Client Brief Template for Freelance Copywriters: Get Perfect Briefs Every Time
Incomplete client briefs waste time and hurt your copywriting quality. Reddit’s r/freelanceWriters notes, “Clients don’t know what they want,” leaving copywriters guessing. A client brief template for freelance copywriters ensures you get detailed, actionable inputs upfront, saving 3 hours/week ($5,000+/year). Here’s a ready-to-use template, powered by PaperFlow’s new copywriting forms.
