I own a small start up company specializing in freelance writing solutions of all kinds. Bitcoin is something, I, personally, have been interested in for a long time. My idea here was to start this company using BTC as the sole method of payment. I feel as though this would help to broaden the prospects for Bitcoin. This means that the writing services we offer will be fully Bitcoin integrated, and available to everyone. My limited knowledge of the BTC market has led me to ask:

Would this be something that the BTC community would be interested in? Although I'd love to help the BTC market expand to new places, my motives cannot be entirely altruistic. Would a Bitcoin integrated Freelance Writing Business be something desirable? I've worked out the logistics, I just need the go-ahead from someone that knows bitcoin in order to push forward the paperwork.

Thanks in advance for advice!

I think your idea is cool, but why just writing? Why not create a service like fiverr.com where all kinds of services can be traded for bitcoin?

What we're trying to do is more like a business where our writers cater to the customers-not an open market kind of thing

Id say you have a market here, but Id also advice you to stay open for other forms of payment. While new coins or projects will need texts written I am not sure that the demand will be high enough. You can start with minimal investment by just opening a thread in the service section offering your (employees) skills.

Is only your knowledge of the market limited or also your experience with bitcoin as a form of payment?

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

That's a cool idea, actually. It'd be like those specialized job boards you see for 3D artists (I've visited a few), only for writers.

If you only accept one form of payment then you will decrease your potential market.

See the private internet access VPN that bitcointalk advertises, they accept "mainstream" payment methods but also accept BTC and this is the selling point for the BTC community.

yes if you only accept bitcoin then your potential will be decreased because there are less people know properly about bitcoins

Not only that but not everyone has access to bitcoin when they wish to purchase something.

If someone were to adapt to using bitcoin but did not deal primarily in bitcoin they may wish to purchase this company's product but have no way of paying.
