Get the idea
Your first contact with content, once you decide to become a freelancer for this market, will be the idea. In section 2.2 we explained how the planning staff comes up with an idea. As a writer, however, it is your job to understand what the planning created and put it on paper in a way that matches
their expectations.
It may happen that you completely disagree with the approach to the topic and think that it is not the best way to deal with it. However, it is important that you follow the demands of the idea without hesitation, since they were made based on the details of the person, the client and their Content Marketing strategy, and therefore may be different from your personal opinion.
That's why the job description itself (or pitch) will help you understand how you can deliver on the promise made in the title, understand the person better, their stage in the funnel, the relevance of the content, and what's the best way to communicate with them.
