Hire a ghostwriter when you need an information product or content created requires planning. Too many people just think about wanting to create some content and then they go and look for ghostwriting services.

What you need to do is make a detailed plan of what you want and when you need it.

So before you go and approach a ghostwriter, go through the checklist below and make sure you have all the information. It will save you a lot of time.

Checklist To Hire A Ghostwriter

1. Have you done the research on what you want ghostwritten? For example, if you are looking to write an information product (ebook), do you know what topics you want to cover and if those topics are what the market wants to know about. If not you need to discuss with the ghostwriter first so that they can provide advice.

2. For ghostwriting ebooks, give your affiliate links to the ghostwriter so that they can embed them in your ebook. This will save time for both of you instead of revising the ebook afterwards.

3. Tell the ghostwriter your business information so that they know what to place in the ebook. For example, your name (some people may like to use penn names), company name, website URL, disclaimer information etc…

4. If you want to hire a ghostwriter for articles written in your name, have you thought about the topics you want ghostwritten. A lot of my customers have approached me asking me to write on a niche. However, they have no idea on what to write about. To make sure that the ghostwriter will deliver what you want, give them keyword suggestions and article titles to write on. If you are not sure, then ask the ghostwriter to think of article titles for you — approve them before you ask the ghostwriter to begin writing.

5. For articles, tell the ghostwriter what resource box you will use for them. if you don’t have one then ask the ghostwriter to create one for you. A good ghostwriter will consider what your resource box shows before they write your article. This is to ensure that the reader will click on your resource box links after reading the article.

6. If you are asking the ghostwriter to write autoresponder messages to follow up with your prospects, provide them as much detail as possible regarding your product. If you want your autoresponder to persuade your prospects to buy your products, then the ghostwriter must know what your product is about.

7. As a ghostwriter, I create minisite graphics for my customers. I know a lot of ghostwriters don’t do this so if you do hire me, make sure you tell me exactly what you want shown on the minisite. Provide examples of website designs that you like. I will provide you the draft and make sure that you approve it before I go ahead.

8. if you’re getting a web sales letter written, let the ghostwriter or copywriter know what your product is about and any story that you have which is related to the product. The ghostwriter or copywriter can then integrate the story into the sales letter which makes it more powerful. If you have bonuses included with your product, make sure that you tell the ghostwriter so that they can make a place for it in the sales letter.

Have you thought about the questions above before contacting a ghostwriter? Doing the necessary planning above will make life so much easier for the ghostwrtier and yourself. You’ll also have ghostwritten material which matches what you want.
