■ Introduction
■ Usertesting - The benefits of using a service
designed for this function
■ Upwork - The largest marketplace to find virtual
assistants
■ Freelancer.com - In case you need some diversity
■ TaskRabbit and other local marketplaces
43. This will make writing
your post much easier
for your writer, take a
lot less time, and ultimately cost you a
lot less money. I find that you can
transcribe a 7 minute video for between
$5 and $10.

47. I know this sounds like a lot of
work. But trust me, it’s easier than
posting on a job site and screening

writer in the marketing industry, I would
simply search “Top Marketing Blogs of
2015”. Here’s the list of blogs I’d be given.

up a list of actual blogs and click on
the one that sounds most like what
you’re looking for.
53.
54. Then I would read the last 20 blog
posts looking for the one that most
resonates with me and take note of
who wrote the post.
55.
56. Finally, I would check out his bio to see if
he would be interested in writing for me.
I usually steer clear of CEO’s, CMO’s of
companies and instead opt to find
professional bloggers within the industry
57.
58. I would repeat this process until I’ve
found 5 bloggers that I’d want to
work with.

60. Upwork formed when online outsourcing
powerhouses Odesk and Elance merged.

to complete. You can then compare and
select bidders. You pay once you’re

61. Freelancer.com is a global outsourcing
marketplace very similar in function to Upwork,
which allows potential employers to post jobs that
freelancers can then bid to complete.
Depending on your membership type, you
will be charged fees once a freelancer
accepts your offer.
62. Textbroker is a marketplace designed
specifically for businesses who need
custom content.
With Textbroker Self-Service, you

64. Now that you’ve chosen which
marketplace you want to use, you need

66. You’ve got your writer, you’ve got your
video, and you’ve got your transcript.

get your blog post written
69. You get to choose your own personal freelance
editor to edit your work based on his or her
qualifications, expertise, and skills, and benefit

72. This is a software that works similar to the
grammar check in your traditional word
processor.
However, it is a fairly cheap option if you just
need a bit more confidence in your post before
you hit publish
73. Let’s say you don’t want to spend a lot of money
on an editor. You’re in an industry where
grammar doesn’t mean a whole lot, and you
don’t need someone with extremely specific
expertise.
Then Fiverr is your answer. I’ve used it quite a bit
for editing services and the work produced is
more than adequate.
78. These are Google+ communities,
Linkedin groups, Facebook groups
that we belong to and contribute to
Frequently spamming these groups can be frowned
upon, so make sure that you have good karma within the group,
and you don’t abuse this strategy by posting the same content over and over
again
82. We also leverage the Reddit
community when we share our posts.
We find the relevant subreddit
within the community
and submit them
83. I never share the link with them right
away. I don’t want to come off as too pushy. Most
of these guys get emails all the time asking for
favors.
This strategy doesn’t back the person into a
corner. If they say “yes”, then email the link and
ask them to tweet it if they like your post.

96. Make sure that the title of your post lends
itself to a video or demonstration that you
can easily record.
This will make it easier to get your point
across to the person you hire to write the
blog post.
