Well, for one thing, copywriters don't charge per word; they either have hourly rates or day rates, like any other self-respecting freelancer.
Secondly, shape is right: native spaker/writer is no guarantee of quality. One of the very best CWs on the team I was managing at my old agency was from the Philippines, and was most certain'y not a native speaker.

It's been my experience that foreigners speak better English than the English.
Besides the upper class, but then they speak upperclass 'speak' which has random latin words thrown in it along with plenty of 'fucks' and 'buggers'.
