Description
WallStreetZen is a fast growing fintech startup that builds high quality stock analysis tools for the part-time investor, and we're scaling up our content marketing.
This is a great opportunity for the right writer(s). As a former freelance writer myself, I've been in your shoes. This is the role I dreamed of.
We have a constant pipeline of work with competitive comp ($0.10-$0.15/word). No more unpaid time hunting for gigs!
There's also an opportunity to progress to senior writer or editor (if that's what you want), and dive deep into content marketing and stock investing.
What will you be writing?
Informational content teaching users about stock investing
Objective, in-depth comparisons of different investing-related products (including comparing our product with competitors - see example here)
In-depth reviews of stock investing products
Guides to teach users how to take advantage of features on our platform (like our stock screener)
You can review our blog and knowledge base for more examples.
