Offering *free* blog/content writing (if you need something else, just ask!)
** EDIT: Oh gosh thank you so much for the support and reaching out to collaborate! Love the IH community :)
I am going to slow down in accepting requests at this point, because I have a big trip coming up back home to Oz, and don’t want to over commit.
So if you would like to work together please let me know, but only if it’s not urgent and me tackling it in January is ok with you. I will be writing this month for sure, but looks like I might have quite a few pieces to put together and I would like to do it to the best of my ability.
Thanks again :)

Hi folks.
By way of background, I'm taking a month or two off my main project to a) take a mental breather and so some other things, while b) I consider pivoting hard or shutting down my project.
One of the things that I am going to be doing in the meantime is writing. I would love to do more of it during the time - it's restorative for me and I enjoy the process.
I know that many of us need content written for our business or startup, so I'm offering my services here for free (up to 2 articles for each person / business, up to 10 articles total). Learning about others' ventures is really interesting for me, and I think my multi disciplined skill set (ex-engineer and patent attorney, now developer/solopreneur) is well suited for writing about tech.
Now, I am looking to also develop my portfolio, so I would really prefer to be credited but it's not a dealbreaker.
I do not require payment but if you're willing to give me a free sub to whatever your service is, I would not turn it down :).
So, if you need someone - hit me up! I am thinking a blog post, but feel free to let me know if you have something else in mind.
As to my portfolio/body of work -
- a blog article for my business:

I like your data-driven and scientific articles @hindsights_io. And I think I may also use your patent search product!
I am the founder of cashcoach.io, an app that turns saving into a competitive game. I want to educate millennials about money, spending behaviour, financial success... by writing data-driven stories on how people spend, how their habits affect their long term financial situation. For example there are 50M of Americans still repaying debt for their last Christmas spending.
Let me know you want to write cool data-driven stories, I can take care of the illustrations and give you free access to the Cash Coach premium plan (will be released in 2020).
Drop me a message at sam@cashcoach.co and we will discuss which topics would the best to blog about.

Guys we’ve just solved the inflation problem.
Hello! That's a great offer...
I am а little uncomfortable but I need your kind help. The problem is that we will launch our MVP in two weeks and understand well that we need an interesting article to explain about our project. But I can't find an Idea or way how to wrap it up, shape it up and turn into a cute message. This is why your help will be invaluable.
My project is Navitapp. we are trying to create a smart itinerary planner that will allow travelers to just in a few steps get curated the experience.
Thanks ;)
Hi!
Oh wow. Launching in two weeks! How exciting.
What are your key value propositions and initial target audience? If you have some points or an outline of what you’d like the message to be, we can discuss over that.
In a week or so I’m going on holiday so while I can do a bit of writing, putting in full days might be tricky. So I am not sure that I can commit to a job where it’s critical to your MVP and the bulk of the writing might be next week.
Wow, that's a generous offer!
I was planning to write an article for Hacker Noon on my product Growth Gecko to try and get a bit of traction.
The plan was to cover the nitty-gritty of sending out cold emails for enterprise sales (following the Predictable Revenue framework) - talking about what tools to use, who to target, what the email should look like etc. More than happy to give you tips on where to find this info, and write the article together if you're interested. And very happy to give you the credit - I just want the link to my product :)
Ooh what a cool project! Thanks for reaching out Daoud and yeah I’d love to work with you on this. I’m gonna be learning some new things, which is also very cool! I’ll drop you a line :)
Thanks JP - I've replied to your email, and looking forward to working on this together :)
