Writing smart content for the Web: train your lawyers to create really good content

Manuel Pueyo · Feb 12, 2020 ·

With the internet providing the most powerful means of distribution, design has become the most effective mean of differentiation.

There are billions of pages on the internet. To do better than your competitors, you simply need smarter content.

Spot the Smart Content
Spot the Smart Content

Smart content is usable. It doesn’t only provide the information people need but makes that information easy to access, understand, and act upon. It has audience-appropriate terminology and literacy level, clear and consistent formatting and presentation.

In this course, we will walk, hand in hand, with your team members on a journey
towards creating smart content by finding the words that will help them achieve
professional objectives. Finding the words, that your clients use and understand.

Who is this workshop for?

Law firms. But also professional service sector teams (accountant, insurances, institutions, NGO) who are investing in digital content as an strategic business asset. They want to get more results out of their web content and they want to train their employees on how to write for the web.

Is your law firm investing strategically in web content as a marketing or business asset? Then this workshop might be for you:

  • For your lawyers writing for the web, improving their productivity, efficiency and effectiveness.
  • For your communication and business development team.

What is the size of the law firm?

A team of minimum 7 members who are committed to writing and putting in place an editorial strategy for their website.

Spoiler Alert !  An inbound content strategy involves a lot of work and time. In order to stand out from the crowd you are going to have to write creative usable content on a regular basis for a long period of time. This is expensive to produce and no short term outcomes can be expected .
