White papers help people make decisions writes Michael Stelzner, in his definitive book on the subject, Writing White Papers: How to Capture Readers And Keep Them Engaged. This landmark text book on white papers demonstrates their power as a marketing and client relationship building tool.
Michael Stelzner guides the reader through the entire process of white paper writing from developing a topic, through the actual writing, to using the white paper to establish thought leadership, provide education on the topic, and for building a highly targeted client base. The author points out the versatility of white papers and how they can be incorporated successfully at every point in the marketing process. More than just technical papers, the typical five to twelve page white paper can inform the readership on any topic that is relevant to their business.
