If you're ready to take your brand to the next level of awareness and influence, I am offering a package of thought leadership content at a steeply discounted price just for Forbes Council Members. When you choose this program, I will interview you and work closely with you to define and deliver a campaign of 10 expertly written thought leadership articles. With this program, you'll get:
- 3-5 columns suitable for submission to Forbes
- 5-7 articles that you can publish on your blog, LinkedIn page, newsletter, or other platforms (at your choice), to amplify the impact of each column
- A first draft and a revision of each article, as needed
- Suggested social media copy included with each article
This package also includes sourcing calls to develop your ideas and turn them into article topics.
