Know When to Call the Professionals

If your company’s air conditioner breaks down mid-July, you wouldn’t hesitate to call an HVAC specialist. If a server goes down, you don’t instruct the IT team to consult the reception staff. Yet when issues arise with the success of reports, grants, and other documents, many organizations limit the review process to colleagues.
                                  
Although peer review is an important part of the writing process, it isn’t the solution for chronic problems. You need to know when to call the professionals.

Time for the pros
When should you bring in technical writing specialists?

• You need an objective review of a document
• A report is too important, complex, or time-consuming for staff writers
• You need to supplement a busy staff
• You are planning to have documents translated
• Staff writers have a chronic issue with a particular aspect of writing
• Your employees would benefit from a writing refresher

Trained writing specialists have skill and experience with medical writing, technical writing, proposal writing, and business writing. So regardless of your industry, a customized writing course will improve communication and drive results for your team.  

A polished product
At times, you need hands-on assistance with writing and editing critical materials. A professional knows how to guarantee the success of important documents, like grants. A company like Hurley Write, Inc., that has gained more than $10 million in funding for clients, can help secure crucial financial support.

A writing expert can also make sense of materials that require input from multiple employees. Workers are often too busy to take on the overwhelming back-and-forth task of editing a company writing project. When projects require input from numerous sources, they often get neglected. A professional writer will take time to track down appropriate information for documents like these:

• User manuals
• Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
• Compliance reports
• Training materials

A writing expert will consult subject matter experts (SMEs) in your organization to develop new content, or he or she can edit existing documentation to make it shine.

Get proven results
Professional business, technical, or scientific writers use proven methods for achieving results from documents. By writing more efficiently and learning how to communicate complex ideas, your employees can benefit from results-driven writing, too.

The staff at Hurley Write is proficient in writing and editing for a variety of industries, including biotechnology, pharmaceutical, government, academic, nonprofit, and sales. We’re also excellent instructors.

Let us develop a custom writing course for your team either onsite or online. Company-specific materials and fast feedback will give your employees the writing skills they need to excel.
