Who are you and how do you make money online?

My name is Kat Ambrose, and I’m a freelance writer. 

I write and ghostwrite value-packed blog content for eCommerce and SaaS companies that positions them as a resource in the industry, and educates their audience.

I’ve written for several top companies that specialize in email marketing, shipping and logistics, CRM, PPC, and more. I also offer editing and proofreading services to clients in various niches.

I love being able to help my clients find the right words to help grow their business.

All of my clients pay me on a project-fee scale.

There are a few ways writers charge clients, but I find that charging on a per-project basis eliminates any awkward conversations come invoice time. Not to mention, it takes the pressure off of totally nailing the word count. 

Currently, here’s a breakdown of my blog post writing rates:

1000-1500 words: $5751500-2000 words: $6752000-2500 words: $775And so on…
