Warning: don't let your client talk you into cheap content mills

Had to choose between a $500/mo agency writer and a $50/mo Fiverr gig for a big real estate client. Picked the cheap route to save budget, but after 3 weeks the grammar was so bad the client threatened to leave. Had to spend 8 hours rewriting everything myself.

Oh man, I used to think cheap was the way to go too. But yeah, that sounds like a nightmare, 8 hours of fixing someone else's mess is brutal. Definitely not worth the savings.

That cheap route used to sound fine to me until I had to tear apart a wiring job that looked like a tangled mess of spaghetti. @finleyk87 now I just budget for someone who actually knows what they're doing the first time. The headache of fixing that stuff is just not worth the few bucks you save.
