White papers and ebooks attract new customers and create brand loyalty like nothing else. They are also large and often complex projects that need to speak to just the right audience – via the right channels – at the right time in the sales funnel.
Here’s how I can make sure all the elements come together so your publication stands out from the crowd.
Writing
- Determine the proper content and format based on market analysis
- Work with executives, sales teams, graphic designers, SMEs, and other team members to plan projects from the ground up
- Thoroughly research the subject and cite the most credible sources
- Draft informative, compelling, and useful content that will keep customers coming back for more
- Work with the graphic artist to ensure text and visual elements complement each other
- Consult with executives, sales teams, and marketing teams to ensure that publications are functional for multiple purposes/channels while maintaining brand integrity
Project Management
- In addition to consultation and writing, I’m comfortable managing the entire white paper team and can use the project management tools of your choice. Recommended for first-time white paper projects and companies looking to outsource responsibilities.
- Do you lack in-house graphic designers and other resources? Ask about turnkey solutions.
White Paper Plans
Do you have all the personnel in-house to complete your white paper, but want to further define your project?
Do you desire a more streamlined workflow and successful final product?
Or to get a better feel for your writer or your role in the project?
