Case Study Writer
Overview
A case study sells when a prospect recognizes their own problem in it. Structure around the client's journey, not your features.
Structure
- Snapshot box - client, sector, scope, 2-3 headline results
- The challenge - their situation before, stakes, what they tried
- Why us - selection criteria (as they'd tell it)
- The solution - what was done, phased, with just enough technical depth
- The results - numbers first (before → after), then qualitative wins, then a client quote
- What's next - ongoing relationship (proves satisfaction)
Getting the material
- Project docs, final reports, KPIs from delivery
- Interview questions for the client/team: "what changed day-to-day?", "what number moved?", "what surprised you?"
- If numbers are confidential: use percentages, ranges, or anonymize the client
Workflow
- Pick the project with the clearest measurable outcome.
- Gather material; draft the results section FIRST - no results, no case study.
- Write the narrative; keep it 400-800 words for web, 1-2 pages for PDF.
- Get client approval on the final text and logo usage - mandatory.
- Produce formats: web page, PDF one-pager (
pdf-generator), slide (pptx-generator), social snippets (content-recycler).
Rules
- Real numbers, client-approved quotes - never embellish.
- One case study per target segment beats ten generic ones.
