Research Content Services
Acuity’s Research Content Services include writing, editing and repackaging content; editing content for knowledge bases and platforms; and conducting regulatory reviews.
Good content is crucial for building an audience, establishing credibility and driving conversations. Content – whether a research piece, an annual report, marketing or website material or even an email – could be the first point of contact potential clients have with a firm, and high-quality content that resonates with them can help establish reliability.
Our team of highly experienced editors, content managers, writers and supervisory analysts:
edit reports and perform regulatory reviews,
write blogs, white papers and thought leadership pieces,
write content for videos and podcasts,
work with subject-matter experts to compile website material,
repackage long research pieces as blogs or brochures, and
edit and maintain content in databases.
We understand that accuracy and quality of content is essential for global firms to stay ahead of the competition, and that it is crucial to communicate clearly and succinctly. Our team has strong communication skills for interacting daily with subject matter experts, proposal writers, and compliance and legal professionals.
