Project Description
I want a seasoned business writer who can craft publication-ready feature pieces that position our well-established company’s recent financial success—backed by new funding and fresh investment—as a compelling growth story. Forbes is the primary target, but I’m also open to seeing adapted versions land in other tier-one business magazines once the flagship piece is secured.
Here’s how I see the workflow unfolding:
• You’ll interview our leadership (or work from the briefing deck I supply) to extract the strongest numbers and narrative threads around our latest investment round and overall revenue momentum.
• Draft a 1,000-word Forbes-style article that blends solid data, quotes, and market context while meeting Forbes’ contributor guidelines.
• After my approval, refine the piece and, if you have the connections, shepherd it through the pitch or contributor submission process until it is accepted for publication.
• Once the Forbes placement is confirmed, lightly tailor the content for at least one additional reputable outlet so we maximise reach without diluting the core message.
Acceptance criteria
1. Forbes article published under either a staff-editor or contributor byline.
2. Copy accurately reflects the verified funding figures I provide.
3. A second magazine placement (Fast Company, Inc., Fortune, or similar) using an adapted version.
