What is the turnaround time and revision process when I hire Elevated Writing?
3
Turnaround time depends on project scope, which is determined during an initial client meeting.
For 500 to 800-word articles, the turnaround time for a first draft is about one week after the interview (or interviews) is conducted. Each of the two included revisions takes about 2 business days.
Do you have experience turning a donor’s major gift into a compelling story for a university fundraising campaign?
4
I have several years’ experience leading teams of creative writers, designers, and videographers charged with demonstrating the impact of major gifts on university programs, services, and facilities that have been prioritized for support through comprehensive fundraising campaigns. My strategy as a writer is to connect donor generosity with tangible benefits to students, faculty, and our communities through compelling audience-based storytelling.
