LONG-FORM CONTENT PREPARATION · Workflow idea

Build depth into an article before it reaches your readers.

Start with an approved topic and audience, then prepare a structured article outline and supporting research. Expand complex subjects into sections, draft the article, and assemble proposed visuals and page details for review. Keep the package unpublished until an editor verifies sources, claims, permissions, destination, audience, and release timing.

    Prepare the sections, introduction, conclusion, and proposed supporting visuals in the team’s editorial style.

  4. Review sources, claims, links, and rights

    Have an editor verify important statements, attribution, originality, visual permissions, and any proposed internal or external references.

The handoff

A long-form article draft with its research references and proposed supporting materials, awaiting an editor’s approval.

Keep in mind

Research and generated drafts can include errors, uncredited material, or unsuitable images; publishing can also create public commitments. Verify claims and citations, check reuse rights and links, and require an editor to approve the exact article, visuals, destination, audience, and schedule before publication. Access changes and financial actions require human approval as well.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Prepare the topic and editorial brief

Define the audience, style, length, topic status, and any choices about research depth.

Set source and research expectations

Choose acceptable source types, citation practices, fact-checking requirements, and how uncertainty should be handled.

Keep drafts and assets private

Restrict access to unpublished copy, research notes, and proposed images until the editorial review is complete.

Assign editorial and publishing approvers

Name who verifies the article and who approves publication, external communications, access changes, and financial actions.

Put your next idea to work.

Start with your brief. Make the process your own.
