1 How did you come up with the idea of your brand/service/ company? (Tell us your story) 2 What is the story behind the people involved? (We can’t meet you in person, but we’d love to know the motive behind each person’s’ involvement in the organization) 3 Let’s talk content! Here’s is a list of the questions we ask you to be as close to your strategy or intent that we can be. Here’s some deeper insight into our process. We like to dive deeper into the experience you’re trying to create for your target consumers. We work towards analysing your intent and the value you want to create. What gap does your product/ service fill? 4 What were the challenges you faced while starting out and building this up? 5 How would you define your brand’s voice? (This is important to understand where you come from, you know the difference of voices between Ellen and Trump?) 6 What is your broad purpose as an organization? (Content builds up an image, and we’d like to know what’s the greater purpose) 7 What is the specific purpose of this particular piece and how does it fit into the bigger picture? 8 What is the ideal profile of the writer? (So we can find just the right person) 9 Who is at the forefront of this piece - who is the potential speaker of this content? (So that we know how high the stakes are, and what kind of content is expected) 10 Who is the target audience? Illustrate the typical persona types, and the ones you are specifically targeting. 11 What are the pain points of your consumers and the potential audience for the publication? (Help us understand what you think about your consumers) 12 What are some sources you’d suggest for us to use? 13 Do you have any specific formatting details we should take care of? (We’ve all got OCD for text sizes and typefaces) 14 You need any visuals to be accompanied with the text? If you already have one, please share it, or if you need suggestions, please mention. (Visual cues work well, if you develop them independently, that helps writers to know what kind of information works well.) 15 What do you intend to do with the piece - intrigue, interest or inform? (The tonality, voice and structure of the write-up depends on what the purpose is) 16 How do you suggest the call to action be placed - outright or inbound?
