‘Pitch’ your story idea. Amy will evaluate the best vehicle and timing to maximize the impact for your article. Don’t assume we’ll publish just whatever is sent to us. J
Some guidelines for your article are below.
- The article should be an informational piece approximately 300-500 words long.
- While we understand this is an opportunity to present your offerings and gain exposure with the audience, please tone down any blatant sales pitches. Concentrate on how your information may help or enlighten the reader. The information and knowledge you present shows your expertise on the selected topic while indirectly serving as marketing tool for your business.
- The article could be written on a recent trend in your respective industry, a process or application of your products in the market place or similar type story. The information and knowledge you present shows your expertise on the selected topic while indirectly serving as marketing tool for your business.
- The article should include the writer's name, title, company name and the products or services your company has, and call to action (or referring website). If you have a headshot, that would be a good idea as well.
- The staff may edit any article that is submitted for length, readability, or grammatical errors, but will work diligently to retain the message, tone and technical information contained within.
- If you have an applicable piece of art/diagram, that would be appreciated, though, of course, we're still working within space/style constraints.
