Bottom Line

How do we get started, and what are the costs?

A fair question. There are cheaper writers. Clients of Peter Dorfman have valued their experiences working with him because of his professional maturity, depth of experience, speed and quality of delivery, and grasp of his clients’ strategic goals and business realities. Some general guidelines*:

  • A blog post: $50 to $250.
  • A press release or backgrounder: $250 to $1250, depending on length, complexity and required illustrations
  • A magazine article: $500 to $2500.
  • A medium-complexity business proposal: $2500 to $7500.
  • Web site copy: $250 to $1500 per page, depending on research required.
  • A marketing or technical white paper: $4500 to $9500.
  • A complete training course: $4500 to $17,500, depending on length, complexity and audience.
  • Editing of a commercial newsletter or blog: $1500 to $4500 per month.

* Actual mileage may vary.
