Hi
My name is Gretha G. I am an English speaking South African who joined Freelancer only recently.
I am a beginner freelancer, so I still need to build an online track record. however, I do have a first-class Masters degree in Philosophy, so I am a good researcher and writer.
I also taught 3 years of Behavioral Finance and Sales Strategies at university. The course involved the typical human thinking patterns and cognitive biases that sales people exploit when constructing advertizing campaigns. That is, I believe, the skill you're after here.
There are some academic writing samples with both MLA and APA referencing styles on my portfolio page.
For research, I have access not only to the internet, but also to databases like LexisNexis, Gale, Ebsco, and so forth. I can, thus, consult paid news sources and academic journals.
It's difficult to put in a bid or a bid amount, because it depends on what you want us to write and how much of it. So at this stage my bid is a bid random. Will you please let us know the subject and the amount of writing you need?
If chosen, I am happy to start your job immediately.
If you prefer, I can send you progress reports at whatever interval you choose, together with whatever written work I would have done by then.
I do human rights work around the world, so I'm keen on having freelance work that I can do in my own time and from my chosen location. I will appreciate it if you can give me the opportunity to embark upon a new career as a freelance writer.
