I believe small business is the foundation for most communities. The best way to keep them thriving for generations is to provide them with the tools and support that are necessary to stay current with technology while continually reaching their target audience in the way that audience wants to be reached..

Answers to My Most Frequently Asked Questions

LET'S GET STARTED

Most services and workshops are available to purchase through my website.

Even though a service or workshop can be purchased through my site, a CONSULTATION will likely be required.

A consultation allows us one-on-one time to fully discuss your needs, whether in business, with genealogy or on a personal level.

Consult Forms are required a full 24 hours prior to a consultation call. Your responses within the Consult Forms contain information that will help me be able to provide you with better quality of service. I also continue making notes on those forms while we are on our Consultation call.

Some services and workshops require a Consultation call BEFORE AN ESTIMATE can be provided and payment can be accepted. Those services will clearly state to REQUEST A CONSULTATION prior to an estimate being given so you can locate them easily.

For those services, I'll provide you with an estimate after our Consultation Call. Once you agree to the estimate, I will provide you with a contract. The contact is to be kept as receipt for services and should be given to your tax preparer.

My services are provided as a business expense, so please be sure to ask your tax preparer about ways in which you will be able to use them on your tax return.

Even the services and workshops that can be purchased directly require a contract to be signed prior to the start of any project.

Every contract will outline the service being provided; even if it's a workshop, the cost, the start date + end date.

Don't forget to write down all of your questions prior to our Consultation call so that I can be sure to answer them all for you.

WHY SHERRIFOWLER.COM

I appreciate your finding me on the web. This is the place you’ll get to know about my background and why my God-given gifts have helped me create resolutions for my clients for over 30 years.

My name is Sherri Smith and I founded SherriFowler.com in 1991.

 

What are the benefits of hiring Sherri Smith?

My education is in accounting, business, finance, real estate and creative writing.  My career choices, creativity, plus my love for numbers, data, research and writing are what make me unique to freelancing.

My passion for entrepreneurship, organization, problem solving, business systems and workflows have helped me serve my clients well while also building a sustainable business that’s been full of long-term clients for over 30 years.

There are several benefits to small business owners when they hire me.

  1. Every service I provide is on an as-needed basis. The benefit to that is that business owners only pay for the service they need; when they need it.
  2. Business owners hire me as an independent contractor. The benefit to that is that when business owners pay me they don’t pay me as an employee; which means there’s no payroll taxes, paid days off, or benefits package.
  3. I’m a home-based business. The benefit to that is that my overhead is low; which in turn is the reason I’m able to keep my prices low.

All of the above, of course, has not only been a way to benefit my clients, but has also been a way to support myself and my family for over three decades.

Over the years I’ve had thousands of initial conversations with clients that have all been very similar; they thought they were too small of a business to be able to afford to hire an assistant. Yet, they were also struggling to do EVERY THING themselves. 

That’s where I come in. Supporting small business owners is the reason I began my business. My desire to help them hasn’t changed in over thirty years. My support services allow the small business owner to focus on the most important tasks of any business, the ones that produce revenue.

I hope you allow me to share my knowledge, skills, techniques and creativity with you so we can take your dream of entrepreneurship and build an amazing and sustainable business for you.

 

Fun fact:  At age 33 I rededicated my life to Christ by asking him back into my heart. After a rebellious stint God again gave me Grace. #JesusIsKing

 

How SherriFowler.com got its start.

When I created this venture, it was as a side business in order to create documents, patient forms, marketing materials and perform ghostwriting services for Central Ohio Orthotic & Prosthetic Center, Inc. in Columbus, Ohio.

My entrepreneur bug, however, began years prior to starting SherriFowler.com.

 

What is Sherri Fowler, LLC?

Sherri Fowler, LLC is a combination of Smith Ridge Farm and SherriFowler.com. Smith Ridge Farm is located in Adams County, Ohio and is not only a Farm that sells products, but it’s also where my family and I call home.

SherriFowler.com is a home-based business, located on our Farm, and it provides small business owners with behind-the-scenes support services.

Back in 1991, when I began SherriFowler.com, it was somewhat rare to have a home-based business that provided support services. In those days, our finished work was delivered by courier if the business was local or by postal delivery if it wasn’t. There was also phone and in-person conversations compared to email.

Technology has changed all of those old ways of providing support services. Now we can provide a wider array of services to business owners and provide them more efficiently. Whatever can be accomplished inside a brick-and-mortar business office can also be accomplished inside a home-based business….and no one can tell the difference.

While I’ve sold other businesses, Sherri Fowler, LLC remains the one I continue to pour my passion into.

It’s a combination of things that I enjoy; such as, data, business, analytics, research & fact-finding, organization, technology, history and opportunities to freelance. It’s also allowed the opportunity for our family business to develop, which is Smith Ridge Farm.

Sherri Fowler, LLC also combines my love for Jesus, my fight to protect the victims of crimes against humanity and my admiration for all of those who desire to be a business owner.

I’m in my happy place when I get to find opportunities to combine my skills, knowledge, and experience with my passion of helping others build and sustain their businesses.

Yes, I Offer On-site + Virtual Services

If you’re in Ohio, Kentucky or West Virginia, I offer on-site support. Even if your business is within those states, I also offer online or virtual support services. For businesses outside of the tri-state area, I only offer virtual support services.

Business today doesn’t always take place in a brick-and-mortar location. It can take place in your car, in your home-office, and even on your smartphone. Using me as your virtual support system increases the tools at your disposal, the people available to help you consistently…which, of course, all increases your productivity and your businesses bottom line. Virtual support systems are the best and least expensive way to capitalize on productivity, manage your business and achieve your goals…without the cost of a full-time employee that is paid a benefit package.

I am not a full-time employee that you’ll pay a benefit package to. I work as an independent contractor, which means, your accountant will be provided a copy of my tax id number so they can issue a 1099 for tax filing purposes. And, yes, you can claim my services to you or your business on your taxes. You’ll need to talk to your accountant for the specifics of your tax filing process.

There are ZERO hidden fees when working with me. You won’t pay me a salary. You won’t pay me through payroll; which means no federal, state, local or unemployment taxes. You won’t pay me for vacation time or sick time. You won’t pay me a retirement or insurance package. You won’t pay me a sign-on bonus.

When a client signs my estimate for each project; that is the cost. The only thing that would change that is if the client makes a change to the project or if there are traveling costs involved with a client's project. And, if that happens, I will send an addendum to the contract to either reduce the contracted price for the project, or increase it; depending on the change the client requests.

Click HERE to learn more about me.

Yes, I Require a Contract

Yes, I do require a contract. It not only helps me stay on track with our goals, but it also provides a step-by-step guide to you of what we are going to accomplish together and the timeline we will get it accomplished within. An estimate is provided each time we work on a project together and a contract is signed each time as well.

 

Learn more about me by clicking HERE.

What Form of Payment is Accepted

Most services and workshops are available for direct purchase from my website and payment with credit card is accepted.
 
If I provide you with an estimate for services or workshops that are not available for direct purchase from my website, I will provide you with a link to pay by credit card or ACH transfer.
Click HERE to learn more about me.

Confidentiality With EVERY Client

Absolutely! I never mention clients I ghostwrite for. When I promote content I have ghostwritten, I always promote it with the client attributed as the author. You gain full usage and rights to the content I develop once you have paid for it in full.

ALL of my services are confidential. In the contract that I sign for each client project, there is a non-disclosure agreement. It doesn't matter what type of service I provide to my clients....it's confidential.

Click HERE to learn more about me.

Client's Intellectual Property

I understand that trust is THE most important factor in any relationship, including a business one. Therefore,I go above and beyond to make sure your intellectual property is safe. My contract with each client includes a confidentiality and non-compete agreement. You won’t see or hear me discussing any client or their project without written approval from them for me to do so. My business success directly depends on my client’s success. For me to be able to provide service to my clients since 1991, I feel confident in my ability to keep my client’s intellectual property secure.
Click HERE to learn more about me.

Will I be Updated About My Project

Absolutely! Depending on the scope of the project, updates can range from daily to monthly. Updates will be discussed during your discovery call and will be included as part of my client onboarding process.

Yes, I Accept Recurring Projects

Of course! No two businesses are alike, so project needs can vary. We can discuss all of that during our discovery call. That way I can give you an accurate estimate and carve out the time needed on my schedule for each monthly, quarterly or recurring time-frame you need.
Click HERE to learn more about me.

Yes, I Accept Rush Projects

Projects on a tight deadline can be typically be completed within 24-72 hours; depending on the scope. Rush projects will include an additional fee equaling 30% of the original cost of the project. If a rush project requires working through the weekend or a holiday, there will be an additional fee equaling 50% of the original cost of the project.

Yes, I Can Provide Blogging Services

You can supply the topics and outlines or I can suggest topics that will resonate well with your target audience. We can also do a combination of both. One option that has always worked well with my clients is for me to interview the client. From that perspective, I get first-hand topics that the client would like to cover. It also allows for inside knowledge from the client that is specifically unique to them. From there, I can tap into those interviews, further my research, and be able to create content from the client’s unique perspective. Every client is unique and there are NO two businesses alike; even if businesses provide the same service or product, because the owners of those businesses aren’t alike. It’s perspective!
Click HERE to learn more about me.

My Cancellation Policy

If a client terminates a project, prior to the start date, the client agrees to pay a kill-fee of $300.
If the kill-fee is less than the initial payment the client made, the client will receive a refund for the excess amount.

If a client terminates or reschedules a Consultation less than 24 hours before the Consultation is to begin, there will be a fee of $15.

Primary Method to Communicate With Clients

My primary method of communication is email. I have found over the years that it’s a better fit for my clients to stay in-touch that way because email allows my clients to access our joint communications, whenever it’s convenient for them to do so. The last thing I want to do is add more to my client’s to-do list. However, I am happy to utilize all aspects of communication if a client would prefer to stay in-touch in any other way.

How Do Projects Get Managed

I use every tool I mention in my blog. I use project management software that schedules every single project from start to finish.  During my daily tasks, I use a project management software to stay on track within each project. Each project is broken down into incremental tasks with deadlines for those tasks to be completed. I operate my business no differently than any other business. Every detail needs to be setup as a task with each task having a deadline to meet.

How is Pricing Determined

Each project has a minimum threshold, but the price can increase depending on the scope. Project price is determined by a number of factors; such as, complexity, the amount of research or time required for setting up business programs, deadline, frequency, and/or word count if this is a content writing project, etc. All projects start with a quote, so you can determine if my pricing aligns with your budget. If a client changes the terms during the project, there may be an increase in the project cost. For example; if a project is requested to be completed by the 15th of the month, but the client determines that the project needs to be completed sooner than that; there will likely be an increase in the project cost which would be different than the initial quote.

Difference Between Copywriting + Content Writing

My copywriting is a delivery of words made by strategy that results in an action being taken by the reader; such as making a purchase or signing up for a newsletter and/or sharing content. It’s perfect for websites, blogs, newsletters, brochures, ads, etc.

My content marketing is a delivery of words to create a connection with the reader and invoke feelings through storytelling. It’s perfect for engaging an audience, positioning a business or business owner as an industry leader and growing their audience.

Even if copywriting, content writing or long form writing for blog posts is new to you, we can cover all of the options while we strategize during our initial discovery call about your project.

My Revision Policy

All projects include 2 revisions. Additional revisions can be requested, however there will be an additional charge for each revision. If revision requests aren’t received within 5 business days of project submission to client, it will be assumed the project is satisfactory and no revisions are necessary. Additional fees may apply if revisions are requested once the 5-day window has closed.

Yes, I Can Ghostwrite Your Book

The short answer is YES!

What would be the cost to ghostwrite my book?

The price for book projects can range depending on the scope of the project and the services you need included. Multiple book orders and simplified, unformatted books will be on the lower end, while individual book projects requiring phone interviews, formatting for CreateSpace, sidebars, call-out boxes and other features will be on the higher end. I will be able to give you an estimate after our 60-minute discovery call.

Do I have to pay for the book up front?

A 25% deposit is required before service begins. Smaller increments are due when each section of the book is completed and turned in. Estimates are provided after our discovery call.

Benefits of an Author Byline

A great reason to allow a freelance writer to have an author byline for the content they create is because many freelance writers are well known and have built a strong authority. That means they have a large audience to promote content to and their content will boost the overall authority of your blog.

The flip side of that is, if you have a ghostwriter to create content that you can place your name upon, it gives you the chance to become well known and build a strong authority in your industry.

Difference Between Freelance Writing + Guest Blogging

With a freelance writer, you can have full control over topics, voice, self-promotion, and the revision process. When I freelance write for you as a ghostwriter or in long form blog posts, you are in control over all the specifics so your business brand stays consistent.

Guest bloggers will expect to have more freedom with the content they create. Guest bloggers make posts for free, for the opportunity to promote their own website or business.
