The Secret To Nailing Your Ghostwriting Client’s Voice (Every Single Time)

I want to share a secret with you to help you nail the nuances of a client’s natural speaking voice:

Record the call and work from the transcription.

This isn’t:

• “Cheating”
• Unethical
• Or you short changing the client

No, this is a skill I recommend all ghostwriters learn so they can speed up their writing process AND create quality work for their clients.

Why?

Because ghostwriting from a blank page is hard.

When you’re staring at a blank page, you are tasking yourself with “inventing the client’s voice” out of thin air — like magic.

And as much as we would all love to believe we are capable of such wizardry on command, the truth is, you don’t have to. A much easier approach is to hop on the phone with a client, record the call, and then get the call transcribed (using a software service like Rev.com or any of the emerging AI tools that can do this in seconds).

But what happens if your client doesn’t have the time to hop onto a call with you?
