Hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter
Hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter who posts and converts.
Hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter when the posts have to sound like you and end in a conversation with a named buyer. Underdog writes and publishes on LinkedIn in your voice. You give 30 minutes a week. The point of the hire is meetings, not a prettier feed.
Who this hire is for
You are a founder, a CEO or a senior operator, and your buyers already scroll LinkedIn. You have tried posting: ninety minutes of writing, eleven likes, then silence. Or you already have a ghostwriter, and the posts are grammatical but nobody could tell they are yours. Either way you want one hire that covers voice, cadence and publishing, and you want the price before the call. Engagements start at $2,500 a month.
How the hire works
A short call first, to see whether your buyers and your voice are a fit. We will say no if they are not. Then voice capture: how you think, what you will not say, and the stories only you have. After that, one 30-minute session a week. You talk. Senior writers draft from that session, not from a content calendar written in the abstract. You approve. We schedule and publish. A weekly report shows replies, profile visits and meetings, not a stack of impressions with no name attached.
What you should demand from any ghostwriter
A named buyer, not "thought leaders". A sample that could only have come from the client, not a template with the name swapped. Publishing included, so the draft does not die in your inbox. A human who is still there in month four. A price on the page. If you are comparing us with a freelancer, the honest split is on the agency page: one diary versus a team that keeps the cadence when someone is away. The market numbers, including when the freelancer is the better buy, are in the 2026 cost and pricing guide. The buyer's checklist, including red flags and when to hire in-house, is how to hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter.
What a month of posts looks like
A working cadence rotates formats, because different buyers stop for different shapes. In a typical month you will ship first-person stories that carry a lesson, a contrarian take on your category, a teardown of a real problem, and one or two design assets built to be saved. Every post opens with a hook that earns "see more", closes with a reason for the right person to reply, and sounds like you, because it started as something you said.
Proof
One post reached 2M views and turned into signed business inside the first fortnight. That is the hire working: a conversation, then a yes. The rest of the numbers are on the results page.
A single piece took a client's account from a few hundred followers to 30,000. Reach is not the goal. It is what happens when the right idea is published on purpose.
What it costs
Engagements start at $2,500 a month, billed quarterly, because ninety days is the minimum for content to compound. Most clients land between $2,500 and $6,500 depending on volume and formats. See the pricing page for our tiers, and the 2026 cost and pricing guide for market ranges and when an agency beats a freelancer.

Questions buyers ask
How do I hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter?
Start with a fit call, then a voice-capture session, then one 30-minute conversation a week. You approve every post. We schedule and publish. Hire someone who writes to a named buyer and owns the cadence, not a drafter who hands you a Google Doc and leaves the posting to you. The engagement is spelled out on this page, from $2,500 a month.
Who should hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter?
Founders, CEOs and senior operators whose buyers already spend time on LinkedIn. You have either stopped posting, or you have a writer whose posts could belong to anyone. If you need a firm rather than a single writing engagement, read the LinkedIn ghostwriting agency page. If the brief is executive judgement beyond a LinkedIn cadence, start with executive ghostwriting.
What does it cost to hire a LinkedIn ghostwriter?
Our retainers are $2,500, $3,500 or $6,500 a month, billed quarterly, with publishing included. Per-post freelancers leave strategy, editing and distribution with you. The tiers are on the pricing page. The 2026 market ranges are in the cost and pricing guide.
Should I hire an agency or a freelancer?
Hire a freelancer for a single essay you will edit line by line and then stop. Hire an agency when the posts have to keep converting after one person is on holiday. A freelancer is one diary. An agency is senior writers, editors, design and research, so the cadence does not stop. That comparison is the point of the agency page.
Do you post for me, or only draft?
We post. Scheduling, publishing and distribution are part of the hire. Your part is one 30-minute conversation a week and a few minutes of review. Nothing goes live without your sign-off.
How soon do meetings show up?
One client signed business in week two off a single post. More often, replies from the right accounts show up within weeks, and the compounding takes the first quarter. We ask for ninety days because that is what the cadence needs.
What should I ask before I hire anyone?
Who writes, and how senior are they? Do you publish, or do I? What happens to the cadence on holiday? Can I see a voice that is not a template? How do you report meetings, not just impressions? Where does my voice guide live if we part ways? If the answers are vague, keep looking.
Hire the writer. Keep the meetings.
A short call tells you whether your buyers, your voice and this engagement are a fit. We will say so if they are not.
