One of the highest-rated PR agencies in North America came to us with a problem: their CEO no longer had the time to write a concise, monthly industry newsletter that he had personally written and sent to a curated list of high-level contacts for years. This newsletter, targeted at decision-makers such as CEOs and CMOs at small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), was a crucial tool for thought leadership and client engagement.
The agency needed a solution to maintain the newsletter’s quality and frequency without overburdening its resources or losing the impact of the CEO’s voice and tone, so they partnered with the team here at Bizwrite Digital PR.
The Solution
Our team stepped in to manage the newsletter’s content creation and curation, adopting the CEO’s established persona and voice.
Our Approach
- Content Curation: We meticulously research and select relevant stories each month, focusing on PR and communications issues affecting household brands, as well as timely news events that resonate with our target audience.
- Persona Adoption: We thoroughly examined the firm’s existing content, including YouTube videos, blog posts, articles, social media presence, podcasts, and more, to accurately reflect its writing style, tone, and perspectives.
- Value-Driven Content: We prioritized providing valuable insights and actionable advice, framing the content to align with the firm’s services without resorting to overt sales pitches.
- Consistent Delivery: We established a streamlined process to ensure both the article pitches and the final copy for the newsletter were delivered on time, every month.
Results of the Partnership
Since 2020, our efforts have yielded significant positive outcomes, including sustained engagement from top organizational decision-makers, enhanced thought leadership, increased brand awareness among this highly selective demographic, and overall resource optimization.
- Sustained Engagement: The newsletter has consistently maintained a readership, with positive feedback from subscribers on the relevance and quality of its content.
- Enhanced Thought Leadership: By consistently delivering valuable insights, the newsletter has reinforced the firm’s position as a thought leader in the PR industry.
- Increased Brand Awareness: The newsletter has helped to keep the firm top-of-mind among key decision-makers, contributing to increased brand awareness and recognition.
- Resource Optimization: By outsourcing the newsletter creation process, the firm has been able to focus on other strategic priorities, such as client management and business development.
