White Papers


Companies with real products to sell can and should give something away to generate good will, awareness, and credibility.  White papers are custom-written booklets that relay the message you have in mind.  Turn-around is usually just two to four weeks including several reviews/approval steps. The deliverable is a text file or Word file with optional illustration suggestions or sketches.  Typical length is 10 to 12 pages formatted or 3,000 to 4,000 words and final formatting and printing are up to you.  White papers can carry Dave’s byline, the name of a designated person in your organization (head of development, for example), or no attribution.  Position Papers are basically the same the product, but are shorter in length and customized to meet the client’s needs.


Dave has written dozens of papers on various topics, and here are just a few.   Contact Dave for more information or to discuss your needs.

“We hired Dave to write two white papers for a very picky client. The client
loved what he produced and approved both with minor edits. Dave can interface
well with clients, always coming across as friendly and personable while at
the same time maintaining an air of professionalism. We look forward to working
with him again.”   — Creative Director at Tech Image
