ClearVoice

Good way to find freelance content creators

Pros:

The software basically acts as an aggregator to connect brands and freelancers. Works well in that respect, good selection of content creators that make quality stuff.

Cons:

No major complaints, it does the job and does it well.

Great Support, Really Looks Out for Writers

Comments: Clearvoice has a steady stream of work which saves me tons of time. I don't have to go out and look for clients nearly as much as I used to because they come to Clearvoice. Since the clients have to pay upfront, the payment is released to me as soon as the article is complete, which means I don't have to chase down payments from yet another client. They also pay more than the average content agency.

Pros:

It is very easy to use and has a beautiful portfolio page, which I have linked to on my company website as my writing portfolio. Instant pay. The customer support is also top-notch as well. The person I work with on the support team is fast to respond.

Cons:

The fees they take are very high. I only get 80% of what the client pays for my services.

I used ClearVoice to access writing opportunities as a freelancer but received few projects.

Comments: I received a few well-paying writing jobs.

Pros:

ClearVoice is very easy to use from the freelancer standpoint. Opportunities that match your profile are emailed to you and you simply request to be considered for the opportunity or reject it. The assignments that I did receive were well-defined and paid well.

Cons:

The simplicity of this program is also its downfall in my opinion. As a freelancer, you are not given the opportunity to promote yourself individually for projects you apply for. In spite of lots of experience writing on many different topics, I often went a month or more without receiving any opportunities and over several years was accepted to write less than five.

Your writers will appreciate you using Clearvoice

Comments: I'm a writer who has used Clearvoice in diverse capacities for many clients. I have worked with the interface since it originally started and have been impressed with its evolution and stellar customer support. The one lone time I had a support ticket, the issue was resolved (and the interface improved) within mere hours. Accepting assignments and reading through the details is clear and easy. I always feel confident what I have written is what gets to the client, and I also have time to fix mistakes or leave a quick edit after I submit my assignment. The commenting system within Clearvoice is valuable, because I can get client feedback in the same space where I'm writing, without the pain point of having to minimize or switch windows. The design is thoughtful, intuitive and simple enough for anyone to master. The layout is pleasant and elegant, adding to the pleasurable sentiment of taking on a writing assignment. I'd recommend Clearvoice both to assignment editors and writers as a great vehicle for content marketing.

Pros:

Design, ease of use, user experiencer

Incredible tool to help standardize our content creation process

Comments: Time saved is a big portion of this but also organization of content within one place and a solid set of writers that you can work directly with (instead of working through an intermediary) is a huge plus for us.

Pros:

ClearVoice does a great job with its platform (that's always improving and making our lives easier), its writer marketplace, and with it's customer support that have been some of the best I've worked with.

Cons:

There really isn't much but it's worth saying that it is a bit pricey for what it is. If you're a single business creating a small amount of content, it certainly isn't right for you based on the price but if you're doing a large portion of content then this is worth the investment.
