Writing
There are several ways that I can approach
writing a new document for you.
- In some cases the text will already exist in a
basic form. I can take your document and add further details where they
are required. This will involve some liaison with your permanent staff
to ensure that all the information I have is complete and current.
- Sometimes you may need to update an old
document. For example, if one of your products changes you may need a
new datasheet for your clients. I can produce a new document based on
the old one. Again, this will require some liaison with your permanent
staff to ensure that all irrelevant details are removed, and all the new
information is included.
- Occasionally you may need a completely new
document. In this case I can discuss your requirements, then do any
necessary research before writing the document to fit in with your house
style.
You may think that all of the above can be done
in-house, but there are often situations where a job is not started
because your staff don’t have the time to complete it to their
satisfaction. This is particularly true of updating documents where the
old version is almost right, and any differences can be explained
verbally. Although this may be the case, it does not reflect well on the
company.
