How Much Does Content Creation Cost?

An effective content marketing plan takes a team to execute. After hiring a content strategist, copywriter, editor, and graphic designer, the cost of your content marketing team can total upwards of $300K per year. In addition to cost, hiring in-house talent can be a lengthy process for growing marketing teams.

A common alternative is to hire contract freelancers. However, managing multiple freelancers can become a full-time job in itself, and working with people who aren’t up to speed on your brand presents its own set of challenges.
