Content Strategy Test Kitchen

A 60-minute, pick-my-brain, work-on-whatever-you-need session. My time is completely yours to strategize, brainstorm, review, edit, work on your content, hash out issues, or discuss any other writing-related project. While I won’t be doing the writing, you’ll get plenty of recommendations on which steps to take on your own. It’s a low-risk way to check me out before committing to a larger project.

What can a Test Kitchen session be used for?
  • Review: existing website content, LinkedIn profile, draft web page, blog post, or case study
  • Brainstorm: case studies, blog post topics, social media post/article topics
  • Map out: website architecture
  • Another project of your choosing
Why jump into the Test Kitchen?
  • Get an extra set of expert eyes on your content.
  • Move your content strategy from “stuck” to “in control.”
  • Quickly get a second, unbiased opinion and immediately actionable ideas.
  • Test drive my services in a low-key, no-pressure, minimal-investment format.
  • Walk away with suggestions, concrete action items, and next steps.
How does it work?
  1. You book a 60-minute Content Strategy Test Kitchen session.
  2. If there’s content to review, you provide it at least 48 hours ahead of our scheduled meeting time.
  3. If it’s a brainstorming session, I need a basic idea of the topic and whatever work you’ve done so far.
  4. I review, compile a list of suggestions, and do some editing (if appropriate).
  5. At the session, we hash out content issues verbally, brainstorm, create a to-do list, and/or work on your content or strategy.
  6. Based on my pre-session review and our conversation, I recommend action items, next steps, and additional resources.
  7. We discuss any questions, come up with an action timeline, and summarize.
  8. I follow up with a recap.
What is my investment?
A Content Strategy Test Kitchen session is just $297.
