Pitches wanted (business, jobs, etc.) | $300+ per article

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: BUSINESS INSIDER

Manseen Logan, Editor of Freelancers at Business Insider, is looking for pitches:

I'm on the editorial side so I'm always accepting business stories that humanize the business world—first-person essays, job diaries, and as-told-to essays. Rates start at $300.

It's very easy for pitches to get buried between all the other emails, so I like to have 'pitch' in the subject line. I advise writers to not send me a draft because if it's already written, I'm not going to read it. Just send a very strong paragraph talking about the topic and if it grabs my attention, I will try to respond.

CONTACT INFORMATION (please do not share the email address publicly):

• Submissions: mlogan@insider.com
• Website: https://www.businessinsider.com/
