Can I Hire a Ghostwriter?

You have a book, social media campaign, a list of ideas for your company’s blog, and you’re wondering if you can hire a ghostwriter to accomplish your writing goals?

Yes, you can hire a ghostwriter for an infinite number of writing services! Ghostwriters write content in which you are the author, making your name the authority on a specific genre, circle, or niche. Ghostwriters will take your ideas, outlines, and information and create content which you specify based on the type of platform you want your material to be published.

For example, you may have a podcast and would like to hire a ghostwriter to create your show notes for each episode of your show. A ghostwriter can create show notes in a specified way for each episode of your podcast. Or, you may have a business and would like a ghostwriter to write your content for your social media. You may have images you would like posted, and your ghostwriter creates the contents (and possibly hashtags) to go along with the pictures you provide your writer. Your ghostwriter can schedule your social media ahead of time on a scheduler for you to make small changes or approve the content before the social media post is published. 

So how do you know what you can hire a ghostwriter for?

How Do I Know What I Can Hire a Ghostwriter For?

Ghostwriters offer many different services for their clients. Depending on the skill set of the ghostwriter, she may offer a variety of services, including:
  • Lead magnets
  • Social media posting
  • Blog content
  • Book writing, book idea generation, book content
  • Podcast scripts or podcast show notes
  • Editing book content, editing written content
  • Polishing your content, giving you suggestions and comments.

This list is a sampling of work which can be created by a ghostwriter. If you can dream it, chances are, a ghostwriter can accomplish it! 

Now that you have an idea in mind for what you want, what’s your next step?

Write Down Your List of Services You Want Your Ghostwriter to Perform

Start by writing down a list of services you are looking for, then look around for ghostwriters to work with on your project. I would suggest starting with LinkedIn and look under the hashtag ghostwriter. You will find a myriad of ghostwriters available to interview on LinkedIn.

Next, jot down a group of values or preferences which are non-negotiables for your ghostwriter. You may prefer working with a female, a journalist, or a writer who has a background in a specialty such as health and wellness. Put down your list on paper. I would even suggest getting a notebook to write in and keep track of your thoughts. In addition to keeping track of your thoughts, writing is a process for your brain to move forward. Scrawling your words on paper makes for a great landing pad for ideas as well as documenting information. A simple notebook works perfectly fine, or, if you like, purchase a leather-bound journal from a local store or artist. These are a beautiful start to your new project!

Following your preferences, fan out on the internet to find ghostwriters. Valuable places to look for ghostwriters are: LinkedIn, Facebook writer’s groups, and online writer’s groups to find ghostwriters who offer services you have listed on your list.

Next, narrow down your list of ghostwriters you want to interview. Depending on the services the ghostwriter offers, you can eliminate some ghostwriters from your potential writing list. Ghostwriters provide different services, depending on their level of expertise and their skill set. Find out what skills a ghostwriter offers and start interviewing ghostwriters.
