quickly — typically within three to five business days. (You set the deadline when you order.)
If you’re pleased with the draft, approve it right from your inbox.
If we miss the mark, you’re covered — we offer up to two rounds of free revisions with every project.
Streamlined workflow
Use our easy online platform to view and approve content, request revisions, and track your projects — all from one place.
See everything at a glance and get helpful support when you need it.
Prefer email? No problem. You’ll get email notifications at every step, so you can do almost everything from your inbox.
Professional revisions
Want changes? It’s easy to request revisions.
Just click “Request Revisions” from your inbox or from your cloud dashboard.
Feel free to highlight text and add specific comments, or just give us general instructions in a free-form box. The writer will revise, and we’ll edit their revised draft before sending it back to you.
Need further changes? No problem. Request a second round of complimentary revisions.
We get it (and remember it for next time)
There’s no way around it — anytime you work with a new writer or service, you have to bring them up to speed on your brand, your voice, and your goals.
But with most writing services, you have to go through the process again and again, making review and revision a real chore. That's why so many marketers complain, "I spend all my time educating them!” "“I have to keep saying the same thing over and over, and they never listen!” “ “We should have done this ourselves!”
Not with Prose. Unlike other services, you only train us once. We do the rest.
Save time and hassle — never train a writer again. Prose is a permanent writing solution.
Quick learning curve
Our editors are experts, so we get it right away. Once you start working with us, you only need to tell us once.
We keep getting smarter
We know how to listen — and we incorporate your feedback — so your content gets better and better over time.
Feedback is forever
Training happens only once. We remember what we've learned and apply it to all future content. No knowledge is ever lost.
5. Pay and publish
Happiness guaranteed! Once you’re satisfied with your content, payment is simple and fast.
As soon as you click “Approve,” your account will be charged.
Save your content in multiple formats and access it easily anytime.
Easy export options
You can export your content in multiple formats, including Microsoft DOC and PDF.
Pay when you're satisfied
You can request up to two rounds of complimentary revisions. Pay easily by credit card once the project is approved. Or, set up automatic monthly billing for recurring content plans.
You own it 100%
Fully confidential
Our lips are sealed. No one will ever see your work (or know your trade secrets) until you decide to publish them. Your professional writer and editor preserve the confidentiality of any and all materials you may provide.
You own the copyright
Once you pay for your content, you have total control over its future. As the author, you can use, re-use, or repurpose your content in any way you choose. Your imagination is the limit.
Publish under any name
Who gets the authorial byline? It’s up to you. As the copyright holder, you can attribute your content to anyone you want — the original author, yourself, or an executive on your team.
Your own project archive
You have your own project archive on the Prose cloud platform, where you can easily browse and search your projects anytime.
There's even a special area to view and download your completed projects.
