Topic: [Hiring] Technical Writer @ BAKD Solutions (Read 222 times)

Position filled.

It does look that way. If you can't fund for someone to do the hardwork then you find no value your own project. If you can find someone out there in fiverr with knowledge about blockchain, its your lucky day. There are people from fiverr which you might wanna train first. Teach them how things work in crypto and then hire them that at least is your option.

That's your only hope. Maybe, you just might get lucky.

Your lack of fiat finances to pay upfront for a decent quality whitepaper shows that:
1) your project is unappealing to investors in the pre-seed stage, and
2) you, and your entire team, are lacking in confidence about this project hence not committing fiat funds especially for important dev work like whitepaper writing.

That being the case, which sane, qualified technical writer is going to waste precious work hours on your bait. Even Fiverr operators will turn down such a proposal.

I'm sorry, but I do not see how any professional technical writer would jump at this offer.
You don't even have enough funds to pay someone for their work, instead you're just giving them tokens without any value whatsoever.

Anyone who has the qualifications you've listed there, would have no problem finding a job that actually pays them.

The best you can reasonably get for that kind of offer is someone who needs to build their portfolio and has no experience in technical writing.

Not going to quote all of the above, however we are putting in our own money for quite a lot. If the consensus is that all writers just want FFS (fee for service) then that's the route I'm happy to go down as it will save us money in the long run.

Sorry for your experiences...I've always been lucky with ICOs I've partnered with in terms of writing services. If you cannot afford to pay upfront I don't even consider writing for you. ICO is big business, that's why scammers are keying in. Accepting crappy tokens or even writing a whitepaper without getting all your payment is an absolute waste of time. These whitepapers are time consuming. When you factor in the number of blog posts you would have made with that time ...I advise all writers to charge upfront. You shouldn't be running a fund drive without the willingness to put in your own money.

I clicked on this thinking I might apply but I concur. I've written whitepapers in the past but won't do so anymore without some kind of guaranteed real money payment. I recently concluded involvement in an ICO that started with zero marketing funds. It was an utter failure. We still owe worthless tokens to a few hundred bounty participants, who drove very minimal traffic to our website, which resulted in basically no sales.

If you can allocate a fiat, or BTC/ETH budget for this, then I can help you.

Usually projects that don't have a significant budget fail, and those looking to pay for their fundamentals in tokens are prime candidates for failure.

I would suggest paying for the bulk of your marketing materials in cash or you will see lackluster results.

You said someone has been taken already
