Articulate Wordsmithing

Custom wordcraft for clear, simple understanding.

Q: Is it true that the pen can be mightier than the sword?

Q: When a key message goes misunderstood, how costly can that be?

Q: If content is king, then how much content is good for business; how often?

get understood

Most people today encounter much more information communicated to them than people did in any prior era. This is why those aiming to achieve more through their marketing communications must strategically consider:

what to say
how to say it
who to say it to
by what channels
how often.

All that and more. We understand.

every word well chosen

bright minds, clear communication

Your own vocabulary can speak eloquently. Unlike software that applies artificial intelligence to make one-at-a-time suggestions, Articulate's bright minds first comprehend the overall situation in context, then approach clear communication wholistically, aiming to optimize outcomes for both the communicator of the message and each intended recipient of that message. Articulate wordsmiths also recognize what's better left unsaid.

truly tailored communications

Others offer off-the-shelf "content" from catalogues of already-written articles. Some customize stock "content" at another price range. By custom-crafting unique documents focused on each client communicating effectively with their own audience, Articulate wordsmiths create greater value: easy reading that brings about desired reader responses; intuitive reading that seems authentic.

eloquent plain English

To satisfy both marketer and market, effective marketing communications must be clear, concise, correct, and compelling. Key messages must also be timely, targeted, poignant, and persuasive. Developing a sharp understanding of the situation, then eloquently using plain English to communicate a meaningful message, an Articulate wordsmith can be a great ally.
