Working in partnership

At Alex Genn Copywriting, we believe in a collaborative approach. At the start of the process, we'll allocate a senior-level writer, with specific experience in your sector. You'll work with them one to one, and they'll function as an extension of your team. We work closely with your team to understand your goals and gather the necessary data. We'll make sure our methodology and strategy align with your vision and objectives, so we start, and finish 'on the same page'.

Our Process

We've refined our approach over many years, to ensure a smooth, collaborative process, that doesn't miss anything and always delivers. Here's a brief overview - you can explore our approach in more detail here.

1. Initial consultation: We kick off by discussing your project in detail. This will enable your annual report copywriter to understand your requirements and objectives in detail.
2. Collecting and understanding data: The writer will then gather all relevant pre-existing information and analyse it to ensure accuracy and relevance.
3. Interview process:  Following this, your annual report copywriter will organise and undertake a series of interviews with executives to gather their views, which will form the basis of their statements and letters.
4. Core message and theme development: In close collaboration, we’ll put together the central theme (core message) of the report.
5. Writing and feedback: Next, we'll write the report, delivering sections incrementally, so you can feedback, ensuring your expectations are met from the start. Following your feedback the writer will redraft as necessary.
6. Shareholder letter: Re-interview the Chief Exec, before drafting the letter and addressing any feedback.
7. Delivery: Your annual report copywriter will ensure the final report is polished, professional, and conforms to your corporate tone of voice.
8. Finalisation: Finally, our eagle-eyed proofreader will check your annual report, to sure there are no errors before you publish.
